February 2026: The First Month After the Neuron Launch
An announcement takes a day. Everything after it takes much longer. February was our first full month with Neuron available, and it looked very different from January: less writing about the platform, more engineering on the two places an engagement most often slows down. The first is the gap between the tester’s tools and the finding. The second is the gap between the finished finding and the client.
Bringing web testers into Neuron
Web application testers spend their day inside an intercepting proxy, and until now the path from a confirmed issue to a written finding ran through screenshots, copied requests and a separate document. We spent a large part of February closing that gap.
The new Neuron Burp Suite extension adds a Send to Neuron option inside Burp. An issue becomes a finding in the right engagement, with the request and response kept as evidence, instead of being rebuilt by hand later. To give those findings somewhere sensible to land, web applications became their own tracked asset in Neuron, with endpoints and parameters that findings attach to directly. That makes it possible to answer what was tested, and where each finding lives, without reconstructing it from memory.
On February 24 we published a short Burp Suite extension spotlight (opens in a new tab) with a clip of the workflow from right-click to finding.
A portal clients can actually use
The second area was the Delivery Portal, the read-only view where a customer’s clients follow their engagement. At launch it was a single page. In February we rebuilt it into a proper set of sections: an overview of the engagement, the findings released so far, the narrative briefs, the agreed scope and the people working on it. Share links, which give a client access without a full account, got the same structure.
The goal is simple. A client should be able to answer their own status questions without sending an email, and should only ever see findings that have passed review. The Delivery Portal spotlight (opens in a new tab) explains how that fits into the rest of an engagement.
What comes next
Most of what we learn in a month like this does not show up as a headline feature. It shows up as a smoother setup, a clearer screen or a step that no longer needs explaining. We will keep sharing the larger pieces here as they land, and the detailed write-ups on the product site as each one is ready.
There is no new product article for February. For everything published since launch, see neuron.ws/news (opens in a new tab), and to see Neuron for yourself, request a demo (opens in a new tab).
