Show HN: Testzilla (BG S24) – Simplified Automated Testing for Voice AI Calls
run.testzilla.ai
I love Voice AI systems because I hate phone calls. Ironic, huh?
When designing Voice AI solutions, I quickly tired of the cycle of "Update system, test call flows, repeat" that went with it. The whole point of Voice AI for me was so that I could get off the phone, not spend even more time on it.
So I made some Voice AI agents to test my Voice AI system so I didn't have to.
It worked great, saved me tons of time testing and retesting systems, let me spend time designing systems instead of testing them, and let me spend more time in The Flow. Win.
I showed it to other developers who got excited and wanted to use with their systems. I heard this enough times that I decided to make it a platform I could share and easily use on multiple projects, have a simple UI, and let me run tests from my desktop or mobile with a click, and not spend 5-30 minutes of awkward time talking to phonebots in a crowded office. Win.
It also has the benefit of being a way to PROVE to clients that their AI system is working properly, answering questions the right way, NOT answering questions the right way, and that any advanced functionality (lookups, appointments, etc) works properly. Win.
I invite you to give Testzilla a spin and try it out. It's made my own dev life much easier, and I'm hoping it will make yours better, too. We've developed it with a focus on ease of use and simple design. We're still building out more elements (like the help pages) and features, but I wanted to get this out and have people using it and get real life feedback (there's a feedback button in the app you can use) before applying too much polish.
Try it: https://run.testzilla.ai ($20 in free credits to try it out, login required to prevent abuse, $0.50/min for tests)
Demo video (7 min): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MUaGQmBZSw8
Home Page w/pitch (for general public): https://testzilla.ai/
I'd love to hear feedback and suggestions on how we can make this even better.
Cheers,
Brian
PS: I had originally called this "Testbot", but we were told that we couldn't trademark that (too descriptive) so we rebranded as Testzilla (nods to the great Mozilla team and a famous reptile) so you may still see Testbot in emails or other places as we work through the rebranding details.
