Semaloop, next to
the alternatives.
How Semaloop differs from each tool, and when the other one is the better choice.
Scripted test frameworks
You write and maintain scripts against selectors. In Semaloop you write what should be true, and the agent works out the taps.
Device clouds and visual layers
They run or extend a suite you already have. Semaloop is the suite, so there is nothing else to build first.
Managed QA services
People write or run the tests for you. Semaloop is software your team runs, with results in your CI and Slack.
AI testing agents
The closest neighbours. The differences are in what tests run on, how builds get in, and how pass or fail is decided.

Use cases
How teams use Semaloop, one page per question buyers ask. See all use cases.
Natural language mobile app testing
Natural language mobile app testing means writing a test as a description of what should be true, and Semaloop is a tool that runs those descriptions on real iPhones and Android emulators against every build you ship.
Real-device iOS testing
Semaloop runs your iOS tests on real iPhones, from the iPhone 14 upwards on iOS 18 and later, and returns video, system logs and network traces with every run.
Continuous mobile testing
Semaloop is a continuous mobile testing tool: every new TestFlight build, and every APK, .app or .ipa your CI pushes, automatically gets a run of every active test, with no one needing to kick off a cycle.
Self-healing mobile tests
Semaloop's self-healing works because a test is a description of intent rather than a script: when a button moves or a screen is redesigned, the agent finds the new route to the same goal instead of failing on a missing selector.
Debugging mobile test failures
When a test fails, Semaloop gives you a high-FPS video replay, a step-by-step interaction timeline, system logs, network activity, a root cause analysis and a suggested fix, all on the run's page.
Mobile test integrations
Semaloop integrates with GitHub (pull request checks and a build-push Action), Slack, webhooks, an MCP server and a CLI, so builds go in from your CI and results come out where your team already works.
Still deciding?
The fastest way to settle it is to point Semaloop at your own app and look at the runs.
