# Hadrian pricing: Nova tests from EUR 1,250 and what is not published Source: https://pentestcompare.com/pricing/hadrian/ Publisher: Excession Labs (pentestcompare.com) Last updated: 2026-11-09 Hadrian pricing as of 9 November 2026: Nova agentic pentests from EUR 1,250 per test excluding VAT, bundles and Atlas unpublished, plus questions to ask before you buy. > **Short answer:** Hadrian (hadrian.io) lists Nova agentic pentests from EUR 1,250 per test, excluding VAT, with full reporting. Bundles exist but their sizes and prices are not published. The Atlas attack surface product is priced by asset count with no figures. What one test covers is not defined, and retest terms and a sample report are not published. Checked 9 November 2026. Hadrian pricing has one published figure: Nova tests from EUR 1,250 per test, excluding VAT. This page covers Hadrian at hadrian.io. A different company at hadrian.build also ranks for the name, and its prices are not on this page. Facts come from the [provider dataset](/providers/hadrian/), checked on 9 November 2026 against [Hadrian pricing](https://hadrian.io/pricing) and [Hadrian Nova](https://hadrian.io/products/nova). ## What does Hadrian publish about price? Hadrian publishes one price, in euros: Nova tests from EUR 1,250 per test, excluding VAT. Everything else is unpublished or priced by a quote. | Item | What the page says | Checked | |---|---|---| | Nova test | From EUR 1,250 per test, excluding VAT; one agentic pentest with full reporting | 9 Nov 2026 | | Nova bundles | Available; sizes and prices Not published | 9 Nov 2026 | | Atlas (attack surface) | Priced by asset count; no figures shown | 9 Nov 2026 | | Currency | Euro (EUR) | 9 Nov 2026 | | Pricing model in our dataset | Mixed | 9 Nov 2026 | "From" marks a starting price. The page does not say what moves a test above EUR 1,250. Add VAT to the figure when you budget, and convert from euros at your own rate, because the page quotes no dollar price. ## What does the price buy? The unit is a test, and the page does not define a test. The dataset describes Nova as a fleet of AI agents that run the test, with findings described as human-reviewed. Who reviews them is not stated. Scope on the Nova page covers web applications. APIs, cloud, network, mobile and AI apps are not named, so we record them as unknown. If your target is an API or a mobile backend, ask whether one test includes it. The speed claim is a duration. Most tests finish within 24 to 48 hours, and the page says a start on the first day is possible. Hadrian's pages also use hours and days elsewhere, so confirm the unit that applies to your test. Ask for the date you receive the report. ## How does Nova differ from Atlas on price? Nova is priced per test and Atlas is priced by asset count. They answer different questions. Nova tests one application on demand. Atlas covers the attack surface, so the cost grows with the number of assets you add. Atlas shows no figures, so you cannot budget it from public pages. Treat any Atlas number as quote-only until Hadrian publishes a rate per asset. ## What drives the final cost? The page lists no cost drivers. These are the variables a quote usually has to settle: 1. How many tests you buy, and whether a bundle applies. Bundle prices are not published. 2. What one test covers: applications, APIs and user roles. 3. Whether retesting after a fix is included. Hadrian does not publish retest terms. 4. VAT, which the listed price excludes. 5. Currency and invoicing in euros. For the cost of other models, see the [penetration testing cost guide](/guides/penetration-testing-cost/). An AI-agent test at a per-test price, such as [Intruder](/pricing/intruder/), uses a similar unit, but scope and retest terms differ. ## What does Hadrian not publish? Our check on 9 November 2026 found these gaps: - The scope of one Nova test. - Bundle sizes and bundle prices. - Atlas prices. - Retest terms. - A sample report. - Who reviews findings. The dataset summarizes the fit as teams that want a published starting price per test and a quick agentic test of an application before launch or after a major change. The tradeoffs follow from the gaps above: the unit is not defined, retest terms are not stated and no sample report is offered. [Judge a sample report](/guides/judge-a-pentest-provider-by-its-sample-report/) before you buy from any provider that has one. ## What should you ask before you buy? Send Hadrian, and every provider on your shortlist, the same items in writing: 1. What does one Nova test cover, in apps, APIs, roles and environments? 2. What do bundles cost, and do unused tests expire? 3. Are retests after a fix included, and for how long? 4. Who reviews each finding, and can I see a redacted report? 5. Is the EUR 1,250 price valid for my scope, and does it exclude VAT? 6. What does Atlas cost per asset for my asset count? 7. When will I receive the final report? Compare the answers with the [pricing hub](/pricing/) and the provider list in [comparisons](/compare/). Send a [correction](/methodology/#corrections) if Hadrian's pages now differ from this page. ## Questions ### How much does a Hadrian pentest cost? Hadrian lists Nova tests from EUR 1,250 per test, excluding VAT, on hadrian.io/pricing as of 9 November 2026. The figure is a starting price in euros. Bundles are available, but their sizes and prices are not published, so the final cost needs a quote. ### Is hadrian.build the same company? No. This page covers Hadrian at hadrian.io, which sells the Nova agentic pentest and the Atlas attack surface product. A different company at hadrian.build also appears in search results for the same name. Check the domain before you compare prices. ### Does Hadrian publish what one test covers? No. The pricing page says one Nova test includes full reporting but does not define the scope of a test, such as the number of apps, endpoints or user roles. Ask for the scope unit in writing and compare it with per-asset or per-test prices from other providers. ## Sources - [Hadrian pricing](https://hadrian.io/pricing) - [Hadrian Nova](https://hadrian.io/products/nova)
