Equixly . A virtual hacker to secure your API

Mattia and Alessio Dalla Piazza have created Equixly, a SaaS platform based on artificial intelligence that automates security tests on API (Application Programming Interface) endpoints, i.e. those interfaces that allow communication and integration between software components. Their startup quickly attracted experienced investors in the industry, such as 360 Capital and Nana Bianca.

We had already worked with Mattia and Alessio on other projects, including CYS4 and Cybermentis. When they unveiled the vision behind their new cybersecurity initiative, we were thrilled.

Equixly allows developers to run continuous tests on their APIs, detect defects early and take prompt action. In this way, time losses are limited, risks are reduced, safer code is released, and data is kept safe.

For Equixly, we designed an original visual identity and developed a website based on Jekyll, the static web page generator that is all about performance and – of course! – security.

«We needed excellent design and maniacally written code. We chose Moze once again and we didn’t regret it: they did a really great job!»

«Software developers often have to enlist a hacker to test the security of the code they have written, and in particular the APIs. We thought about using the potential of artificial intelligence to do this job, but automatically.»

After the work done with Moze in 2023 on brand, UX/UI design, and website, Equixly grew: it raised a new round of investment and strengthened its positioning in the application security market.
