What the starting prices leave out
- The platform: required for every purchase and priced separately. Synack offers a Basic Platform at no cost and publishes no price for the full Synack Platform.
- Scope beyond the package: Synack says it prices on testing methodology, test duration and the number of assets tested, so more assets than the package covers means a bigger quote.
- Credit expiry: testing is bought as credits, which expire one year from the purchase date and can be spent on any product except the platform subscription.
- FedRAMP: pricing for FedRAMP Authorized offerings is on request, not listed.

Where Synack sits: PTaaS with list prices
Synack sells pentests as credits on a platform, with point-in-time and continuous options. That is the PTaaS shape in our PTaaS vs traditional consulting comparison, and unlike most PTaaS vendors it puts a number on the entry point.
The nearest comparisons with published figures are Bugcrowd, whose standard pentest units run from $5,000 to $15,000 on AWS Marketplace, and Cobalt, which publishes a $3,500 Autonomous Pentest but no price for its credit tiers. HackerOne publishes no price at all.
Questions buyers ask
How much does a Synack pentest cost?
Synack publishes starting prices for three packages: $4,181 for one AI Sara Pentest, $10,283 for one SynackST standard pentest, and $27,120 for one Synack14 pentest. The Enterprise package has no published price. Synack labels these as its standard pricing; pricing for its FedRAMP Authorized offerings is available on request.
What does the Synack Platform cost?
Synack does not publish a price for the paid Synack Platform. It says the platform is required to purchase any testing product and is a separate line item. A Basic Platform tier is available at no cost, and the paid Synack Platform adds features such as attack surface discovery, analytics, integrations and single sign-on.
What scope does each Synack package cover?
Sara Pentest covers 1 low complexity web app or 100 host IPs. SynackST covers up to 25 unauthenticated web apps, 1 low complexity authenticated web app, or 100 host IPs. Synack14/365 covers up to 50 unauthenticated web apps, 1 authenticated web app, or 250 host IPs. Enterprise is custom scoped.
How do Synack credits work?
Synack sells testing through a credit system. Credits can buy any Synack product except the platform subscription, and they expire one year from the purchase date. Synack says it prices based on testing methodology, test duration and the number of assets tested.
Can I buy Synack through a cloud marketplace?
Yes. Synack says its products are available on the AWS, Azure and GCP marketplaces, and that it works with Carahsoft and is listed on GSA Advantage for US federal buyers.
