Levo.ai is a developer-first API Security platform (expanding into AI security) — eBPF discovery + auto-OpenAPI, shift-left DAST (OWASP API Top 10, BOLA), in-environment sensitive-data discovery, runtime protection and AI/MCP security. Its edge is developer-first CI/CD testing, exploit-proof low-FP findings, affordability and India data residency. Honest: it’s young (2021), small (~32 staff), API-centric not full AppSec, and its runtime/AI features are newer than the incumbents’ — for the most mature runtime protection weigh Salt, Traceable or Akamai. TechBag scopes it & adds INR/GST/PO.
The five pieces of the platform
Vendors love diagrams; buyers need to know what they’re actually operating. Here’s the whole platform, demystified.
Discover
You can’t secure what you can’t see. Levo’s eBPF-powered sensors watch live traffic and auto-discover ALL your APIs — including shadow and zombie endpoints — across environments, then auto-generate OpenAPI specs from what’s actually running (‘the network doesn’t lie’). The same in-environment view detects PII/PHI and secrets in API payloads. An accurate inventory with no manual docs. See every API, and the sensitive data flowing through it.
Test
The heart of Levo: offensive, exploit-aware API security testing (DAST-for-APIs) that runs in CI/CD. It fires 1000+ payloads to validate authentication and authorization (BOLA / broken object level authorization), injection and misconfiguration against the OWASP API Security Top 10 — and doesn’t just flag a vuln, it proves the exploit. Runtime context keeps false positives low. Catch API vulns before they ship. Found a vuln → proved the exploit.
Protect
At runtime, Levo adds inline behavioral threat detection — it learns baseline API behavior and blocks abuse. And from 2025 it extends into AI security: LLM monitoring, AI-agent governance, prompt-injection detection, MCP (Model Context Protocol) server security and vector-store protection. From API runtime to AI runtime. Guard what’s live — APIs today, AI agents next.
Comply
Because sensitive-data discovery runs IN-ENVIRONMENT (no payloads exfiltrated to a cloud), Levo maps API data exposure to HIPAA, GDPR, PCI and India’s DPDPA — useful evidence for audits and for BFSI teams that can’t send data offshore. Turn discovery into compliance proof. Know where regulated data flows, without moving it.
Stay India-resident
For Indian BFSI, Levo runs a dedicated India data-residency region (india-1.levo.ai) and is registered locally as LEVO.AI INDIA PRIVATE LIMITED in Hyderabad, Telangana — DSCI-recognized, SOC 2 / ISO 27001 certified. Marquee Indian customers cited include Axis Bank, Axis Finance, Angel One and IIB. Data stays in India. A posture that resonates with Indian BFSI.
One agent on every machine, one console over all of them — modules attach without a second operational world.
Twelve capabilities. Discover, test, protect.
Levo discovers every API from live traffic and tests it before it ships — developer-first, exploit-proof — the API Security platform from portfolio, and paired with the human firewall.
eBPF API Discovery — incl. Shadow & Zombie APIs
eBPF-powered sensors watch live traffic and auto-discover ALL your APIs — including undocumented (shadow) and deprecated-but-still-live (zombie) endpoints where breaches hide — across environments, with no code changes. ‘The network doesn’t lie.’ An accurate, always-current inventory with no blind spots. See every API you actually run.
Auto-Generate OpenAPI Specs
Levo generates OpenAPI (Swagger) specs automatically from real, observed traffic — not stale hand-written docs. Accurate API documentation as a by-product of discovery, kept current as APIs change. Docs that match reality. Generated, not maintained.
Sensitive-Data Discovery (In-Environment)
Detects PII/PHI and secrets flowing through API payloads — entirely IN your environment, with no data exfiltrated to a cloud — so you know exactly where regulated data travels. Find regulated data in-flight. Without moving it offshore.
Shift-Left API Security Testing (DAST)
Offensive, exploit-aware API testing that runs in CI/CD — 1000+ payloads against your live endpoints to catch vulnerabilities before they ship. Shift security LEFT, into the pipeline. Test APIs like an attacker would, automatically.
