3 Key Points

  1. Five predefined personas (Maya the Newbie, Dan the Buyer, Riley the Power User, Sam the Skeptic, Alex In-A-Hurry) walk through your product, reporting confusion and broken features like console errors and HTTP 5xx responses.

  2. Available as a Figma plugin (for designers), CLI agent (for developers testing localhost servers), or MCP server (for Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor, Windsurf). Same engine across all three; you provide your own Anthropic API key.

  3. Typical per-test cost is ~$0.02 for a single screenshot or ~$0.10–$0.25 for a full agent run with Sonnet 4.6; Haiku costs ~5× less and Opus ~5× more. Open source under MIT license.
