Is Snyk the same thing?
Snyk is a strong choice for finding vulnerable dependencies and insecure code patterns before they ship. It reads your repository, which is exactly what PushFix deliberately does not do: PushFix looks at the running site the way a visitor and an attacker would.
Genuinely better at this
- Open-source and transitive dependency vulnerabilities with fix pull requests
- Static analysis of your own source inside the pipeline
- Container and infrastructure-as-code scanning
- Continuous monitoring that re-alerts when a new CVE lands
What Snyk does not attempt
- Anything observable only at runtime: headers, sessions, exposed endpoints
- SEO, accessibility, performance and production-readiness checks
- Broken links, dead forms and functional flows on the live app
- Authorization gaps that only appear when two roles are compared
It is usually not either / or
Most teams keep Snyk for the job it was built for and add a review of the running app beside it. The next two rows say which situation is yours, and neither of them is a sales pitch: one of them tells you to stay put.
PushFix and Snyk, side by side
6 dimensions, 6 verdicts. Every row is checkable against the other tool's own documentation.
| Dimension | PushFix | Snyk |
|---|---|---|
| Requires repository or source access | No | Yes |
| Tests the deployed app as a visitor | Yes | No |
| Runs without installing anything in CI | Yes | No |
| Security findings with evidence and reproduction | Yes | Partial |
| SEO, accessibility and performance review | Yes | No |
| Verifies a fix on the next run | Yes | Partial |
Yes means supported out of the box. Partial means it can be reached with setup, a plugin, or an extra product. No means the tool was not built for that job, not that it is a bad tool.
Find your situation
Read down the left-hand labels until one of them is about you.
Keep Snyk when
You want vulnerability management wired into pull requests and a dependency graph you can audit. If you already run Snyk, keep it, and add a PushFix review for the runtime surface it cannot see.
snyk.ioReach for PushFix when
You ship with an AI builder, do not have a clean dependency pipeline, or want one review that covers security, SEO, accessibility, performance and launch readiness at once, with evidence behind every finding.
Nothing on this page asks you to take our word for it. Both columns are checkable: Snyk's own docs are at snyk.io, and the fastest way to judge ours is to run one review on a staging URL and read the findings.
The rest of the field
A different tool usually means a different question, not a better one.
