The web dashboard visualizes conversation trees so you can spot exactly where "skeptical_dev" bails versus "casual_mobile." What's useful: the personas aren't just prompt prefixes — they maintain memory across turns, simulate typing delays, and can be seeded with prior context (e.g., "user saw pricing page but didn't convert"). You can also inject adversarial behaviors: hallucination triggers, prompt injection attempts, multi-language code-switching. Still rough edges: no native CI/CD integration yet (GitHub Action is on the roadmap), and the persona library is small — you'll spend time crafting your own. Export format is JSONL only; would love Parquet for heavier analysis. If you're iterating on LLM-driven onboarding, support bots, or survey logic, this beats manual testing by a mile. Free tier covers 500 simulations/month.
