Comparison
LyraShield AI vs Mobb
How LyraShield AI compares to Mobb for remediation-first auto-fix. Evidence states, coverage framework, approval-gated fixes, and deployment model differences.
Last reviewed:
Factual comparison. Mobb is an AI-powered remediation platform that takes SAST scanner results as input and generates fix PRs, with a newer IDE layer (Mobb Vibe Shield) for AI-coding security. LyraShield AI is release assurance for AI-built apps with its own agentic pentest, SCA, and secrets scanning, producing immutable evidence reports and gating fixes behind approvals. The two target different parts of the workflow; neither replaces the other.
Core approach
| Aspect | LyraShield AI | Mobb |
|---|---|---|
| Primary focus | Evidence-backed release assurance for AI-built apps | Fix SAST findings at scale; “platform for AI code trust” |
| Scanning approach | Agentic engine, coverage framework, evidence states | Ingests external SAST results, or self-scans via Opengrep (SAST) |
| Finding lifecycle | Detected → independently verified → retest-confirmed or inconclusive | Ingested → auto-triaged (Fixable / Irrelevant / Remaining) → fix PR or commit |
| Control framework | Vibe Security 50 (43 code/URL review + 7 evidence-required) | No published control framework; auto-triage classification |
| Fix model | Approval-gated; PR execution blocked until a server-generated patch is bound to exact approval | Deterministic rules plus GenAI validation; fixes re-scanned to confirm cleared; PR or direct commit |
| AI-generated code focus | Built for AI-built apps; scans agent rules, MCP configs, AI patterns | Mobb Vibe Shield IDE/MCP layer; Mobb Tracy AI-code governance dashboards |
Capability comparison
| Capability | LyraShield AI | Mobb |
|---|---|---|
| Static analysis (SAST) | Via engine | Processes external SAST findings; or self-scans via Opengrep |
| Custom rules | Not a primary feature | No (works from scanner output) |
| SCA (dependency scanning) | Yes (native) | Not a core capability |
| Secret scanning | Yes (engine + GitHub Action) | Not a core capability |
| Agentic pentest | Yes (core) | No |
| Evidence states | Yes (4 states) | No explicit evidence-state model |
| Deterministic retest | Yes | Re-scan to confirm finding cleared |
| Coverage receipts | Yes (per-control) | No |
| Assurance reports | Yes (immutable snapshots) | ROI dashboard metrics; no immutable evidence artifacts |
| Approval-gated fixes | Yes (server-generated patch bound to approval) | Developer PR review is the gate; no policy/approval engine |
| Multi-scanner input | Engine + GitHub Action + SARIF | Yes (Checkmarx, Fortify, Snyk, CodeQL, SonarQube, Semgrep/Opengrep, Polaris) |
| MCP / IDE integration | Yes (23+ agents) | Yes (Mobb Vibe Shield via MCP across Copilot, Cursor, Claude, JetBrains, and more) |
| Fix languages | Language-agnostic | Java, JavaScript/TypeScript, C#, Python |
Deployment and pricing
| Aspect | LyraShield AI | Mobb |
|---|---|---|
| Deployment | Hosted + CLI + MCP + GitHub Action | SaaS (multi-tenant), single-tenant, on-prem (AWS); GitHub/GitLab/Azure DevOps/Bitbucket; CLI, API, IDE/MCP |
| Pricing | Open beta; pricing announced as it matures | Community free (public repos); Development Teams $20/dev/mo; Team $40/dev/mo (5–15 contributors); Enterprise contact-sales |
| Languages | Language-agnostic | Fixes in Java, JavaScript/TypeScript, C#, Python (Opengrep scans 30+) |
When to use which
Use LyraShield AI when
- You need release assurance with immutable evidence reports for release decisions
- You want agentic pentest, SCA, and secrets scanning in one product rather than fixing external SAST output
- Your app is AI-built and you want security checks inside your AI coding agent via MCP
- You want fixes gated behind explicit approval before a patch is applied
- You need coverage receipts mapping to a control framework
Use Mobb when
- You already have a SAST scanner deployed and a backlog of findings to fix at scale
- You want multi-scanner ingestion (Checkmarx, Fortify, Snyk, CodeQL, SonarQube, Semgrep/Opengrep) normalized into fix PRs
- You want an anti-hallucination fix methodology (deterministic rules plus GenAI validation, re-scan to confirm cleared)
- You need real-time IDE/MCP security inside AI coding assistants (Mobb Vibe Shield)
- You want published, per-developer pricing with a free tier for public repos

Frequently asked questions
- Does LyraShield replace Mobb?
- No. Mobb is an AI-powered remediation platform that ingests SAST results from Checkmarx, Fortify, Snyk, CodeQL, SonarQube, and Opengrep, auto-triages into Fixable, Irrelevant, Remaining, and generates fixes re-scanned to confirm clearance. LyraShield in open beta is a full assurance loop with its own agentic pentest, SCA, and secrets.
- Can I use Mobb and LyraShield together?
- Yes. LyraShield can provide detection with SARIF output for the assurance record, while Mobb fixes existing SAST backlog with deterministic rules plus GenAI validation. Mobb offers Community free for public repos and paid from $20 per developer per month. LyraShield is live open beta with open registration at lyrashieldai.com, with some features on near-term roadmap.
- When should I choose Mobb over LyraShield?
- Choose Mobb when you have a large SAST backlog and want anti-hallucination fix methodology with real-time IDE protection via Mobb Vibe Shield across Copilot, Cursor, Claude, and JetBrains through MCP. Its ROI dashboard tracks fixes. Choose LyraShield when you need immutable assurance reports, coverage receipts, and approval-gated execution for AI-built app releases.
