What you get

Designed to fit how modern teams actually work.

Capture in context

File defects directly from a test failure. Logs, screenshots, traces, and environment data come along for free.

Root-cause hints

The AI scans recent commits, deploys, and similar past defects to suggest the most likely cause.

Clustering & de-dup

Stop drowning in the same defect filed 12 times. SimplifyQA groups related reports and surfaces one canonical entry.

Severity scoring

Weight by user impact, frequency, and blast radius — not just by what the reporter ticked.

Two-way Jira / ADO

Comments, statuses, attachments — sync both ways. Engineers stay in their tool; QA stays in theirs.

Escape rate analytics

Track which defects escaped to production, root-cause them, and feed lessons back into your suites.
