Blockchain security provider CertiK has launched its AI Auditor, a low-noise, high-signal security tool with open-source integrations for AI coding agents, to strengthen real-time web3 security workflows.
Designed to find vulnerabilities in blockchain code, especially smart contracts, early in the development process, AI Auditor acts like an intelligent assistant for developers and auditors. It scans code, flags risks, and filters out irrelevant warnings so teams can focus on real threats.
The system uses multi-stage validation and live threat intelligence to streamline security workflows while supporting human expertise and future AI-driven innovations.
Before the public rollout, the AI Auditor was tested in real-world conditions for six months and achieved an 88.6% cumulative exact hit rate across 35 tested web3 security incidents from 2026, as noted by CertiK.
With this launch, the team wants to make blockchain security faster and more proactive, helping web3 teams catch and fix issues before they become costly exploits.
“The question is no longer simply whether AI can find vulnerabilities, but whether it can genuinely help development teams surface the security issues worth addressing, earlier,” said Ronghui Gu, Co-founder of CertiK. “By filtering out endless false positives, our AI Auditor delivers high-signal, actionable clarity—turning security from a traditional bottleneck into a seamless accelerator for web3 teams.”
Founded by Yale and Columbia computer science professors, CertiK specializes in smart contract audits and web3 infrastructure, using advanced AI tools and formal verification to uncover vulnerabilities and protect projects.
The company has worked with more than 5,000 enterprise clients, secured over $600 billion in digital assets, and flagged upwards of 180,000 vulnerabilities across its eight-year history.
Its client list includes Binance, Ethereum Foundation, BNB Chain, Aptos, Ripple, Polygon, and TON. Backing came from 12 institutional investors, including Sequoia Capital, Coatue Management, and Goldman Sachs, pushing the company’s valuation past $2 billion.
The release is part of CertiK’s bigger AI plan, with further capabilities under development to integrate security into coding, compliance, and institutional monitoring systems.