OWASP API Security Top 10 Coverage
Validates authentication and authorization (BOLA / broken object level authorization), injection, misconfiguration and more — systematically covering the OWASP API Security Top 10, the API-specific risk list that a generic scanner misses. The API risks that actually matter. Covered by design.
Exploit-Aware Testing, Low False Positives
Levo doesn’t just flag a possible vuln — it proves the exploit, using runtime context to keep false positives low. Fewer noisy tickets, more real findings developers trust. Found a vuln → proved it. Signal, not noise.
CI/CD-Native, Developer-First Workflow
‘Built for developers, by developers’: Levo plugs into the pipeline so API security testing runs on every build, with results where engineers already work — not a separate security silo. Security in the developer’s flow. Not bolted on after ship.
Runtime API Threat Detection & Blocking
Inline behavioral protection that learns baseline API behavior and detects — and blocks — abuse in real time. (Honest: runtime protection is newer here than at the runtime-first incumbents.) Guard live APIs. Behavioral, learned from your own traffic.
AI Security & LLM Monitoring (2025)
New in 2025: monitor LLM usage, govern AI agents and detect prompt-injection — extending Levo from API runtime into AI runtime. (Honest: these features are new and unproven at large scale.) Secure the AI layer too. Emerging, but the same runtime lens.
MCP Server & Vector-Store Security
Levo secures Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers and protects vector stores — the new plumbing of AI-agent systems — treating them as the next class of API-like surface to defend. The new AI attack surface. Secured with the same discovery-and-test lens.
Compliance Mapping (HIPAA/GDPR/PCI/DPDPA)
Maps discovered sensitive-data exposure to HIPAA, GDPR, PCI and India’s DPDPA — with an India data-residency region (india-1) so BFSI data stays in-country. Turn discovery into audit evidence. Compliance that respects data residency.

Here’s what genuinely sets Levo.ai apart (and where a different tool fits better).
Developer-first API security — shift-left testing right in CI/CD
The single biggest reason teams choose Levo.ai is its DEVELOPER-FIRST approach: ‘built for developers, by developers’, it runs offensive API security testing (DAST-for-APIs) directly in CI/CD, so vulnerabilities are caught before they ship rather than found in production. The problem it solves: APIs are the modern attack surface, but security testing has traditionally sat in a separate team, late in the cycle — slow, noisy, and disconnected from where engineers work; developers get a wall of findings after release and ignore most of them. What Levo provides: exploit-aware tests (1000+ payloads) that plug into the pipeline and validate authentication and authorization (BOLA), injection and misconfiguration against the OWASP API Security Top 10 on every build — and rather than just flagging a possible issue, Levo proves the exploit, using runtime context to keep false positives low so developers trust the findings. Why it matters: shifting API security LEFT, into the developer’s flow, means vulnerabilities are fixed cheaply before release and security stops being a release-blocking bottleneck. For engineering-led organisations, that developer-first posture is Levo’s defining strength. The value: Levo runs exploit-aware API security testing in CI/CD with low false positives — catch API vulns before they ship, in the developer’s flow. For shift-left API security, this matters. TechBag helps Indian teams adopt Levo with INR/GST invoicing and honest advisory. TechBag helps you secure APIs before they reach production.
eBPF discovery + auto-OpenAPI — you can't secure what you can't see
A defining technical strength of Levo is DISCOVERY: eBPF-powered sensors watch live traffic and auto-discover ALL your APIs — including shadow (undocumented) and zombie (deprecated-but-live) endpoints — across environments, then auto-generate OpenAPI specs from what’s actually running. The problem it solves: most organisations don’t truly know how many APIs they run; hand-maintained inventories and docs go stale immediately, and the endpoints nobody remembers are exactly where breaches happen. What Levo provides: an accurate, always-current API inventory built from real traffic (‘the network doesn’t lie’), with OpenAPI specs generated automatically as a by-product — no manual documentation, no code changes to instrument. The same in-environment view detects PII/PHI and secrets in payloads, so you also see where sensitive data flows. Why it matters: you cannot test or protect an API you don’t know exists — accurate discovery is the foundation everything else stands on, and eBPF makes it low-friction and comprehensive. The value: Levo’s eBPF sensors auto-discover every API (including shadow and zombie endpoints) and auto-generate OpenAPI specs from live traffic — an accurate inventory with no manual docs. For API visibility, this matters. TechBag helps enterprises scope Levo’s discovery honestly. TechBag helps you see every API you actually run.
