Claude AI in VitalSite
How VitalSite uses Anthropic’s Claude to turn raw findings into prioritized, stack-specific fix guides and a client-ready executive summary.
What separates VitalSite from a plain checklist is the explanation. After the engine runs all 17 checks, VitalSite sends the structured findings to Anthropic’s Claude to produce a clear, prioritized, human-readable report — the difference between "X missing CSP" and an exact, copy-paste fix tailored to your stack.
What it provides
Claude is a state-of-the-art large language model that’s strong at technical reasoning and clear writing. For each scan it generates:
- A fix guide per finding — a plain-English explanation, a realistic attack scenario, the exact fix (code or steps), and how to verify it worked.
- Stack-aware instructions — WordPress sites get wp-config snippets, Nginx servers get nginx.conf blocks, Cloudflare users get dashboard steps.
- A domain-wide summary — an executive paragraph you can share with a client, a prioritized top-3 action list, and a realistic risk narrative.
Why we use it
Most scanners stop at "here’s a red X." That leaves the hard part — understanding and fixing the issue — to you. Claude closes that gap by translating raw security data into actions a busy developer or business owner can actually take, prioritized by impact.
How VitalSite uses it
All Claude calls happen server-side — your scan data is sent securely from our backend and the API key is never exposed to the browser. Claude receives the scan metadata, detected tech stack, and every finding as structured data, and returns a structured report that powers the threat cards, the executive summary, and the PDF export. It’s also what makes the fixes stack-aware.
The free tier includes an AI summary; Pro and Agency unlock the full per-finding fix guides and downloadable reports.
