Value proposition
Zero-maintenance autonomous QA: agent designs, runs, and owns the suite on iOS/Android/web, with session replay, logs, and fix prompts—so teams ship without flaky scripts or dedicated QA authoring.
Products and solutions
minitest (autonomous AI QA engineer for mobile/web), mobile-use open-source agent SDK, Minitap Cloud (virtual/real device testing), CI/CD and Slack-integrated release QA
Unique value
Open-source mobile-use agent saturated AndroidWorld at 100% (116/116 tasks), first to fully solve the benchmark; production minitest builds on that agent for zero-maintenance release QA.
Target customer
Mobile app developers, tech companies, and enterprises seeking to optimize mobile app performance and development workflows.
Industries served
Mobile app development, AI research, Enterprise software, Gaming, E-commerce
Technology advantage
Proprietary AI agents capable of autonomous testing/iteration on physical devices, eliminating manual QA processes.
How they differentiate
Fully autonomous agent owns the suite end-to-end (zero script authoring/maintenance) on real/virtual devices; SOTA AndroidWorld (100% of 116 tasks). Differs from scripted E2E (Maestro/Appium) and semi-agentic QA tools that still require human-authored flows.
