When I hand off a build to a client, if all the red dots are gone, I know I’ve at least TOUCHED everything.
If I’m working with another engineer, we can both see the dots in our browser and collaborate to clear them all while we test.
It’s free to use for now. I’d like to bill heavy corporate users someday. Not sure what the criteria will be for that.
My assumption from glancing at the page was that I'd only be interested if I could have the full version, and that I might be willing to buy a license to own it but not to pay a subscription to keep using it. Mainly because I don't mind an impulse purchase that's half hoping to turn out worth buying and half supporting a dev / product creator I think worth supporting, whereas if something wants money every month I want to actually know it's going to be a good use of money long-term, which is a much higher bar to clear in my mind.
A side-thought: if it turned out to be a useful enough tool that I started getting colleagues to use it, and incorporating it in work done for clients, then I'd prefer it to be open source and ideally easy to customise / potentially white label.
I don’t know what to do about pricing, only that I’m leaning towards a freemium model where hobbyists and occasional users pay nothing.
It is a cloud-based service with ongoing costs to pay and work to be done, so I think it’ll be subscription-based.
I would love to do this full-time if there is enough interest to justify the effort.
For now, I’m really excited about welcoming some real users other than myself and getting lots of bug reports and feature requests. Please give it a try and get in touch with me over email!
Especially not devs on Hacker News.
If you want to sell this (and you may not), sell into QA or product leaders.

I wanted to communicate to the other poster: - You (swores), are probably correct about everything - You (swores), and I, probably aren't buyers
There may be a ton of buyers out there who aren't us
I'm not sure I would use that endorsement...
