The review happens right before launch
If anyone writes a threat model at all, it’s usually the week before release. By then the architecture is settled and the date is fixed, so most findings end up as backlog tickets or accepted risks.
Threat modeling for product teams
Connect the specs, design docs and tickets your team already writes. For each new one, Oko works out what’s changing, where the trust boundaries are and how someone could abuse it, then writes up what to fix. You find out while it’s still a draft and easy to change.

The problem
Someone decides the webhook doesn’t need auth, or that support should be able to change payout details, and nobody with a security background sees it until much later. Scanners can’t help, because there’s no code yet. Threat modeling can, but most teams can’t do it often enough.

2.
A proper threat model takes a few hours. Most security teams are a handful of people, and they can’t do one for every spec and ticket that touches auth, payments or customer data.
3.
Someone writes one, files it in the wiki, and then the design changes. Nobody updates it, and the findings rarely make it into the tickets engineers work from.
How it works
Give Oko read-only access to your docs, tickets and repos. It takes a few minutes.
Oko reads what’s already there and works out your services, where data flows, the trust boundaries and the controls you already have.
When someone writes a new spec, Oko works out what changed, which boundaries it crosses and which threats actually matter.
Short, testable security requirements go into the ticket, and your security team can see the full history.
What you get
Most of the time in a threat model goes into reading the doc, sketching the data flows and walking through the list of threats. Oko does that part, using your architecture and your own security standards, and leaves the judgment to your security team.
Data flows
Oko reads the design doc and works out the pieces: components, data stores and the trust boundaries between them.
Threats
Every piece is checked against STRIDE and your own security standards, so the usual suspects don’t get skipped because someone was in a hurry.
Risk
Threats are rated for likelihood and impact based on your architecture and the controls you already have. Something you’ve already handled won’t show up as critical.
Fixes
Each threat comes with a specific requirement an engineer can build and test, posted in the ticket where the work is planned.
Updates
When the spec changes, the threat model changes with it, and Oko shows you which threats are new.
Review
Your security team edits, approves or escalates. Every threat, decision and accepted risk is versioned, so you can always see who decided what.

A set of skills you can add to an AI coding agent like Claude Code, Codex, Cursor or Gemini CLI. Point your agent at a repo and it writes a threat model based on the code. They’re Apache-2.0 licensed and you don’t need an account.

Oko writes the first draft of every threat model. Your team spends its time on the ones that need a closer look.
