Automate API Security across Agentic Workflows

42Crunch is an API security platform that automates security across the full API lifecycle—from design and development to runtime protection. It provides deterministic guardrails for AI agents interacting with enterprise APIs, including OpenAPI contract governance, vulnerability scanning, and runtime threat blocking. The platform is designed to integrate into CI/CD pipelines and agentic AI workflows without requiring API re-architecture.
42Crunch enforces API security via audit, scanning, and a micro-firewall runtime protection layer that validates every request against OpenAPI contracts and blocks threats in real time.
