Testers.AI turns your iPhone into a professional QA engineer. Tap the Safari extension on any web page and AI agents immediately get to work β clicking, scrolling, filling forms, and probing for problems like a seasoned tester would. When they're done, a detailed bug report lands in the app: every issue ranked by severity, with steps to reproduce, screenshots, expected vs. actual behavior, and AI-generated fix suggestions. INTELLIGENT EXPLORATION Choose from eight exploration styles β Happy Path, Smoke, Negative, Edge Case, Scenario, Monkey, Adversarial, and Destructive β and focus the agents on what matters most: accessibility, security, performance, UX, forms, navigation, or content. The agents adapt their behavior to the style and focus you select. MULTI-AGENT TESTING Run up to several AI agents in serial across the same page. Each agent brings a different testing persona and approach, giving you broader coverage than any single pass could achieve. BATCH MODE Test an entire list of URLs in one go. Paste them in, or just describe what you want ("top e-commerce checkout pages") and let the AI generate the list for you β even by voice. Results land in a competitive comparison view so you can see which sites have the most issues at a glance. DETAILED REPORTS Every exploration session is saved to your history with: β’ Issues sorted by severity (Critical β Suggestion) β’ Agent step-by-step replay β’ AI summary of what was found β’ Hero stats: issues found, steps taken, agents used EXPORT ANYWHERE Share results as plain text, JSON, or JIRA wiki markup β ready to paste straight into your bug tracker. Copy individual issues, share full reports, or export a screenshot of the results to send to your team. ISSUES DASHBOARD The Issues tab organizes every bug found across all your sessions by domain and URL, so you can track quality trends across the sites you care about over time. BATCH COMPARE Run the same test across multiple competitors or pages, then review a side-by-side bar chart ranking them by issue count and severity. Great for competitive audits and regression checks before launch. PRIVACY FIRST All exploration history is stored locally on your device. No account required to get started. Testers.AI is built for developers, QA engineers, product managers, and anyone who cares about shipping quality software. Unlock full access with your Testers.AI account for unlimited testing and team sync.
BentoTerm

Your agents run for forty minutes at a time. Watching one is a waste of you β so you run several, and the problem becomes keeping track of them all. Bento Term is a terminal built for exactly that. A WHOLE TEAM, ONE SCREEN Every agent gets a pane, tinted by what it's doing: blue is working, amber is waiting for you, green is done and you haven't looked yet. You read the room instead of visiting each one. Parallel mode tiles everything; Focus mode gives one pane the whole screen with the rest in a sidebar. SAY IT, DON'T TYPE IT Hold on a pane and talk. Speaking is about three times faster than typing, and Bento reads the screen, so file names and technical words come out right β mixed Chinese/English included. Slide up to send, down to cancel. LEAVE THE DESK, NOT THE WORK Everything runs in tmux on your machine β your Mac, a Linux server, or WSL β over plain SSH, with nothing installed on the other end. Quit the app, close the laptop: nothing stops. Attach from iPhone or iPad mid-run and answer from wherever you are. EVERY DAY - The file tree of every pane's working directory. Tap a printed path and it opens with syntax highlighting, even at :42. PDFs and images too. - Panes move like windows: split, drag, drop β every move is a real tmux move. - Pick a folder, pick an agent, and Bento opens the panes and starts them. No shell needed. - Ten agents recognized out of the box β Claude Code, Codex, Gemini CLI and more β every profile editable, so a tool nobody has heard of yet is one profile away. BUILT LIKE A TERMINAL Native Swift, the same GPU renderer as Ghostty (libghostty), real tmux control mode (-CC). No accounts. Your terminal output never leaves your machines. Free and open source, Apache-2.0. Requires a machine you can ssh into with tmux installed. macOS, Linux and WSL all work.
