Who Uses DataNexus

Security engineers auditing SBOMs against CISA KEV, triaging CVEs with instant CRITICAL/HIGH/MODERATE/LOW verdicts, scanning CI pipelines for exposed secrets, and checking licence compatibility across their entire dependency list — without leaving their AI client.

Frontend developers catching typosquats against the top-500 frontend corpus, auditing package.json for supply-chain risk before shipping, and getting one-verdict package risk briefs scoped to npm.

Compliance analysts running background checks across IRS, SAM.gov, and NPPES — manually 45 minutes, with DataNexus 4 minutes.

Nonprofit researchers and grant-makers discovering organizations by category, tracking 5-year revenue trends, and running full 990-based due diligence — in one conversation.

M&A and legal teams doing due diligence on organizations — SAM exclusion checks, contract history, NPI verification, and patent portfolio in a single Claude conversation.


5-Minute Quickstart

Copy any of these into Claude after connecting DataNexus:

Register a free API key:

"Generate a DataNexus API key for me using my email address."

Licence compliance audit:

"Check the licences of requests, flask, and numpy. Are they compatible for use in a commercial SaaS product?"

CVE risk triage:

"Get the full risk summary for CVE-2021-44228 — CVSS, CISA KEV status, EPSS probability, and patch availability in one call."

Audit a package.json:

"Audit my package.json for supply-chain risk — check for critical CVEs, licence issues, and abandoned packages."

Scan a GitHub Actions workflow:

"Scan this GitHub Actions workflow for exposed secrets, unpinned actions, and missing lockfile enforcement."

Nonprofit due diligence:

"Find education nonprofits in California, pick one, and show me their 5-year revenue trend."

CVE watch inbox:

"Check all my active CVE watches for new events since my last poll."
