| The Global QA Market

As software development continues to accelerate at an unprecedented pace, QA remains stuck in an outdated, labor-intensive model. Test engineers are chronically in short supply, outsourcing costs continue to rise, and even with the introduction of SaaS tools, day-to-day operations remain a bottleneck. This dilemma is not a tooling problem—it is a structural problem with QA itself.Now, for the first time, the conditions are in place to change that structure. With AI capable of making decisions, taking action, and correcting itself autonomously, we have a unique opportunity to fundamentally transform QA and break its long-standing dependence on human labor. We intend to seize that opportunity.

| About Autify

Autify, Inc. is a startup founded in San Francisco. As the first Japanese team to graduate from the Alchemist Accelerator, we have taken on the global market with our mission to “enhance people’s creativity through the power of technology.”

Since our launch in 2019, we have been systematically reducing QA’s dependence on manual work. Autify Genesis standardizes QA operations by using AI to handle documentation tasks such as test design, planning, and reporting. Autify Aximo enables AI to autonomously interpret and interact with user interfaces—without the need for scripting. Autify Nexus continuously runs scripted regression tests at low cost, with speed and stability. By putting AI at the center of every stage—thinking, executing, and repeating—we are building a world where QA can operate without relying on manual intervention.

Today, these products have come together as the Autify Platform, providing comprehensive support across the entire QA process, from test design through execution. Autify AI Coworker combines these products with professional QA services to take ownership of the entire process, from test design to execution. Rather than simply providing tools, we transform the work itself—and this approach is already delivering results that existing solutions have been unable to achieve.

We are transforming testing through people and technology, turning quality into a competitive advantage for businesses. And this transformation is only just beginning.

We are now looking for people who want to help make that transformation a reality. Your work will help redefine the standard for development teams around the world.
