How Stably ships AI testing agents in hours, not weeks

Stably, a six-person startup, experienced significant growth and efficiency improvements by utilizing Vercel's platform to eliminate infrastructure anxiety, allowing them to accelerate the development and deployment of their AI testing agents. Initially facing bottlenecks due to the need for infrastructure decisions and deployment concerns, the company shifted its focus from managing complex DevOps to leveraging Vercel's tools, boosting their ability to launch new products quickly and enhancing their autonomous testing capabilities. Co-founders Jinjing Liang and Neil, with backgrounds from Google Chrome and Uber, emphasized reliability and lean operations, relying on AI tools to optimize their processes. Winning Vercel’s AI Accelerator provided validation and opened doors for enterprise contracts, while the experience reshaped their approach to product development and pricing strategy. As a result, Stably transitioned from treating testing as an afterthought to embedding it directly into the developer workflow, leading to increased enterprise traction and plans to open-source more of their core product.
