Phantom
See What Others Miss.
Phantom is a next-generation web application security testing platform — combining deep manual testing, automated scanning, API security, and AI assistance in a single native desktop app. Professional-grade security testing, finally built the right way.
What is Phantom?
Phantom is a next-generation web application security testing platform that combines deep manual testing, automated scanning, API security, and AI assistance in a single native desktop app. It replaces the three-to-five-tool stack most security professionals stitch together today.
Existing tools make you choose — deep manual testing or automated scanning, but never both. Free tiers are deliberately crippled. Paid tiers are priced for enterprises, not practitioners. Bloated desktop apps drain your machine. AI is added as a marketing feature, not a real workflow tool. Phantom was built to fix every one of these.
- →Free tiers that throttle the scanner and disable project saves
- →Automated scanning sold separately at enterprise prices
- →AI added as a marketing feature, not a real workflow tool
- →No single tool covers manual testing, scanning, and API security together
- →Teams juggling multiple tools with no unified workflow
Every tool a security professional needs. One app, one license.
Proxy
Intercept, inspect, and modify HTTP/HTTPS/WebSocket traffic in real time. Full TLS interception, HTTP/2 support, match-and-replace rules, and a traffic history with powerful search and filtering.
Repeater
Manually craft and resend any request. Edit headers, body, method, and URL. Organize requests into collections. Compare responses side by side.
Intruder
Payload-based fuzzing with multiple attack types — Sniper, Battering Ram, Pitchfork, Cluster Bomb. Built-in and custom payload libraries. Unlimited attack threads on Pro.
Scanner
Active and passive vulnerability scanner with OWASP Top 10 coverage. Headless browser crawling for SPAs. API scanning for REST, GraphQL, SOAP, and gRPC. Custom scan checks via YAML.
Site Map
Real-time hierarchical URL tree built from proxy traffic. Technology fingerprint badges, API endpoint grouping, visual network graph, and crawl path views.
Decoder
Transform any value across Base64, URL, HTML, Hex, JWT, SAML, gzip, and more. Chain multiple transforms. Detect encoding automatically.
Comparer
Diff any two requests or responses word-by-word, byte-by-byte. Spot subtle differences in authentication responses, redirects, and payloads.
Sequencer
Analyze the randomness and predictability of session tokens, CSRFs, and any value. Entropy analysis, bit-level statistics, and visual distribution charts.
Collaborator (OAST)
Built-in OAST server for detecting blind vulnerabilities — blind SQLi, blind SSRF, blind XSS, DNS-based issues. Every callback linked back to the request that triggered it.
Phantom AI
AI assistant embedded in every tool. Generate payloads, analyze findings, explain vulnerabilities, suggest remediations — all with full context of your current session and target.
Phantom Checks
Write custom vulnerability scan checks in YAML. Define request templates, match conditions, and severity. Share via Phantom Store. Compatible across teams.
Workflows
Visual automation builder. Chain requests, apply conditions, loop payloads, and trigger scans — without writing code. Automate any repetitive testing task.
Precision manual testing at native speed.
HTTP/HTTPS/WebSocket Interception
Full real-time traffic inspection and modification. TLS for any certificate, any host.
Traffic Search
Query your entire traffic history like a database. Filter by method, status, content type, header, body content, and more.
Match & Replace Rules
Auto-modify any request or response in flight. Regex support. Scoped to specific hosts or paths.
Scope Management
Define include/exclude rules by protocol, host, port, and path. All tools respect scope automatically.
Project Files
Save everything — traffic, findings, configs, notes — to a single .phantom file. Open multiple projects. Auto-save every 60 seconds.
Request Collections
Organize saved requests into named folders. Share collections with your team.
Context Menu Actions
Right-click any request to send it to Repeater, Intruder, Scanner, Decoder, Comparer, or Sequencer instantly.
Keyboard-First UI
Every action has a shortcut. Command palette for everything else. Built for 8-hour daily use.
Deep automated scanning. Without the enterprise price tag.
Active Scanner
OWASP Top 10 coverage. SQLi, XSS, SSRF, XXE, RCE, IDOR, auth bypass, business logic, and more. Confidence scoring on every finding.
Passive Scanner
Runs silently on all proxied traffic. Flags issues without sending a single extra request. Zero noise to the target server.
Headless Browser Crawler
Handles SPAs, React, Vue, Angular, and JavaScript-heavy apps. Discovers endpoints that traditional crawlers miss.
API Scanner
Import OpenAPI, Swagger, GraphQL introspection, Postman collections, SOAP WSDL, or HAR files. Phantom tests every endpoint automatically.
Custom Scan Checks
Write your own vulnerability detectors in YAML. Define the request template, match conditions, and severity. Run alongside built-in checks.
Scan Scheduling
Schedule scans to run at specific times. Set blackout windows for production systems. Get notified when a scan completes.
False Positive Reduction
AI-assisted confidence scoring reduces noise. Mark false positives and Phantom learns your application's baseline.
Scan Comparison
Compare two scan results to track remediation progress and spot regressions across builds.
AI in every tool. Not a chatbot bolted on the side.
AI Payload Generator
Analyzes parameter context, data type, and application behavior to generate targeted attack payloads. Smarter than wordlists.
AI Vulnerability Analyst
Explain any finding in plain English. Ask 'Is this actually exploitable?' or 'What's the impact in this specific stack?' and get a real answer.
AI Remediation Advisor
Every finding includes auto-generated fix guidance with code snippets specific to the detected technology stack. Developers get actionable instructions, not generic advice.
AI Scan Check Generator
Describe a vulnerability in natural language. Phantom AI writes the YAML scan check for you.
AI False Positive Filter
Automatically reduces noise by analyzing response patterns, context, and confidence indicators across all findings.
AI Autonomous Scan Mode
Hand the scanner a target and an objective. Phantom AI crawls, probes, adapts based on responses, and reports — with human-in-the-loop checkpoints before any risky action.
Local AI Mode
Run all AI features entirely on your machine. No data ever leaves your device. Full AI capability with zero cloud dependency.
Multi-Model Support
Choose your AI model. Switch per task. Your choice, your API key.
