TestFi vs Testlio

Testlio is a fully managed QA service: their team plans test runs, assigns vetted testers, and reports results, under an enterprise contract. TestFi is a self-serve marketplace: you create a campaign yourself, hand-pick testers, and get screen recordings plus AI-scored UX reports for $1.99 to $3.99 per tester. Managed service versus marketplace is the core difference.

TestFi. Testlio is priced and structured for enterprise release cycles, which puts it out of reach for most indie developers. TestFi covers the same core need, real people testing your app on real devices, at per-tester prices with no contract. Most campaigns launch in minutes.

Testlio does not publish pricing, engagements are quoted per client and generally sized for enterprise QA budgets. TestFi charges $1.99 per written-feedback tester and $3.99 per video tester. A 12-tester video campaign costs $47.88 total.

Testlio can run Android test cycles as part of a managed engagement, but hiring a managed QA firm to satisfy the Google Play 12-tester rule is overkill. TestFi has a dedicated closed-testing flow where 12+ real testers opt in and stay opted in for the 14-day window, with feedback included.

Choose Testlio if you are an established company that wants QA fully taken off your plate, with dedicated test leads, structured regression cycles, and a budget for an annual contract. Choose TestFi if you are a developer or small team that wants fast, affordable human feedback and Google Play closed-testing support without a sales process.
