Case Study: TrendKite achieves 27x testing capacity and $3.3M annual QA savings with Rainforest QA

Increasing Cross-Browser Coverage Without Adding Headcount

TrendKite, a PR analytics software company in Austin, was facing a growing regression-testing bottleneck as its customer base, codebase, and development team scaled. Developers owned QA through code reviews and automated tests, but manual regression and cross‑browser testing were slowing continuous delivery and threatening velocity.

By integrating Rainforest’s on‑demand crowdtesting into their release process, TrendKite runs repeatable regression suites (with multi‑browser screenshots) that return results in about 30 minutes, freeing developers to focus on complex testing and feature work. The change boosted testing capacity 27x, eliminated the need for dedicated in‑house QA, and reduced QA costs by $3.3M annually while improving cross‑browser coverage and release confidence.
