Automating Security Design Reviews with AI

Security Design Reviews have been one of the most effective ways to catch vulnerabilities early, before code is written. They've also been one of the hardest to scale. Most AppSec teams can only review a fraction of the features being built, leaving the rest to checklists, gut calls, or luck. As AI-generated code accelerates development velocity, this gap is only getting wider.

Seezo automates Security Design Reviews using AI. Our platform ingests your design documents from tools like Confluence, Google Docs, and SharePoint, analyzes them for security-relevant patterns, and generates tailored security requirements that flow directly into Jira, Slack, or wherever your developers work. Every result is explainable, customizable to your company's context, and mapped to the compliance frameworks you care about.

We started Seezo in 2023 because we spent over a decade doing this work manually and knew it could be better. We're backed by Accel and a group of investors and operators who share our belief that world-class AppSec shouldn't require an army of consultants. It should be built into how software gets made.
