Meet Lory: Your AI-Powered Cybersecurity Assistant

AI Security Assistant

Instant Answers About Pentesting, Compliance, Pricing, and Security

Figuring out what your company actually needs from a security perspective can feel overwhelming. Penetration testing, vulnerability scanning, compliance frameworks, code reviews the options pile up fast, the jargon gets thick, and half the vendors you talk to want a 30-minute call before they will tell you what anything costs.

That is exactly why we built Lory.

Lory is Lorikeet Security's AI assistant available right on our website, no account required, no forms to fill out. She knows everything about our services, pricing, timelines, and methodology, and she can explain security concepts in plain language without making you feel like you need a certification to follow along.

Why We Built an AI Assistant

We noticed a pattern with visitors coming to our site. They had straightforward questions how much does a web app pentest cost?, do you help with SOC 2?, what is the difference between a vulnerability scan and a penetration test? but the only way to get answers was to schedule a call or send an email and wait.

That friction does not make sense when the answers are not complicated. If someone wants to know that a web app penetration test starts at $7,500 and takes one to two weeks, they should be able to get that answer in seconds rather than days. Same for compliance questions, timeline estimates, or just understanding what a pentest actually involves.

So we trained Lory on everything we know: our full service catalog and pricing, our testing methodology, every compliance framework we support, and the security concepts that come up most in client conversations. The result is an assistant that gives you the same quality answers you would get from our sales team, just faster.

What You Can Ask Lory

Lory is not a generic chatbot that gives vague answers. She is purpose-built for cybersecurity and specifically trained on what Lorikeet Security does. Here are the kinds of things she handles well:

Lory also links you to relevant resources when they exist. If you ask about the OWASP Top 10, she will not only explain it but point you to our in-depth blog post that covers what we actually find in real pentests. Ask about SOC 2 pentest requirements and she will walk you through what auditors expect while linking to the full guide.

How Lory Works

Under the hood, Lory is powered by Claude, Anthropic's AI model the same technology behind some of the most capable AI systems available today. But what makes Lory different from a generic AI chatbot is her knowledge base.

We loaded Lory with:

• Our complete service catalog every service, starting price, timeline, and what is included
• Nearly 2,000 vulnerability entries from OWASP, MITRE CWE, and MITRE CAPEC so she can explain specific vulnerability types accurately
• The OWASP Top 10 (both web and API versions), the Application Security Verification Standard (ASVS), and the Web Security Testing Guide (WSTG)
• Compliance framework details for SOC 2, ISO 27001, PCI DSS, HIPAA, CMMC, HITRUST, NIST CSF, FedRAMP, GDPR, and more
• Our testing methodology the six phases of a pentest, what gets tested, and how findings are reported
• 130+ blog posts covering everything from AI-generated code security to Active Directory penetration testing

This means when you ask Lory a question, she is not guessing or generating a generic response. She is pulling from the same knowledge base our security researchers use, translated into language anyone can follow.

Built for People, Not Security Experts

The biggest design decision we made with Lory was the tone. Cybersecurity is full of acronyms, technical jargon, and concepts that assume you already know what everything means. That is great if you are a security engineer, but not helpful if you are a startup founder trying to figure out whether you need a pentest before your Series A.

Lory explains things the way you would want a knowledgeable friend to explain them. If she mentions a technical term, she defines it right away. If you ask about something like SSRF, she will not just say "server-side request forgery" and leave it at that she will explain that it is a trick where an attacker makes your server fetch internal files it should not have access to, and then tell you how we test for it.

This matters because the people making security purchasing decisions are not always technical. CTOs, founders, compliance managers, and operations leads all need to understand what they are buying and why. Lory bridges that gap.

What Lory Does Not Do

Lory is great for getting started, but she is not a replacement for human expertise. Here is where she draws the line:

• Custom proposals Lory can give you starting prices and general scoping guidance, but for a detailed proposal tailored to your infrastructure, you will want to book a consultation with our team
• Active security testing Lory answers questions and provides guidance. She does not scan your systems, run tests, or assess your infrastructure
• Customer-specific data (public version) The public website version of Lory does not have access to client project data. Existing clients can log into the client portal where Lory has live access to your projects, findings, and assets for personalized security guidance
• Legal or audit advice Lory knows what compliance frameworks require from a testing perspective, but she is not a lawyer or auditor. For compliance strategy, talk to our team

When Lory reaches the edge of what she can help with, she will always point you to the right next step whether that is emailing [email protected], booking a free consultation, or logging into the client portal.

Try It Right Now

Lory is live on our website at lorikeetsecurity.com/lory. No sign-up. No email required. Just type your question or use the microphone to speak it. Lory can also read her responses aloud with natural-sounding ElevenLabs speech synthesis.

Here are a few questions to get you started:

• "How much does a web app pentest cost?"
• "What is the difference between a pentest and a vulnerability scan?"
• "Do you help with SOC 2 compliance?"
• "What is the OWASP Top 10?"
• "I built my app with Cursor should I get a security review?"
• "How fast can you start a pentest?"

If you have been putting off that security conversation because you were not sure where to start, Lory is the lowest-friction way to get answers. And when you are ready to talk to a human, our team is a click away.

Security should not be gatekept behind sales calls and confusing terminology. Lory is our way of making cybersecurity knowledge accessible to everyone whether you are a solo founder shipping your first product or an enterprise security team evaluating vendors. Ask her anything. She is happy to help.
