Burp AI is a cybersecurity AI add-on for Burp Suite Professional that helps penetration testers and AppSec engineers triage vulnerabilities, explain HTTP traffic, and automate repetitive recon tasks, with pricing bundled into Burp Suite Professional at $475 per user per year. It is built for professional security researchers, bug bounty hunters, and enterprise AppSec teams already invested in the PortSwigger ecosystem.
Developed by PortSwigger — the UK-based company behind Burp Suite, founded in 2008 and used by over 80,000 security professionals across more than 17,000 organizations worldwide — Burp AI introduces AI-driven features directly inside the Burp Suite desktop client. Capabilities include Explainer (which translates complex HTTP requests, responses, and vulnerability findings into plain-language summaries), Explore Issue (an autonomous AI agent that probes discovered issues to confirm exploitability and reduce false positives), and AI-powered Recorded Login Sequences that adapt to changing authentication flows without rewriting macros. Each AI action is metered in "AI credits," with 10,000 free credits included per Burp Suite Professional license and additional credits available for purchase.
Based on our analysis of 870+ AI tools, Burp AI is one of the few offensive security AI products tightly coupled to an industry-standard testing platform rather than a standalone wrapper. Compared to alternatives like PentestGPT, ZAP with AI add-ons, or Caido, Burp AI's main differentiator is that it runs inside the workflow most professional testers already use daily, with PortSwigger's commitment that customer traffic is not used to train external models. The trade-off is that it requires a paid Burp Suite Professional license and is not available in the free Community Edition, making it less accessible to hobbyists or students.

Generates plain-language explanations of selected HTTP requests, responses, and scan issues directly inside Burp Suite. This helps testers quickly understand unfamiliar protocols, encodings, or vulnerability classes without leaving the tool. It is particularly valuable for onboarding junior testers and for accelerating triage of long scan result lists.
An autonomous AI agent that takes a Burp Scanner finding and actively probes the target to confirm whether the issue is genuinely exploitable. This dramatically reduces the manual effort of validating each scanner result and cuts the false positive rate that has historically plagued automated web scanners. The agent operates within the scope of the active Burp project.
Replaces the brittle traditional macro recording system with an AI-driven login flow recorder that adapts when the target's UI changes. This is critical for modern SPAs where button selectors and DOM structure shift frequently. The result is fewer broken authenticated scans during long engagements.
All AI actions consume credits from a pool, with 10,000 free credits included annually per Burp Suite Professional license. This gives teams predictable cost control rather than open-ended API billing. Additional credit packs can be purchased when heavier use is needed for large engagements.
PortSwigger commits that customer data processed through Burp AI is not used to train external AI models. This is a deliberate design decision aimed at penetration testers and AppSec teams working under strict NDAs and client confidentiality requirements. It differentiates Burp AI from ad-hoc use of public chatbots during engagements.
