Use case

Agency AI agent QA: test the risky customer paths before launch.

Who it is for

This page is built for AI agencies, automation studios, web shops, and consultants managing client agents.

The goal is not a generic bot grade. The goal is to find the failure paths that would hurt this workflow in the wild, explain them with evidence, and give the team a clean retest path after the fix.

Risk focus

The test should pressure the agent where this workflow can break.

Report should clarify
01

A client-readable launch recommendation.

02

Evidence that separates bot behavior from agency opinion.

03

A repeatable QA motion agencies can add before handoff.

Checks

What to test

  1. Run scenario families that match the client's channel and industry.
  2. Expose where the agent contradicts the client's business rules.
  3. Turn failures into clear backlog items instead of raw transcript noise.
  4. Retest the patched paths before a client launch or renewal conversation.
Report

What the report should answer

  2. Evidence that separates bot behavior from agency opinion.
  3. A repeatable QA motion agencies can add before handoff.
How it compares

This is not generic chatbot testing.

Generic QA

Checks whether the bot can answer common questions.

Useful, but often too happy-path. It may miss the customer pressure that exposes policy bypasses, handoff gaps, privacy risk, or conversion dead ends.

Launch testing

Checks whether this workflow can survive real customers.

A useful output goes past pass or fail. It gives you a transcript-backed launch report with severity, expected safer behavior, fix guidance, and a retest path.
