VulScanner
A simple web app vulnerability scanner for indie devs, solo makers, and small teams. Paste your app URL to get a detailed report for common issues like SQLi, XSS, broken authentication, and misconfigured headers. The report is clean and AI-ready, perfect for dropping into ChatGPT or Claude to generate fixes. Planned features include continuous monitoring with alerts, AI-generated remediation suggestions, and weekly summary reports.
