What it does
Applitools is a testing platform built around two products. Eyes adds Visual AI checks to web and mobile test suites and runs tests in parallel across many browsers and devices. Autonomous lets QA staff describe user journeys in plain English and runs them as self-healing tests. The homepage pitch is about checking AI-written code. The vendor argues that validating such code with LLM agents is probabilistic, and offers what it calls a Deterministic Language Model paired with Visual AI so results are reproducible. It says the visual model was trained on four billion proprietary images. It can run as SaaS, in a dedicated cloud on Amazon, Azure or GCP, or on-premises inside a firewall. The site states ISO 27001 and SOC 2 Type II compliance, supports SSO and SAML, and lists more than 60 integrations with test frameworks, CI/CD tools, bug trackers and chat tools. Test targets named on the site include websites, Storybook components, Figma designs, native mobile apps and PDF documents, with Playwright among the listed technologies.
