Problem

Anyone can build an app now. Testing it has not caught up.

In this age of AI, anyone can build anything. But when it is time to test it, everything breaks. Teams spend days fixing the AI's mistakes, and some founders spend months just looking for the problem.

  1. Every commit can break something.

  2. Manual testing does not scale.

  3. Test scripts go stale.

  4. Bug reports lack proof.

The market shift

Software is being written faster than ever. Quality has to keep up.

Developers do not trust it yet.84% of developers use or plan to use AI tools, but 46% distrust their accuracy, and 66% say the answers are “almost right, but not quite”.
