Why I Built This

Rod Alexanderson

Founder

I spent two years studying cybersecurity — YouTube, courses, documentation, everything I could get my hands on. But security is massive, and no single person can cover it all. Hiring an expert or buying an enterprise tool? Out of the question for a solopreneur.

And with this AI boom, the gap became obvious: every security tool out there was either enterprise-grade (hundreds of dollars, designed for teams of 50) or a terminal tool that spat out cryptic codes with zero explanation. I wanted something anyone could read, easy to use, no complications. That's how it should be. I almost gave up and moved on.

So I built the thing I wished existed. A scanner that tells you what's wrong, explains why it matters in plain language (or as non-technical as it can be), and shows you how to fix it. Starting at $0. No credit card required. No sales calls, no enterprise tiers, no 47-page PDFs. Just connect your repo, hit scan, see results. If something's wrong, click Generate Fix, then Create PR. Done.

Data Hogo is for the solopreneur shipping their SaaS at midnight. The vibecoder whose first app just got its first user. The small startup that can't afford Snyk but can't afford to get breached either. If that's you, this is for you.

I'm building this in public, one vulnerability at a time. The encyclopedia, the blog, the free tools — it's all part of the same mission: make security accessible for everyone building with AI. Not just the companies with a security budget.
