AI pentest FAQ
Simple answers about Nebula, plans and getting started. 30 questions.
What can Nebula test?
Yes. Test API access and data handling, or review exposed cloud services and configuration. Coverage depends on your approved scope and connected accounts.
Nebula investigates weaknesses in sign-in, permissions, data handling, APIs and application logic. Findings include evidence so you can review what happened and what to fix.
How do I set scope and access?
Choose the systems to test, confirm your written permission and provide any required test accounts. Share the task in your workspace.
Yes, always, and we cannot waive it. Testing a system without written authorisation is a criminal offence under the Computer Misuse Act 1990 in the UK, the CFAA in the US and equivalents elsewhere. Our Terms of Service require you to hold that authorisation before a scan starts.
How do credits work?
Individual includes 400 monthly credits, 1 AI staff member and 1 named seat. Team includes 1,000 monthly credits, 1 AI staff member and 3 named seats. Both provide web, API, network and cloud testing, plus mobile testing on supported connected devices, using your credits. Unused monthly credits roll over for one month, capped at one month of the plan allowance. Additional work uses prepaid credits. Both plans include email support.
Do retests use credits?
Retests, AI-written reports and questionnaire answers use your monthly allowance, then prepaid credits. On Enterprise, they use credits billed separately. A credit represents £1 of metered usage; the number of tokens varies with input, output and cached input. Your workspace usage page shows recorded tokens and credit charges.
How does billing work?
Individual is £399 per month, Team is £899 per month and Business is £2,299 per month. Enterprise is £199 per seat per month (minimum five seats), and its credits are billed separately. Every plan includes one AI staff member and the Nebula engine. Individual, Team and Business also include a monthly credit allowance shared by the organisation; testing, investigations and retests use those credits, then prepaid top-ups. The full feature and allowance comparison is on /pricing.
How do I get started?
Create an account at auth.breachline.io/register using your company email. Verify your email, set up two-factor authentication and review your company details. Sign the platform-use agreement, then select and pay for your plan. Before testing, define your targets and provide written authorisation for the scope. Personal and disposable email addresses are not supported.

How Nebula Works
06 questions
Nebula can plan and carry out several steps from one task. You set the scope and permissions, follow its work and review the results.
Nebula plans the next step, uses a tool, checks the result and adjusts its plan. You can follow its progress and give new instructions as it works.
Nebula uses browser, terminal and security tools in a sandbox. The task, approved scope and available connections determine which tools it can use.
Nebula can split a larger task into smaller jobs, run suitable work in parallel and bring the results together.
Project memory helps related conversations keep useful context. Nebula can refer to earlier findings and notes when continuing the work.
Yes. Send instructions in the conversation while Nebula works. You can ask for progress, add context or redirect the task within your approved scope.
Security & Compliance
05 questions

Yes, always, and we cannot waive it. Testing a system without written authorisation is a criminal offence under the Computer Misuse Act 1990 in the UK, the CFAA in the US and equivalents elsewhere. Our Terms of Service require you to hold that authorisation before a scan starts.
