Target & Scope
Burp Suite Pro target management, site map, and scope features and their Caido equivalents.
Available
Target
Burp provides a view of in-scope hosts, site structure, and discovered content.
Caido splits target management across native Sitemap, Scopes, and Findings rather than a single Target tab. Sitemap shows discovered structure, Scopes define what is in bounds, and Findings tracks notable items — together covering Burp Target's role.
Resources
Site map
Burp displays a tree view of discovered hosts, directories, and endpoints.
Caido offers native Sitemap that displays discovered hosts and endpoints in a tree view. It is populated from proxied traffic; the Crawler community plugin can automate discovery to extend the sitemap beyond manual browsing.

Scope
Burp lets you define which hosts and URLs are in scope for testing.
Caido offers native Scopes to define in-scope hosts and URL patterns. Scoped traffic can be highlighted and filtered across views, similar to Burp's scope configuration.
Resources
Issue definitions
Burp lets you customize how Scanner reports and categorizes issue types.
Caido lets you define custom finding types through the Scanner plugin's custom check definitions. Custom issue types are plugin-driven rather than a built-in editor.

Indirectly Available
Crawl paths
Burp visualizes how its crawler reached specific endpoints.
Caido has no crawl-path visualization like Burp's crawler tree. Caido lets you review discovered endpoints in Sitemap, run the Crawler plugin for automated discovery, or use Workflows for custom crawling logic.
