Vysiro vs. The Competition
How Vysiro's agentless domain trust platform compares to Red Sift, PowerDMARC, Valimail, dmarcian, EasyDMARC, Proofpoint, Agari, and other domain security tools - across 40+ features, verified pricing, and real differentiators.
Pricing data verified February 2026. Enterprise estimates marked where pricing is not publicly listed.
29 Security Categories
DNS, SSL, DMARC, SPF, DKIM, DNSSEC, MTA-STS, DANE, BIMI, headers, PQC, AI safety, and more - all in one 0-1000 TrustScore.
Formally Verified
Mathematical proof that your domain config is correct - not just a heuristic report. One of very few platforms using formal verification.
SMB Pricing, Enterprise Depth
Red Sift is $500+/mo. Valimail Enforce starts around $5K/yr and rises to enterprise minimums. Vysiro starts at $29/mo and covers more than both. No sales call required. (Competitor prices are public estimates.)
Market Context: The domain security market has bifurcated into two extremes. Legacy tools (PowerDMARC, EasyDMARC, dmarcian) cover email authentication only and require human action on every alert. Enterprise platforms (Red Sift at $500+/mo, Valimail from ~$5K/yr, Proofpoint at $100K+/yr, all estimates) are priced out of SMB reach and still don't offer PQC readiness, formal verification, or AI agent safety. Vysiro occupies the only open position: multi-protocol domain trust at SMB-accessible pricing.

| Platform | Free Tier | Starting At | Pro / Mid Tier | Enterprise | Domains | Key Differentiator |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
VysiroBest Value | Yes - 1 domain, unlimited scans | $29/mo (Starter) | $99/mo (Growth) | Custom (MSP Partner / Enterprise) | 1 (Free) / 5 (Starter) / 25 (Growth) / 50+ (MSP Partner / Enterprise) | 0-1000 TrustScore across 29 categories + AI analysis pipeline + PQC readiness |
PowerDMARC | Yes - 1 domain, 10K emails | $8/mo | $100-400/mo | $800+/mo | 2 → unlimited (by plan) | DMARC-focused; MSP partner program; no SSL/headers/PQC |
dmarcian | Yes - 2 domains (personal plan) | $19.99/mo | $59.99/mo | Custom | 2 → 15 (by plan) | DMARC aggregate reports only; no AI, no PQC, no guided fixes |
EasyDMARC | Yes - 1 domain, 1K emails | $35.99/mo | $35.99-99/mo | $500+/mo | 1 → unlimited (by plan) | Email authentication only; best UX but no SSL/DNS depth/PQC |
Red Sift | No (14-day trial only) | Enterprise ($500+/mo est.) | Enterprise | Enterprise (negotiated) | Not published | G2 #1 Winter 2026; Cloudflare preferred partner; enterprise-only pricing |
Valimail | Monitor-only free tier | Est. $5K+/yr (enterprise tiers higher) | Enterprise | Enterprise (negotiated) | Not published | Acquired by DigiCert (Sep 2025); FedRAMP certified; abandoned SMB market |
Proofpoint EFD | No | Contact Sales | Contact Sales | $100K+/yr (est.) | Unlimited | Part of full email security suite; overkill and overpriced for domain-only needs |
Agari (Fortra) | No | Contact Sales | Contact Sales | $25K-100K+/yr (est.) | Not published | Enterprise brand protection; no SMB access; no PQC; no guided fixes |
Pricing verified February 2026 from public pricing pages. Red Sift and Valimail do not publish pricing publicly - estimates are based on analyst reports and enterprise sales conversations. Enterprise pricing (Proofpoint, Agari) based on publicly available analyst estimates. Vysiro pricing is exact.

Comparison FAQ
How is Vysiro different from DMARC-only tools?
Tools like PowerDMARC, dmarcian, and EasyDMARC focus exclusively on email security (DMARC, SPF, DKIM). Vysiro covers 29 security categories - including SSL/TLS, DNSSEC, MTA-STS, DANE, BIMI, security headers, PQC readiness, and AI agent safety - and gives you a single 0-1000 TrustScore. You get 162 security checks in one scan instead of running five separate tools.
What makes the 0-1000 TrustScore unique?
