# What is GEROBUG? The First Open Source Self-managed Bug Bounty Platform. Are you a company, planning to have your own bug bounty program, with minimum budget? **We got you!** We are aware that some organizations have had difficulty establishing their own bug bounty program. If you know what you're doing, using a third-party managed platform usually comes with a hefty price tag and increased security concerns. However, creating your own independently run platform will take time and effort. This is where **Gerobug** takes part, we are creating an independent platform that can solve those issues. Any company won’t need to worry on managing the flows to start a private bug bounty program since they only need **one command** to run and launch the program. ## **TL;DR** Gerobug is FREE and may help companies start and manage their own bug bounty program within minutes. --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
