What is Elara?
Elara offers comprehensive security scanning for software development projects, integrating multiple industry-standard tools into a single platform. The service performs real-time static analysis to detect vulnerabilities, scans for exposed API keys and credentials, identifies CVEs in dependencies, and provides security-focused linting to maintain code quality. All scanning occurs in isolated environments with complete privacy—source code is never stored, only scan results are retained.
The platform includes AI-powered fix suggestions that analyze scan results and recommend prioritized solutions across files. Developers can visualize their security posture through a health score system and access detailed reports. Elara integrates directly with GitHub repositories using read-only access, requiring minimal setup to start securing code within minutes.

FAQs
-
What types of security issues does Elara scan for?
Elara scans for code vulnerabilities and security flaws, leaked secrets and credentials, dependency vulnerabilities, security anti-patterns, and outdated packages with known CVEs. -
How is my code protected during scanning?
Your code is only temporarily cloned into isolated AWS containers that are destroyed immediately after analysis. The service never stores source code—only scan results are retained, and the GitHub app requires only read-access to approved repositories. -
What is the refund policy?
Elara does not offer refunds but provides a free plan so users can fully try and evaluate the service before making a purchase. -
How often should I scan my code?
Recommended scanning times include after major feature additions, before major releases, when adding new dependencies, and at regular intervals (weekly/monthly) as part of security practice.
