Launched in 2019, Autify is a web application that helps users who have no coding experience to create, execute, and automate software test scenarios. The platform has already been implemented across 300 business-to-consumer and business-to-business software-as-a-service companies in Japan and around the world, said the firm. The latest fundraise will fuel its global expansion and development of a mobile version.
“With 75% of companies globally still manually performing software development tests, Autify is hoping to disrupt the US$1.3 trillion global testing market by providing a no-code application for automated testing,” said Ryo Chikazawa, co-founder and CEO of Autify.
He also said that the web application addresses labor shortages, maintenance costs, and technical difficulties in the testing industry without affecting product quality.
Autify earlier raised US$2.5 million for its seed round. Recently, it has established test support for Salesforce and Mediba.
