Pixatom vs user testing tools

User testing tools help you watch people use a design. Pixatom helps you decide what to test, and gives you something to test with. They work best together.

Different jobs

Testing platforms are great at recruiting participants, recording sessions and collecting answers. But they assume you already know what to test and have a prototype ready. That is the part most teams skip, because it takes time.

Pixatom covers the part before testing:

  • It finds the riskiest assumption in your plan, so you test what matters most.
  • It suggests cheaper checks first: data you already have and people you can ask.
  • It builds a clickable prototype in your brand, with a short script for five participants.

Then run the session however you like: in person, on a call, or through a testing platform. Log what you learnt in Pixatom and the blueprint updates.

Why five people?

Five short sessions usually show the biggest problems in a flow. You do not need a large study to learn that people cannot find the cancel button. Pixatom's test plan is built around that idea: small, fast and focused on one assumption.
