QA Partnerships Built for Long-Term Quality

We don't sell testing hours or transactional services. Assurix partners with product teams to take long-term ownership of software quality so every release feels predictable, stable, and ready for real users.

Modern product teams move fast.

Unfortunately, quality issues move even faster.

A single production incident can quickly outweigh months of structured QA partnership—through:

Lost engineering time
Customer churn
Emergency fixes
Delayed roadmaps

Assurix exists to remove that uncertainty by acting as an embedded QA partner who owns quality alongside your team.

How Our Pricing Works

Our pricing is designed around partnership, not volume.

Instead of charging for hours, test cases, or tools, we price based on the level of quality ownership your product needs.

Pricing typically depends on:

Product complexity and architecture

The technical scope and systems involved in your product

How often you release

Your deployment frequency and release cadence

Current automation maturity

Your existing test automation coverage and infrastructure

Team size and development workflows

How your development team operates day-to-day

All engagements are ongoing partnerships focused on consistent quality and long-term outcomes.
