While the cybersecurity world chases the latest zero-day exploit, Anchore is betting the house on a boring, bureaucratic document: the Software Bill of Materials (SBOM). They aren't just scanning containers; they are automating the supply chain compliance that keeps the US government and Fortune 500s from getting hacked.

"Anchore isn't selling security tools; they are selling the audit trail that proves you aren't liable."

The raw data reveals a focused, lean operation. They aren't burning cash on massive headcount; they are engineering-led. The tech stack—anchored by Vite, Tailwind, and jQuery—suggests a pragmatic, performance-first approach rather than chasing the latest frontend fads. This is infrastructure software, not a consumer app.

• Revenue Efficiency: Generating $17.5M with just 86 employees implies high revenue-per-head (~$203k/employee).
• Brand Ambiguity: Interestingly, 'grype' (their tool) sees higher search volume than 'anchore,' indicating strong developer adoption independent of the corporate brand.
• Traffic Quality: With 46% organic search and 38% direct traffic, they rely less on paid ads and more on SEO and direct intent—signs of a product-led growth motion.
