Question 1

What vulnerabilities does GeekWala detect?

Accepted Answer

We scan your dependencies against the OSV (Open Source Vulnerabilities) database, which aggregates CVEs and security advisories from npm, PyPI, Packagist, Maven, GitHub Security Advisories, and more. We detect known vulnerabilities in the specific versions you're using and show severity ratings, CVE IDs, and remediation steps.

Question 2

Can I cancel my subscription anytime?

Accepted Answer

Yes! You can cancel your Pro subscription at any time from the Billing page. Your Pro features remain active until the end of your current monthly or annual billing period. Your subscription will not renew after cancellation.

Question 3

What payment methods do you accept?

Accepted Answer

We accept all major credit cards (Visa, Mastercard, American Express) and debit cards through our secure payment processor, Stripe. We don't store your card details on our servers.

Question 4

Do you offer a free trial?

Accepted Answer

Yes — every new account gets a 7-day Pro trial with no credit card required. You'll have full access to Pro features (scheduled scans, vulnerability alerts, unlimited projects, export, 1-year scan history). If you don't upgrade by the end of the trial, your account simply reverts to the Free tier.

Question 5

Can I still use the platform for free?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely! Our Free tier includes 5 projects, 200 packages, and 50 scans per month—perfect for individual developers or small teams. You get full access to vulnerability scanning across multiple ecosystems.

Question 6

How do scheduled scans work?

Accepted Answer

With Pro, you can configure automatic scans to run daily, weekly, or monthly. We'll check your projects against the latest vulnerability database and send you email notifications if new CVEs are discovered. Stay protected without manual effort.

Question 7

What ecosystems do you support?

Accepted Answer

We support npm (JavaScript/Node.js), PyPI (Python), Packagist (PHP), Maven (Java), Go, crates.io (Rust), RubyGems, and NuGet (.NET).

Question 8

How does GitHub repository importing work?

Accepted Answer

Free users can import dependencies from 1 GitHub repository by connecting their GitHub account. Pro users get up to 0 repository imports. We automatically scan your repository for supported dependency files (package.json, requirements.txt, composer.json, pom.xml, etc.) and import them into your projects. You can re-scan the same repository anytime to check for new vulnerabilities.

Question 9

How does annual billing work?

Accepted Answer

When you choose annual billing, you pay $99 upfront for 12 months of Pro access—that's $8.25/month, a 31% savings compared to monthly billing. Your subscription will automatically renew unless you cancel.

Question 10

How does GeekWala compare to Snyk?

Accepted Answer

Snyk is an all-in-one security platform (SAST, containers, licenses). GeekWala focuses on dependency vulnerability scanning with EPSS exploit prioritization and CISA KEV data — at a flat rate instead of per-developer pricing. See our full comparison at /compare/snyk.

Question 11

How does GeekWala compare to npm audit?

Accepted Answer

npm audit shows CVSS severity for npm packages. GeekWala adds EPSS exploit probability, CISA KEV active-exploit flags, and covers 8 ecosystems — not just npm. See our full comparison at /compare/npm-audit.

Question 12

How does GeekWala compare to Dependabot?

Accepted Answer

Dependabot opens PRs automatically on GitHub. GeekWala tells you which of those PRs to merge first using real exploitation data. They work great together. See our full comparison at /compare/dependabot.

Question 13

Do you offer team or enterprise pricing?

Accepted Answer

Yes! Contact our sales team to discuss custom plans for larger teams. We offer volume discounts and can accommodate compliance requirements. Reach us at /contact?type=team.
