    Snyk: when it makes sense.

    Snyk fits teams with AI dev seeking code validation; for legacy without AI, other solutions suffice.

    Keep if

    You use AI-generated code (Claude, Cursor, etc.).. You want SAST + SCA + container scanned.

    Challenge if

    You're solo or 2-3 person only.. You're looking for very cheap solution.
