Compares screenshots of your website over time and uses AI to flag visual changes that need attention.

How the work actually flows

A straight line. Runs once per each webpage in the list.

The problem it solves

Every release, someone has to manually click through the site checking that nothing broke visually, and subtle layout bugs still slip through. It's tedious work and it doesn't scale as the site grows.

Who it fits

Product or QA teams who want to catch visual bugs on a website without manually checking every page.

How it works

  1. A list of webpages is pulled from a spreadsheet
  2. Baseline screenshots are captured and stored
  3. On a schedule, fresh screenshots of the same pages are captured
  4. AI compares the old and new screenshots and flags differences
  5. A report of detected issues is put together
What you get

Visual bugs flagged before customers ever see them

You get a report flagging visual changes on your website so nothing slips through unnoticed.

What you get

A report flagging visual differences between website versions, ready for review.

What you need

An Apify account, a Google Gemini API key, a Google Sheets and Drive account, and a Linear account.

We can build this. But should you?

The hard question is not how to build it. It is whether this is the right thing to build first.

That is what a Fractional Chief AI Officer figures out with you, before anyone writes a line of code.
