What we cannot do
We test against a defined scope and report what we find. We do not guarantee bug-free releases. We do not write your product code. We are not a certified penetration-testing firm and do not issue compliance attestations. Coverage limits per plan are explicit and apply.
A flat monthly service that tests every release against a published checklist, grows an automated suite in your repository, and sends a monthly report, with one named QA lead. The plans differ by release cadence, surfaces, flow limits and environments, all shown in the table above.
QA as a service pricing
Published: $2,900, $5,900 and $9,900 a month for Starter, Growth and Scale, and $1,200 one-time for the coverage audit. No setup fee. The agency plan is quoted per project. What each price includes and excludes is on the plan cards; nothing is metered.
Flat fee QA service
Every plan is a flat monthly fee with the scope written on this page. The limits are the scope: flows automated by month 2, releases per week, environments, surfaces. Work within the scope is included; work outside it means a different plan, not an invoice.
