Building autonomous AI agents for vulnerability discovery

About

I'm the Founder BountyKai, an AI-native cybersecurity company building autonomous security agents for web application penetration testing. At BountyKai, we're reimagining how offensive security is performed. Our platform combines autonomous AI agents, browser traffic analysis, and penetration testing techniques to discover real vulnerabilities—including business logic flaws, API security issues, authentication weaknesses, and access control vulnerabilities—without requiring source code or manual scripting. My mission is simple: build autonomous AI systems that think and operate like professional security researchers. I specialize in: • AI Agents & Agentic Systems • Cybersecurity & Offensive Security • Web Application Penetration Testing • Bug Bounty Automation • Application Security (AppSec) • API Security Testing • Business Logic Vulnerability Discovery • Large Language Models (LLMs) • Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) • Full-Stack AI Engineering • Security Automation Before BountyKai, I founded TrendsToTravel, an AI-powered travel platform, and have spent years building AI products, SaaS applications, and automation systems across multiple industries. Today, my entire focus is building BountyKai into the future of autonomous application security. I believe the next generation of cybersecurity won't rely on static scanners or template-based testing—it will be powered by intelligent AI agents capable of understanding applications, reasoning about attack paths, and continuously discovering real vulnerabilities at scale. If you're interested in AI, cybersecurity, application security, bug bounty, penetration testing, autonomous agents, or building the future of offensive security, I'd love to connect.
