Fractional QA Retainer

from $800/mo

What it is

Ongoing QA on a set number of hours each month (20 hrs) — your fractional QA team, without the cost or commitment of a full-time hire. As your product evolves, so does the coverage protecting it.

What's included

  • Maintaining and expanding your Playwright suite as features ship
  • Running regressions on a schedule and after major changes
  • Ongoing exploratory bug hunting on new and existing flows
  • Filed, prioritized bug reports as issues turn up — no backlog surprises
  • A predictable monthly block of hours, billed the same way every month

Example: a real engagement

My first engagement started exactly this way: embedded QA for an early-stage vehicle-management app, running black-box testing and a scheduled Playwright suite as the product kept shipping — dozens of bugs caught pre-launch, with the suite standing as a permanent regression safety net afterward.

Best for

Teams that already have (or just built) a suite and want continuous coverage as the product grows, without hiring a full-time QA engineer.
