Jit vs. SonarQube
Jit and SonarQube are both application security solutions, with significant differences around developer UX, breadth of security tool support, and ability to determine exploitable vulnerabilities.
Compare Jit and SonarQube

AI Agents to automate time consuming AppSec tasks
AI Agents automatically perform application risk assessments, manage and follow up with tickets, run threat models, and much more.

Developer UX and adoption
Jit unifies all security scanning and remediation into a single UX within the PR, so developers never need to leave GitHub.
SonarQube scans code as a PR is created and then sends vulnerabilities to a separate UI, which forces developers out of their native environment to view the vulnerability info.
Breadth of Security Tools
Jit supports SAST, SCA, IaC, Secrets detection, CI/CD security, CSPM, and Web App and API Security. All delivered within the same UX.
SonarQube features SAST and IaC scanning.
Remediation code suggestions
Includes IaC security, SCA, SAST, and Cloud Scanner
SAST
Ability to determine vulnerabilitiy exploitability
Jit’s Context Engine can determine whether a vulnerability is exploitable in production and poses a threat, so developers can prioritize the most important findings.
SonarQube cannot determine whether a vulnerability is exploitable in production, making it difficult for developers to understand which findings are most important.
Fast implementation across repos
Simply choose one of Jit’s out-of-the-box security toolchains that aligns with your use case, and implement it across your repos in minutes.
