Time to onboard a source
so the POC covers your real source mix
Fleak forks your real production telemetry to two or three candidate SIEMs at once, each in its native format. The bake-off compares detection, search, and cost on identical events, and the incumbent never notices.

SIEM ingest reduction
modeled into every candidate's price
A proof of concept onboards three sources, runs the vendor's sample detections, and prices a volume nobody will actually send.
Onboarding every source into every candidate takes months, so the POC tests the easy ones and the hard ones show up after the contract.
Each candidate ingests a different slice at a different time. Detection results can't be compared because the inputs weren't the same.
Quotes assume you send everything. Nobody models what each SIEM costs once the noise is routed somewhere cheaper.
Fleak collects each source once and forks it to every SIEM in the evaluation, so the decision rests on identical data and real numbers.
Send the same production events to Splunk, Microsoft Sentinel, Google SecOps, Palo Alto XSIAM, CrowdStrike NG-SIEM, or Elastic at the same time.
Every candidate receives events in the schema its content expects, so out-of-the-box detections get a fair test.
AI-generated parsers onboard the long tail in days, so the evaluation includes the custom apps and legacy devices that usually get left out.
Measure the volume each candidate would ingest after filtering and routing, and price it at each vendor's real rate.
The current SIEM keeps receiving exactly what it receives today. Evaluations run in parallel and end without a cleanup project.
The pipeline built for the POC becomes the production pipeline for the winner. The migration starts the day you sign.
Simulate realistic attack and benign telemetry to test candidates on scenarios your environment hasn't produced yet, without exposing production data.
Sensitive fields are masked before data reaches any candidate, so a POC never turns into a compliance exception.
Score every candidate on the same checklist: detections fired, search speed, onboarding effort, and modeled cost.
Same events, every candidate, side by side. Then keep the pipeline for the winner.
Choose the sources your detections depend on, including the ones vendors struggle to parse.
Add each candidate SIEM as a destination in its native format. The incumbent is untouched.
Run your own detections and hunts on identical data in every platform and compare the results.
Choose on detection quality and modeled cost, then promote the winner's pipeline to production.
The Brain generates a mapping per candidate from the same samples. The Muscle forks every event deterministically, so differences in the results come from the platforms, not from the data.
Candidates
Three SIEM candidates, one 30-day evaluation.
What does each one receive?
Incumbent
UntouchedKeeps receiving every source exactly as today. Nobody re-points a forwarder.
Candidates
Live dataEach gets the same production events in its own format, including the long-tail sources.
Scorecard
EvidenceDetection hits, search speed, and modeled cost per candidate, measured on identical data.
Run the evaluation on your data, at your volume, with your detections. Then keep the pipeline for whichever platform wins.
"A SIEM evaluation is only as good as the data you feed it. Feed every candidate the same events, and the decision makes itself."
