Turn quality into a strategic advantage—accelerate outcomes with Sauce intelligence.

In 2025, AI-powered coding platforms have rapidly moved from "nice to have " to an important part of modern developers. The tools that caught everyone’s attention in these are Windsurf and Cursor.

In doing so, they also introduce a more open, fluid, and automation-driven attack surface. However, traditional API security models weren’t built for this.
