The alternatives in detail
In order of how closely each one matches Wiz.

Cyera
4.4Not listed
vs Wiz+0.2
Valuation tripled to $9B in six months, now securing data for 20% of the Fortune 500.
- Maps where sensitive data lives across cloud systems and databases
- Tracks how employees and applications actually use sensitive data
- Secures data and AI systems for roughly 20% of the Fortune 500
Data-first visibility addresses a gap traditional infrastructure security tools miss
Enterprise quote-based pricing requires a sales conversation, no published rates

Zenity
4.2Not listed
vs WizSame
Security and governance for AI agents, from build time through to runtime.
- Security and governance across the agent lifecycle
- Runtime controls rather than pre-deployment review only
- Visibility into what agents actually decided and did
Runtime governance matches how autonomous agents actually fail
Only relevant once agents hold real permissions

CalypsoAI
4.1Not listed
vs Wiz−0.1
AI guardrails, now part of F5, protecting generative AI applications in production.
- Runtime guardrails between the model and the user
- Protection against prompt injection and data leakage
- Policy enforcement across cloud deployments
Backed by an established security vendor rather than a startup
Enterprise procurement through F5 rather than self-serve

Levo.ai
3.7Not listed
vs Wiz−0.5
Runtime security for both traditional APIs and AI-native apps - discovers, red-teams, and firewalls your AI agents, LLMs, and MCP servers, not just your endpoints.
- Runtime visibility into AI agents, LLMs, and MCP servers
- AI red-teaming and threat detection
- Prompt-injection and tool-abuse prevention (AI gateway/firewall)
Covers both traditional API security and AI-specific runtime risk in one platform
No published pricing - requires a demo or sign-up request

Snyk
4.3$25/mo
vs Wiz$2,058 less+0.1Free plan
Filed for a Nasdaq IPO in 2026 at a $7.4 billion valuation.
- Scans code, open-source dependencies, containers, and infrastructure-as-config
- Security built directly into developer workflows rather than added afterward
- Roughly $326M in estimated annual recurring revenue as of 2026
Developer-first design fits security scanning into existing coding workflows
Per-developer pricing can add up quickly for larger engineering organizations

Superagent
4.0Free
vs Wiz−0.2Free plan
An AI security service that finds vulnerabilities in repos, web apps and agents, then fixes them.
- Finds and fixes vulnerabilities rather than only reporting them
- Covers repositories, web applications and AI agents
- Continuous scanning rather than periodic penetration testing
Delivering fixes removes the step where security work usually stalls
Automated fixes still require review before merging