In-environment sensitive-data discovery + India data residency — built for BFSI
A key strength for regulated buyers is that Levo does sensitive-data discovery IN-ENVIRONMENT: it detects PII/PHI and secrets in API payloads without exfiltrating any data to a cloud, and it runs a dedicated India data-residency region — a posture that resonates strongly with Indian BFSI. The problem it solves: banks, insurers and brokers can’t send customer data offshore for scanning, and they must prove where regulated data flows for HIPAA, GDPR, PCI and India’s DPDPA — most API tools that route payloads to a vendor cloud are a non-starter here. What Levo provides: data discovery that stays inside your environment, exposure mapped to those regulations, and an India region (india-1.levo.ai) plus a local entity (LEVO.AI INDIA PRIVATE LIMITED, registered in Hyderabad, Telangana) — DSCI-recognized, SOC 2 / ISO 27001 certified. Levo cites marquee Indian BFSI customers including Axis Bank, Axis Finance, Angel One and the Insurance Information Bureau of India (IIB). Why it matters: for Indian financial-services teams, data residency and no-exfiltration aren’t nice-to-haves — they’re gating requirements, and Levo is built to meet them. The value: Levo discovers sensitive data in-environment (no exfiltration) and offers India data residency — a compliance-and-residency posture built for Indian BFSI. For regulated API security, this matters. TechBag helps Indian BFSI adopt Levo with local invoicing and support. TechBag helps you secure APIs without moving data offshore.
Affordable, exploit-proof testing — and TechBag makes it local (INR, GST, PO)
A practical strength of Levo is that it delivers exploit-aware API security testing at a price point and with a free on-ramp that the larger incumbents rarely match — and for Indian organisations TechBag adds the local billing and honest advisory that make adopting it straightforward. Levo the company: founded in 2021 by Buchi Reddy (Co-Founder & CEO, an ex-Traceable AI founding member and ex-AppDynamics engineer) and Harish Nataraj (Co-Founder & CPO), US-headquartered (Austin, TX / San Francisco Bay Area). It has raised seed funding (reported ~$4M+; backers include Foundation Capital, Engineering Capital, Cota Capital and Streamlined Ventures), is featured in the Gartner Market Guide for API Protection, and offers a ‘Forever Free’ tier for API contract testing plus free auto-OpenAPI generation — a genuinely low-risk way to try it before committing. The full platform is quote-only. Honest scale: Levo is young and small (~32 staff, mid-2026) — a real, funded, Gartner-recognized vendor, but early-stage; weigh that against the maturity of Salt Security, Traceable AI or Akamai. Where TechBag adds value: Levo’s platform is quote-only in USD — so TechBag adds INR invoicing, 18% GST, procurement/PO support, and honest advisory on whether Levo (or Salt, Traceable, Akamai, Wallarm or StackHawk) is the right fit. The value: Levo pairs exploit-proof, low-false-positive testing with a free tier and affordability — and TechBag adds INR/GST invoicing, PO support and honest advisory. TechBag supplies it, made local for India. TechBag helps you pick and buy the right API security tool, not the loudest brand.
One lens from API runtime to AI runtime — MCP and LLM security
A forward-looking strength of Levo is that it extends its discover-and-test lens from APIs into the emerging AI attack surface: from 2025 it adds LLM monitoring, AI-agent governance, prompt-injection detection, MCP (Model Context Protocol) server security and vector-store protection. The problem it solves: as teams ship LLM apps and AI agents, a whole new class of runtime surface appears — MCP servers, vector stores, agent tool-calls — that behaves like APIs and carries similar authorization, injection and data-exposure risks, but that traditional API tools don’t cover. What Levo provides: the same runtime-context approach applied to AI — monitor how LLMs are used, govern what agents can do, detect prompt-injection, and secure MCP servers and vector stores — so API security and AI security sit under one lens rather than two disconnected tools. Why it matters: for teams already building with AI agents, having discovery, testing and protection extend into the AI layer avoids yet another point tool. (Honest: these AI-security features are NEW as of 2025 and unproven at large scale — treat them as an emerging, promising direction, not a mature product.) The value: Levo extends API security into AI security — MCP server security, LLM monitoring and prompt-injection detection under one runtime lens. For teams adopting AI agents, this matters. TechBag helps enterprises scope Levo’s AI-security features honestly. TechBag helps you secure APIs and the AI layer with one vendor.
