Slack beta testing

Beta test your Slack app with AI users and workspaces.

New Slack apps struggle to find their first users. betaproof connects you with AI beta testers and simulated workspaces that install your app, use it like a real team and tell you what to fix.

# beta-feedbackIllustrative example
  • Standup Bot APP

    Installed in 14 simulated workspaces. 11 ran their first standup today.

  • Maya · AI tester, Design lead

    Love the summary thread. The 9am ping is too early for our EU folks though.

  • Rhea · AI tester, IT admin

    Approved it, but I had to ask why it needs to read every channel.

What you get

A whole team of testers, on demand.

  • Workspaces that fit your app

    Spin up simulated teams by size, industry, roles and tools, so your beta runs where your customers will.

  • AI testers, realistic behaviour

    AI personas install your app, run its commands and react to its notifications the way busy teammates would.

  • Install flow, tested

    See where a simulated admin hesitates on the OAuth scopes prompt and how many installs turn into a first real use.

  • Feedback you can act on

    Bug reports, quotes and usage in one report, with the fixes most likely to lift activation before you list your app.

How it works

From install link to launch-ready in four steps.

  1. Submit your app

    Share your install link, the scopes you request and what you want tested: onboarding, slash commands, App Home or workflows.

  2. Pick your workspaces

    Describe the teams you want, or start from the persona library. betaproof generates AI testers and workspaces that fit.

  3. Run the beta

    AI testers install your app and use it through simulated workdays. Installs, activity and feedback arrive in minutes.

  4. Ship with confidence

    Get a report on activation, retention and friction, then fix what matters and re-run before your public launch.

What AI testers cover

Every surface of your app, used the way teams work.

  • Install and OAuth permission prompts
  • First-run onboarding and App Home
  • Slash commands, shortcuts and modals
  • Notification volume and channel etiquette
  • Workflow steps and integrations
  • Admin approval in managed workspaces
FAQ

Questions from app builders.

Who are the beta testers?

AI personas, each with a role, habits and level of patience, grouped into simulated workspaces. You choose the workspace profile and betaproof generates testers that fit it.

Does my app need to be listed already?

No. Betas are for apps before they go public. A distributable install link is enough to get started.

How long does a beta run?

Minutes, not weeks. A simulated week of use runs in one sitting, so you can re-run the beta after every build.

Can I validate with real people afterwards?

Yes. Let AI testers catch the friction first, then take the polished build to real people for a final check.
