Heeler

Heeler is a security startup with the slogan "Scale application security to support the needs of engineering with code, runtime and business context." The company's offering involves combining context-aware threat modeling, life cycle management, and response orchestration. This approach aims to identify high-impact risks earlier, reduce late-stage vulnerabilities, and lower remediation costs. Today, AppSec teams encounter significant challenges such as prioritizing vulnerabilities, conducting impact analysis, performing threat modeling, and guiding developers. Heeler's patent-pending ProductDNA technology automates these high-friction and expensive tasks, integrating seamlessly into existing workflows. By combining foundational AppSec capabilities with deep runtime context and response orchestration, Heeler seeks to provide a transformational impact unattainable with today’s solutions. As a result, the startup aims to enhance developers' security impact and ensure applications are secure, resilient, and ready for future threats. Founded in 2023, Heeler is positioned to address the inefficiencies and ad hoc nature of current AppSec processes, with the potential to disrupt the traditional approaches to application security. As of now, the company has not disclosed its industries, headquarters, or any information about its last investment or investors.