The honest scope
Levo.ai is a developer-first API Security platform — eBPF API discovery and auto-OpenAPI, shift-left DAST-for-APIs against the OWASP API Security Top 10, in-environment sensitive-data discovery, runtime protection, and (new in 2025) AI/MCP security — whose edge is developer-first CI/CD testing, low-false-positive exploit-proof findings, eBPF discovery, affordability and an India data-residency posture. From Levo, Inc. (founded 2021; US-HQ; seed-funded). The honest framing — strengths, and where a rival or a different approach fits better. Levo’s strengths are genuine, but several honest caveats matter. (1) It is YOUNG and SMALL — founded 2021, ~32 staff (mid-2026), lightly funded (reported ~$4M+ seed). It is a real, funded, Gartner-cited vendor, but early-stage; the incumbents are far larger. (2) It is API-CENTRIC, not a full application-security suite — no SAST/SCA breadth, not a WAF replacement, not a CNAPP. (3) Its runtime API PROTECTION is less battle-tested than the runtime-first incumbents. (4) Its AI-security features are NEW (2025) and unproven at large scale. (5) Its install base is smaller than the leaders’. Where rivals fit better: Salt Security is the category leader in runtime API protection — larger and more mature (Levo counters on developer-first CI/CD testing and affordability). Traceable AI is a direct peer, bigger on runtime/threat depth (a nice honest detail: Levo’s CEO is an ex-Traceable founding member). Akamai API Security — Akamai acquired Noname Security (~$450M, completed June 2024) — is a WAF/CDN-backed runtime heavyweight; Cloudflare and Akamai also bundle API security into their WAF/CDN. Wallarm is established runtime API protection and WAAP. StackHawk (and 42Crunch, APIsec, Akto) are closest to Levo’s shift-left developer-testing niche. So the honest positioning: for developer-first shift-left API discovery and testing, and for Indian BFSI teams wanting in-environment data discovery and India data residency, Levo is an excellent, affordable choice; for the largest-scale, most mature runtime API protection, Salt, Traceable or Akamai are more battle-tested. TechBag advises honestly — helping you pick the right API security tool, not the loudest brand — and adds INR/GST, PO support and local billing.

Quick poll — what’s driving your evaluation?
Talk to an advisor“Levo’s eBPF discovery found APIs we’d completely forgotten about — shadow and zombie endpoints that never made it into any inventory. The auto-generated OpenAPI specs matched what was actually running, not stale docs.”
“Running exploit-aware API tests in CI/CD changed how our developers work — findings come with a proven exploit and almost no false positives, so engineers actually fix them instead of ignoring the queue.”
“Data residency was a gating requirement for us — we can’t send customer payloads offshore. Levo’s in-environment discovery and India region made it viable where cloud-scanning tools were a non-starter. TechBag scoped the DPDPA mapping.”
“Honest: Levo is a young, small vendor — we weighed it against Salt and Traceable, which are more mature on runtime protection. TechBag was candid about that trade-off; we chose Levo for developer-first testing and India residency, eyes open.”
“The full platform is quote-only and priced in USD. TechBag scoped what we actually needed, invoiced in INR with GST, and handled the PO — made adopting an early-stage US vendor straightforward for our procurement.”
“We started on the Forever Free tier for contract testing to prove the value before committing budget — a genuinely low-risk on-ramp. Then we scoped the paid platform with TechBag once the fit was clear.”
“The AI-security and MCP features are promising — we’re building with LLM agents — but they’re new (2025) and we’re treating them as emerging, not proven at scale. TechBag helped us separate the roadmap from the marketing.”
“For runtime API protection at our scale we still lean on a WAF/CDN-backed layer — Levo’s runtime piece is newer. But for shift-left discovery and testing it’s excellent, and the honest advice from TechBag set expectations right.”
