Hey, I'm Simon.

I've been fascinated by security for as long as I can remember. There's something about finding the one weak spot in a system that everyone else missed — it's like solving a puzzle where the stakes are real.

Over the years, I've spent countless hours breaking into applications (legally), finding vulnerabilities in web apps, APIs, and cloud setups. I've seen how small mistakes — a missing check here, a leaked secret there — can turn into serious breaches.

But here's what's been bothering me lately: AI is changing everything.

Tools like Copilot and ChatGPT are amazing. They help developers ship faster than ever. But they also generate vulnerabilities with complete confidence. SQL injections, hardcoded API keys, broken auth flows — I see the same patterns over and over in AI-assisted codebases.

The thing is, most developers aren't security experts. They shouldn't have to be. But when you're using AI to write code, you need someone who can catch what both you and the AI might miss.

That's why I started ShipSecure.

I looked at the security industry and saw a gap. Enterprise companies have huge budgets for security vendors. But what about the indie hacker launching their first SaaS? The small startup that's bootstrapped? The solo founder wearing all the hats?

These are the people building the future, and they deserve access to real security expertise — not watered-down automated scans, but actual human review from someone who knows what attackers look for.

I want to make that accessible. Affordable. No enterprise BS, no lengthy sales cycles. Just honest security work for people who ship.
