## Shortlist

### 1. Functionize Studio

Agentic end-to-end test platform that builds, runs and repairs tests against your live web app.

**Where it improves on Applitools:**
- [Runs autonomously: yes — A single prompt produces a built, executed and self-maintained test, including re-runs on failure and fixes applied without a person in the step.](https://www.functionize.com/agent-tasks)
- [Model choice: partial — The vendor picks the models by default, and only the enterprise deployment bullet offers bringing your own model and data alongside private deployment.](https://www.functionize.com/architecture)
- [Free tier: yes — A standing $0 plan with no time limit and no card gives all agent capabilities, five parallel runs and a monthly credit grant.](https://www.functionize.com/pricing)

**Trade-offs against Applitools:**
- [Claude: no — The reasoning and element models are Functionize's own rather than a hosted frontier model; Claude appears only as an MCP client that calls Studio, not as a model option.](https://www.functionize.com/)
- [GPT: no — The vendor answers the wrapper question directly: the element model and data layer are in-house and no third-party model endpoint sits under a result.](https://www.functionize.com/architecture)
- [In your pipeline: partial — Enterprise prose claims CI/CD hookup through the same integration layer, yet the integrations page itself is a 'Coming Soon' placeholder with an MCP waitlist, so pipeline use is not demonstrably live.](https://www.functionize.com/enterprise)
