AI and Software Beta Testing Services
Your Users Will Find the Bugs. Find Them First.
Independent beta testing for AI video platforms, AI tools, SaaS and SEO software, by Maria Johnsen’s Studios.
Your team is too close to the product
Developers know how a product is supposed to work, so they unconsciously use it the right way. Customers don’t. They type strange prompts, click in the wrong order, and quietly leave when something is confusing.
Every issue they hit shows up as:
- Refunds and churn
- Support tickets
- Bad reviews
- Lost trust right when you need momentum
Independent beta testing finds these problems before launch, when fixing them is cheap.
Tested by someone who uses these tools every day
Generative AI isn’t ordinary software. Outputs change with every prompt, and quality is a matter of judgement. Maria Johnsen’s Studios tests AI products the way creators actually use them.
Every project is tested personally by Maria Johnsen, an AI engineer, filmmaker, musician and author:
- 105+ books written and 8 films produced, so “good output” is judged by a professional
- 11 years of YouTube channels, with real audience feedback on what works
- Multilingual SEO, PPC and digital marketing expertise, for testing marketing tools as a professional user
- Published nonfiction on AI and AGI, with a deep understanding of how these systems behave
- Direct access to your tester. No account managers, no hand-offs. The person who tests your product writes your report.
What you get: a report your developers can act on
No vague feedback like “the UI felt clunky.” Your team receives:
- Bug reports with exact reproduction steps
- Screenshots and screen recordings
- The prompts, inputs and outputs behind every AI issue
- Severity ratings, so you know what to fix first
- Usability findings from a real-user perspective
- A structured final report with prioritised recommendations
