    "what_it_does": "Heeler is an agentic development security platform that provides machine-speed security for AI-written code. It autonomously operates AppSec across every layer of the AI SDLC, preventing risk, deterministically fixing vulnerabilities, and orchestrating response without human bottlenecks. The platform connects, unifies, and acts automatically by building a shared model across code, cloud, business, ownership, threat, and agent context to prevent, fix, and operate security continuously.",
    "primary_audience": "AI-forward teams",
    "core_product": "Heeler's core product is an agentic development security platform that offers continuous security through three main layers: Prevent (security during code generation by embedding into coding agents to enforce policies and steer secure code generation), Fix (deterministic agentic remediation for SCA and SAST findings, delivering validated, merge-ready PRs), and Operate (covering open source security, code security, infrastructure as code, container security, secrets detection, agent skills security, CI/CD security, and standards & compliance across the AI SDLC).",
