xlogs vs Vibe App Scanner
Both xlogs and Vibe App Scanner scan a deployed AI-built app from its URL, read-only, and report security issues. They overlap a lot. Here is an honest look at where they differ and when each one fits. It comes from us, so read it knowing we make xlogs.
See what xlogs finds on your app
What they share
Both are live scanners: you paste your app's URL and they check the deployed app the way a visitor could, without touching your source code. Both target people building with AI tools rather than security engineers. If you just want to know whether your live app is leaking something, either one gets you started for free.
Where xlogs focuses
xlogs is built around the fix, not just the finding. Every issue comes with a plain-English explanation and a copy-paste instruction written for your AI coding tool (Lovable, Cursor, Claude Code), plus an independent Verify: re-scan and xlogs confirms the issue is actually gone. It uses no AI at runtime, so the same app always produces the same result. And it holds a strict line on false alarms: a finding is only marked critical when there is real evidence behind it.
It has also grown past the live scan since this page was first written. You can point it at a public GitHub repo for 29 supply-chain checks, read-only and never executed, covering install hooks, obfuscated code, credential access and prompt injection hidden in AI-instruction files. You can drop a server access log in and see which paths people are probing for, parsed in your browser with nothing uploaded. And you can hold both at once, which is the part nothing else here does: your log says what was requested, the scan says what you actually serve, and only together do they tell you someone asked for your environment file and found it.
Vibe App Scanner has been at this longer and has a much larger library of published security content, plus paid monitoring. If breadth of guides or built-in monitoring matters most to you, that is a real strength on their side.
| xlogs | Vibe App Scanner | |
|---|---|---|
| How you run it | Paste a URL, no signup | Paste a URL |
| What it scans | Your live, deployed app (read-only) | Your live, deployed app (read-only) |
| The fix | Plain-English, copy-paste for your AI coding tool, with each finding | Flags issues with remediation guidance |
| Verify a fix | Re-scan proves the issue is gone, included | Ongoing monitoring on paid plans |
| AI at runtime | None; deterministic and reproducible | Not stated |
| False-alarm posture | Severity must be earned; calm on low-confidence findings | Not stated |
| Content library | 81 published pages: methodology, per-platform hubs, per-vulnerability guides | Large and established |
| Repo scanning | 29 supply-chain checks on a public repo, read-only | Not stated |
| Access log analysis | Drop an access log: parsed in your browser, never uploaded | Not stated |
| Joins probes to exposure | Yes. Your log says what was requested, the scan says what you serve | Not stated |
Common questions
Is xlogs a Vibe App Scanner alternative?
Yes, for the core job: both scan a deployed AI-built app from its URL for issues like an open database, exposed keys, and missing protections. xlogs leans on the fix-and-verify loop and honest severity; Vibe App Scanner has a larger content library and paid monitoring. Try xlogs free above and compare on your own app.
Which should I use?
If you want a plain-English fix you can hand straight to your AI coding tool and then prove it worked, xlogs is built for exactly that. If you want the broadest library of security guides and built-in monitoring today, Vibe App Scanner is further along there. They are not mutually exclusive.
