The mainstream beta-testing tools share one architectural assumption: the company being tested controls the tooling. That leaves the tester with a recurring set of frustrations. BetaSuite was built specifically to close those gaps.
The problem
You can't capture screen and camera at the same time.
A video that shows "I'm tapping here, and this is what the device does" usually needs two phones and a tripod.
BetaSuite's answer
Dual recording films the hardware through the rear camera — front lens one tap away — and composites it picture-in-picture with your screen into one MP4 file, not two clips to sync. No tripod. No second phone.

The problem
Intermittent bugs vanish before you hit record.
By the time you've started capture, the glitch is gone — and reproducing it is a guessing game.
BetaSuite's answer
Instant Capture keeps a rolling 15- or 30-second buffer in the background. One tap saves the moment that just passed. No setup, no missed evidence.
The problem
NDA work makes cloud AI a non-starter.
Every cloud provider is a leak risk, so reports end up handwritten and slow.
BetaSuite's answer
Confidential Mode locks down cloud uploads, system share, and every cloud AI provider — while Apple Intelligence keeps running fully on-device, zero network calls. AI polish and summaries still work on confidential hardware.
The problem
Vendor SDKs ship your data to the vendor's cloud.
Mainstream beta-testing tools send tester data to a vendor backend — fine for the company, not for sensitive prototypes.
BetaSuite's answer
BetaSuite has no server of its own. Your project database is encrypted on the device, your captures stay in the app's private storage, and data only moves when you pick a destination — your Camera Roll, a folder your own cloud app syncs, or a portable archive file.
The problem
The weekly report is the slowest part of the job.
Blank-page paralysis, especially when you're juggling multiple programs.
BetaSuite's answer
The period summary drafts a structured report — theme, positives, issues, recommendations — straight from the markers and feedback you've already logged. PDF or DOCX, scannable bullets, ready to email.
The problem
Beta-testing tools are often English-only.
Multi-language support, when it exists, often ships stale and ages badly.
BetaSuite's answer
Now shipping in 28 languages — BetaSuite follows your device language live, so testers in Tokyo, Berlin, or São Paulo all see the app in their own.
The problem
There's no structured way to prove you tested everything.
A test plan usually lives in a spreadsheet or someone's head — so the same checklist gets re-typed every cycle, and steps quietly get skipped.
BetaSuite's answer
Build a reusable protocol — or let BetaSuite Assist draft one from a sentence or a manufacturer’s PDF. Run it step by step with every verdict — Pass/Fail, rating, NPS, or multiple choice — landing in the report, then share the whole set as a copy-paste code or a file.

Timeline-based sessions
Markers, voice notes, photos — all on one timeline.
Drop a one-tap marker the second something happens. Attach a screenshot, dictate a voice note, or expand into a full bug report later. Every session captures device state, OS, battery health, and weather automatically — context is never missing.
Author test protocols on the web
No app needed — write a protocol in your browser, hand testers one code.
Engineers without the app can write a full test protocol on a simple web page, including per-step required photo, video, or dual-recording capture, then generate a single code. Testers import that code in BetaSuite and run it like any other protocol — even translating it into their own language with one tap. Paste the code back into the web builder any time to keep editing.

Required evidence per step
Demand a photo, video, or dual recording per step.
A protocol step can require a photo, a video or a dual recording before it can be answered — so the evidence you asked for actually comes back.
Single-run protocol reports
A focused PDF for one protocol run.
Finish a protocol run and generate a short, single-purpose PDF for just that run — separate from the full period report.
Data sidecar with every report
A .json and .csv riding alongside every PDF.
Every report can ship with a machine-readable .json and .csv beside the PDF, so an engineer can load your findings straight into their own tooling instead of re-typing them.
AI routing, your way
BetaSuite Assist by default, or switch to on-device Apple Intelligence on iPhone & iPad. Or bring your own key.
BetaSuite Assist (cloud) is the default AI provider on every platform. On iPhone and iPad, switch to Apple Intelligence in Settings any time to keep report and summary generation fully on-device instead. Prefer your own provider? Bring your API key for Claude, GPT, Gemini, or DeepSeek. Pollinations is an emergency fallback. Switch providers any time in Settings — every change asks for explicit consent before data leaves the device.
Apple Intelligence and on-device transcription are iPhone & iPad features. On Android, BetaSuite uses BetaSuite Assist cloud AI or your own API key.
Dial your AI use
Off, polish only, profanity masking, or full summarisation.
Choose how much the AI does for you — minor wording polish on a feedback entry, profanity masking before a report goes out, or full session summarisation and report generation. The feedback form itself starts simple and expands only when you need category, severity, repro steps, annotated screenshots, and voice notes.
Project structure that scales
One project per product, instant capture for everything else.
Group sessions, feedback, and reports under named projects. Attach NDAs and contacts per project — or skip setup entirely and use the always-pinned Instant Capture project for one-off finds.
Share to Discord in one tap
Auto-compressed to fit Discord's 10 MB limit.
Sending a clip to a tester Discord? One tap compresses it to fit the 10 MB limit, instead of the upload bouncing.
Competitors instrument the product. BetaSuite instruments the tester.
