CleanSlop vs Elva: Features, Pricing & Which Is Better (2026)

A side-by-side comparison of CleanSlop and Elva — features, pricing, and ideal use cases — to help you decide which AI tool fits your workflow.

CleanSlop

Freemium

Scans vibe-coded apps for launch-blocking issues like leaked keys and data exposure, and reports what to fix first, right from your coding agent.

Agent-Native Scanning: Tell Claude Code, Codex, Cursor or other agents to scan with CleanSlop and fix findings where you build.
System-Level Code Mapping: Maps routes, background jobs, data and external services so each finding follows a real call path.
Prioritized Reports: Findings grouped as needs attention, worth a look and minor, worst first.
Evidence for Every Finding: Shows where each issue lives in your code and why it was flagged.
Plain-English Fixes: Explains what is wrong, why it matters and what to do about it.
Copy for LLM: Hands any report to your AI tool so it can apply the fixes.
GitHub App Integration: Scan only the repositories you select, read-only access.
Expert Triage Calls: Book a 15-minute call with a CleanSlop engineer to walk through findings.

A solo founder checks a Next.js and Supabase app built with an AI coding assistant before launching.
A developer discovers an exposed AI API key bundled into browser code and moves it to a server route.
A side-project builder verifies that one user's data cannot be read by another through database policies.
A Claude Code user runs a scan from the terminal and has the agent fix the top findings.
A team lead gets a short prioritized list instead of hundreds of linter warnings.
An indie hacker books an expert triage call to confirm an ambiguous finding.

Theneo

Freemium

Reads your repositories to discover every API, scores and governs them, then exposes them to developers and AI agents via hosted MCP servers.

Spec-Free API Discovery: Elva scans repository code directly to find endpoints and generates OpenAPI 3.1 as output, so no existing spec is needed to start.
Endpoint Scoring: Every collection is graded on design, developer experience, AI readiness, security and performance, with the weakest collection surfaced first.
AI Fix Pass: A one-click agent writes missing descriptions from code, types response schemas and documents auth, then rescores the collection.
API Contracts: Per-audience contracts pin the exact endpoints and fields a partner, internal team, public developer or MCP client receives, excluding PII and internal fields.
Breaking Change Enforcement: Each commit is diffed against published contracts, showing the schema diff, affected consumers and tools, and blocking publish by policy.
Hosted MCP Servers: Contracts generate MCP servers hosted behind Elva's gateway with OAuth2, scoped keys, per-tool authorization and exportable call logs.
MCP Playground and Agent Feedback: Test the server with a live model, then read the complaints agents file about confusing or failing tools, scored back into the catalog.
Multi-Target Publishing: One approved contract ships as OpenAPI spec, Theneo docs, MCP server, Postman collection and a typed TypeScript SDK in sync.

API Inventory Audit: Discover undocumented or forgotten endpoints across a large codebase and get a ranked list of what to fix first.
Agent Enablement: Expose an internal service to Claude, Cursor or ChatGPT as a governed MCP server instead of hand-writing tool wrappers.
Partner Integration Safety: Publish a restricted contract to an external partner and have Elva block commits that would break their integration.
PII Scoping: Keep customer emails and internal ops annotations out of a public or agent-facing surface while the same endpoints serve them internally.
Zombie Endpoint Retirement: Prove no active consumer references an endpoint before deleting it, using contract and call-log evidence.
Enterprise Security Review: Satisfy SOC 2, ISO 27001 and GDPR questions and wire agent access into an existing SSO and SCIM identity provider.
Documentation Drift Control: Keep docs, SDKs and Postman collections regenerated from code on every merge instead of maintained by hand.
