Where Astra sits: published prices, per target
Astra sells pentesting as an annual plan per target with a vulnerability management dashboard, the PTaaS shape in our PTaaS vs traditional consulting comparison. Per-target pricing is easy to budget for one or two apps and adds up across a portfolio, so count your targets using Astra’s rule before comparing.
Other vendors that publish figures: Synack (packages from $4,181), Bugcrowd (units from $5,000) and Cobalt ($3,500 Autonomous Pentest; credit tiers quoted). For what a manual pentest should include, see what’s included in a pentest.
