About Applause
Release Faster, With Confidence
We help brands do it every day. How? By testing with real people in the real world. As crowdtesting pioneers, we connect the world’s greatest enterprises with the world’s largest testing community, supported by AI and automation. So brands can build better, release with confidence and deliver digital experiences customers love.
A Release Partner With a Modern Approach to Digital Quality
It's a bold statement that we proudly own
Why are we so different? Our fully managed services, our AI-enabled platform, our testing community, our shared values. Applause’s approach to testing and quality enables scale and flexibility for clients navigating QA in the AI era. How? First, we’ve built the world’s largest testing community. Over 1.5M+ independent experts and end users who can match any demographic, testing configuration or experience required. This global community works hand-in-hand with the Applause team, delivering meaningful, actionable business insights to our clients daily. Unlike traditional testing companies and models (including lab-based and offshoring), we make it easy for development teams to build and release better apps, websites and more.
Supported by the broad resources of Vista Equity Partners, we are proud to be the release partner for all aspects of digital quality.
Real Solutions for Every Digital Quality Challenge
From manual testing to automation, AI and voice to usability and customer experience, we’ve got it covered. Our years of know-how span the SDLC, all industries and all use cases.
We’re Relentlessly Authentic
We work hard and we play hard. We’re a smart, diverse, fun group, with a maniacal focus on customer success. Each day, we celebrate authenticity, as individuals and as a global team.
Choose Your Own Office Adventure
