#1
Analysis Accuracy
DeepSource
Uses Abstract Syntax Tree (AST) based analysis for precise understanding of code structure and context, leading to significantly fewer false positives.
Semgrep
Relies on pattern matching and regular expressions, which can miss context and lead to more false positives and false negatives.
#2
Analysis Depth
DeepSource
Deep semantic analysis that understands code relationships, data flow, and control flow across files and functions.
Semgrep
Limited to syntactic pattern matching within single files, making it harder to detect complex issues and vulnerabilities.
#3
Custom Rules
DeepSource
Powerful custom analyzer SDK that allows writing rules with full access to AST and semantic information.
Semgrep
Pattern-based custom rules that are limited by the capabilities of regex matching and simple AST patterns.
#4
Developer Experience
DeepSource
Modern, intuitive interface with clear issue explanations and automated fixes for common problems.
Semgrep
Basic interface with less context for issues and limited automated fixing capabilities.
#5
Enterprise Readiness
DeepSource
Built for enterprise scale with strong access controls, SSO, and audit logging. Includes dedicated support and deployment options.
Semgrep
Limited enterprise features and support options, primarily focused on open-source and smaller teams.
