PromptBrake

AI Security

PromptBrake is a paid AI security testing platform for live LLM endpoints, AI APIs, and chatbots. It runs repeatable adversarial scans for prompt injection, data leakage, unsafe tool behavior, output-control bypasses, memory exposure, retrieval injection, and launch-readiness failures, then reports PASS, WARN, and FAIL findings with evidence and remediation guidance.

Key Features
  • • OAuth 2.1 authorization-server support for MCP applications
  • • PKCE for authorization-code flows
  • • Scopes and tool permissions for delegated access
  • • prompt injection testing
  • • AI endpoint regression scans
  • • self-hosted enterprise runner

WorkOS MCP Auth - Pros & Cons

Pros

  • ✓Uses established delegated-authorization patterns instead of shared API keys
  • ✓Fits products already using WorkOS identity services
  • ✓Scopes can make agent permissions understandable to users and operators

Cons

  • ✗Authentication does not prevent unsafe tool design or excessive scopes
  • ✗The general pricing page does not isolate an MCP-specific price
  • ✗Adding an identity vendor creates operational and migration dependencies

PromptBrake - Pros & Cons

Pros

  • ✓Tests the real application endpoint instead of only evaluating a standalone prompt, so results reflect prompts, tools, retrieval, auth path, and response handling together
  • ✓Covers 13 checks and 60+ failure patterns, including prompt injection, context leaks, tool misuse, schema escape, memory exposure, retrieval injection, and chatbot launch checks
  • ✓Reports PASS, WARN, and FAIL outcomes with the strongest triggering prompt, endpoint response evidence, remediation guidance, and a targeted re-test path
  • ✓Pro Trial at $99/month includes workflow-oriented capabilities such as reports, compare view, baseline diff, and CI-ready release-gate preview
  • ✓Enterprise Trial includes 3 hosted app scans plus 14 private runner scans, with the private runner trial lasting 14 days
  • ✓Enterprise Docker runner can run on a customer machine, VM, or CI worker while keeping prompts, credentials, and scan results local

Cons

  • ✗Requires a working live, dev, or staging API endpoint because PromptBrake tests behavior by sending adversarial prompts to the endpoint
  • ✗Scout Trial is positioned as a lower-volume first pass and does not include the fuller release workflow described for Pro
  • ✗Enterprise private runner pricing starts at $499/month after the trial, which may be high for small teams that only need occasional hosted scans
  • ✗The product focuses on AI behavior security and does not replace application penetration testing, infrastructure review, authentication review, or authorization testing
  • ✗A PASS result is point-in-time evidence for the tested endpoint and test suite, not a permanent guarantee against future model, retrieval, prompt, or tool regressions