The TrustScore is a weighted metric across 29 security categories. Unlike a simple pass/fail check or a percentage score for one protocol, it captures the full security picture - email, DNS, SSL, PQC readiness, and AI agent safety - with AI-powered analysis layered on top. No competitor at any price point offers a comparable unified score.
Why is Red Sift listed at $500+/mo when other sites show lower prices?
Red Sift does not publish pricing publicly. The $500+/mo estimate comes from enterprise sales conversations and analyst reports as of February 2026. Red Sift is explicitly enterprise-focused - they have no public SMB-accessible tier. Vysiro's Starter plan at $29/mo provides comparable DMARC/SPF/DKIM coverage plus SSL, DNS depth, and PQC readiness.
How is Valimail priced?
All competitor pricing here is our best public estimate, not a quote. Valimail Enforce has historically started around $5K/year, and after the September 2025 DigiCert acquisition it moved onto DigiCert ONE enterprise pricing, where contract minimums run materially higher. Either way the entry point sits well above SMB budgets, and Valimail's fix mechanism delegates your DMARC record to their nameservers rather than writing into your own zone. Vysiro targets the SMB segment that pricing leaves behind.
What is Formal Verification and why does it matter?
Vysiro evaluates your protocol configuration against deterministic constraints derived from the governing RFCs - for example, that an SPF include chain is acyclic and stays within the RFC 7208 lookup limit. Every constraint is evaluated the same way every time, with no LLM involvement, so results are reproducible and auditable. This is constraint-based validation rather than an SMT solver proof, and it checks the properties we have encoded, not all possible inputs. Determinism is the point: the same configuration always yields the same verdict, with the reproduction steps attached, which is what auditors and incident reviewers actually accept.
What are Hash-Chained Proof Packs?
Proof Packs are tamper-evident audit bundles generated after each scan. Each pack is cryptographically chained to the previous one, so you can prove to auditors exactly what your domain configuration looked like at any point in time - and that the evidence has not been modified. We are not aware of another domain security platform shipping hash-chained, signed evidence packs (mid-2026). They directly support SOC 2, PCI DSS, and NIS2 audit requirements.
What is the AgentShield API?
AgentShield is a real-time domain trust check endpoint (sub-50ms response) built for AI agents and LLM pipelines. When an AI agent needs to send an email, make an outbound request, or interact with a domain, it can query AgentShield to verify the domain has a passing TrustScore before proceeding. We are not aware of another domain security vendor building specifically for non-human AI workloads (mid-2026).
Can Vysiro replace my existing DMARC tool?
Yes. Vysiro provides full DMARC monitoring, aggregate report parsing, SPF validation, and DKIM verification - everything your current DMARC-focused tool does - plus SSL monitoring, DNS health, PQC readiness, and guided fixes in a single platform. On published list prices, the point tools Vysiro consolidates (a DMARC monitor, an SSL/uptime monitor, a DNS health checker, and a compliance evidence tool) total roughly $1,200-4,800/year depending on which ones you pay for today. That is list-price arithmetic you can check against your own invoices, not an averaged customer outcome.
How does Vysiro pricing compare?
Vysiro starts free with no credit card required. Starter ($29/mo) covers 5 monitored domains with daily scans, Push Fix on Cloudflare, and CT-log change detection. Growth ($99/mo) covers 25 domains with compliance proof packs, AgentShield API access, and benchmark comparisons. MSP Partner (for agencies managing client domains) and Enterprise (for large orgs securing their own domains) are both custom-priced. For context (public estimates, not quotes): Red Sift starts at ~$500+/mo. Valimail Enforce starts around $5K/year and rises to DigiCert ONE enterprise minimums. Proofpoint and Agari require enterprise sales ($25K-$100K+/year). PowerDMARC starts at $8/mo, focused on DMARC rather than SSL, DNS depth, or PQC. Vysiro covers 29 security categories at a fraction of enterprise alternatives.
What is the MCP server and why does it matter?
The MCP (Model Context Protocol) server allows AI agents - including Claude, GPT-4, and other LLMs - to interact with Vysiro natively using JSON-RPC 2.0. AI coding assistants, security automation bots, and CI/CD pipelines can scan domains, retrieve TrustScores, check protocols, and compare configurations without custom integration code. We are not aware of another domain security platform shipping a native MCP server (mid-2026).
