Why Growth Stalls
Why strong scanning engines still run out of pipeline.
Shipping accurate detection doesn't sign customers. Here are the four leaks that stall application security growth — and how we plug them.
-
Traffic comes, but nobody starts a scan
Clicks land on a site full of feature claims with no proof of accuracy or false-positive rate.
-
Your CAC keeps climbing on a two-sided deal
Ad costs rise every quarter, and this deal needs both a developer champion and a security buyer sold before it closes.
-
A clean PoC still never rolls out org-wide
A security engineer runs the scan on a handful of repos and likes what they see.
-
Buyers build their shortlist without you on it
Security and platform buyers research SAST, DAST, SCA, and comparison queries.

Follow-up -
Your renewal is coming up
A quick look at what you've secured this year, and what's next.
Renewal
Proof, not promises
Track every trial, PoC, and dollar.
One dashboard shows how every channel turns into trials, PoCs, and closed revenue — so you always know your CAC and what to scale next.
Pipeline & PoCs Turn signups into qualified pipeline
Every trial and PoC request is captured, tagged with its source, and routed to your CRM the moment it lands.
Every signup traced to its source
See which campaign, keyword, or page produced each trial and PoC request — so budget moves to what actually fills the pipeline.
Synced to your CRM
Trials, PoCs, and qualified leads land in HubSpot or Salesforce automatically, so sales and marketing share one clean pipeline.
CAC & LTV See your real CAC and payback
Every closed customer is connected back to the campaign that produced it, even across a multi-month cycle.
True cost per customer
Ad spend, trials, and closed deals tied together — so you always know what a customer costs, and which way that number is moving.
Channel-level LTV
Google, LinkedIn, and organic tracked separately, so you can see which channel brings the customers who renew and expand.
Enforcement Velocity See where rollouts stall before enforcement
Most AppSec revenue is won or lost between the PoC and org-wide enforcement.
Stage-by-stage tracking
See how many trials reach a PoC, where rollouts stall, and which follow-up touches keep enforcement moving across the org.
PoC-to-close conversion
Every PoC is followed to its outcome, so you know which campaigns and content produce revenue that closes — not just meetings.

Marketing for appsec software, without the mystery
Our pricing is public and simple. Google Ads management is 10% of your ad budget with a $600-a-month minimum, and none of it is marked up — your full ad budget goes to Google. SEO is $50 per page, starting at 10 pages a month. Custom websites are eight one-time packages from $1,500 to $20,000+ (see /websites for details). Setup is $0, everything is month-to-month with no contract, and a 30-day guarantee means if you're not happy, you don't pay. Tell us about your platform and we'll send exact pricing in a free proposal within one business day.
If trial signups aren't turning into PoCs, a proof-of-concept never rolls out past the first few repos, or growth still depends on conference talks and founder network, yes — closing one of those leaks usually covers the fee. We handle the site, paid and organic acquisition, and trial-to-PoC tracking so your team can stay on the product. If demand is already growing and converting on its own, keep that engine running.
It owns every channel that produces trials, PoCs, and closed pipeline. SearchPod builds your site and landing pages, runs high-intent Google plus LinkedIn ads aimed at security and platform-engineering titles, wins the SAST, DAST, SCA, and comparison queries buyers use to shortlist vendors, and traces every trial and PoC back to its source — one team, one pipeline.
Look for proof they understand this buyer: do they optimize for qualified trials and PoCs or just clicks, can they trace a proof-of-concept through org-wide enforcement to closed revenue, and do they know the difference between the developer running the scan and the security lead who signs the contract? Then check ownership — your site, ad accounts, and data should stay in your name.
Paid campaigns usually produce the first trial signups within a few weeks. Rankings for SAST, DAST, SCA, and “alternatives to” queries take 3–6 months to build, then keep compounding. Because org-wide enforcement can take months after a PoC starts, expect pipeline to build in stages — we track it from first click to closed deal so you can see it happening.
We run the whole funnel — site, paid acquisition, SEO, and AI search — so nothing falls between vendors, and we're judged on qualified trials, PoCs, and pipeline, not traffic. Pricing is public, contracts are month-to-month, and your site, ad accounts, analytics, and customer data stay yours from day one.
Our pricing is public — the pricing page shows the real starting price for every service — and your plan is scoped to your platform, deal size, and sales motion. Tell us about your company and we'll send exact pricing in a free proposal within one business day, no obligation.
On qualified trials, PoCs, and closed pipeline, never vanity traffic. We optimize landing pages and CTAs for trial signups, then connect every trial and PoC back to the campaign or page that produced it, so you can see your true CAC and which channel actually funds itself over a long sales cycle.
Yes. Plenty of AppSec tools — lightweight scanners, freemium dependency checkers, single-repo secrets scanning — sell through a free trial with little or no sales call. Others, like enterprise SAST/DAST/SCA suites, need a technical proof-of-concept, a security-engineering buying committee, and CISO sign-off before a deal closes and enforcement rolls out org-wide. We build the funnel to match how your product actually gets bought.
Yes. Everything lives in accounts your company owns — site, brand assets, ad accounts, analytics, and customer data. We're month-to-month, and if you ever leave, it all simply stays where it is.
Yes. We work inside the stack you already use — HubSpot, Salesforce, and your product analytics — so trials, PoCs, and pipeline flow into your CRM and attribution stays clean from first click to closed-won.
Most AppSec software sites and landing pages go live in about 2–4 weeks. The pace mostly depends on how fast we get your product story, technical proof points, and feedback — you'll have a clear timeline before we start.
