Collaborative, AI-enabled preview environments

The review layer for AI-built software. From PR to approved in hours, not days.

AI ships code fast. Review, polish, and bug fixes can still take days.

Set up your workspace

Tell us a bit about your team

Agent

The CTA button is the wrong color — should be brand orange

Applied

Button updated to #F97316. Live in preview.

Disable the button until all fields are filled.

Tell the agent...

A tighter loop.

The old way
Engineer

Opens a PR and pushes a build to staging.

QA

Finds a bug. Captures screenshots, captures details, opens a ticket.

Designer

Spots a color that's wrong. Opens a ticket.

PM

Feature isn't behaving right. Opens a ticket, describes alternative.

Engineer

Collects all the tickets, fixes each one, pushes again.

Everyone re-verifies
QA

Re-verifies the fix

Designer

Re-checks the color

PM

Re-confirms the behavior

Engineer

More tickets. Fixes more. Pushes again.

Repeat. Usually takes days.
With Else
Engineer

Opens a PR. Else spins up a live environment.

QA

Finds a bug. Tells the agent to fix, immediately verifies.

Designer

Spots a color that's wrong. Changes it inline.

PM

Feature isn't behaving right. Forks, creates an alternative, shares.

Engineer

Reviews proposed changes. Approves.

Merged. Usually takes hours.

Why Else

One link. Everyone's in.

PMs, designers, QA, and engineers open the same link and see the same running app. No screen shares, no waiting for staging slots, no environment negotiation.

Already in the right state.

Open the link and you're already inside the feature: correct account, correct seeded data, correct navigation state. No manual steps to reproduce the scenario.

Feedback in the right context

Leave feedback pinned to the exact UI element you're talking about. Collaborate async or live. No more tickets with Looms and screenshots.

See it, fix it, done.

Spot something off? Fix it on the spot. Make AI-assisted edits directly inside the preview environment and see changes reflected live.
