Automation should improve signal, not spam platforms
Good bug bounty automation is not mass scanning and weak submissions. It is a research loop: identify promising targets, test concrete hypotheses, reject low-signal leads, and only package reports with proof, impact, and scope alignment.
- Scout active bounty programs and match them to known vulnerability patterns.
- Convert one-off findings into reusable audit checklists and agent work orders.
- Require runnable PoCs, concrete impact, and duplicate/known-issue checks before submission.
