Studio creates, runs, and repairs tests to provide independent verification of software built at agent speed
SAN FRANCISCO, July 16, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Functionize, the agent-native software testing platform, launched today Work Studiothe agent-grade platform that acts as the biggest enemy of broken code. Studio’s agents are designed to prove that software does what it’s supposed to do. Studio creates its own tests for the live application, runs them in parallel across browsers, and repairs them independently when the app changes. It bridges the gap between the speed at which code is written and the speed at which it can be reviewed. It tests everything a company uses, from customized, home-built applications to the platforms the company relies on, including Salesforce, Workday, ServiceNow and SAP.

For decades, software has become more complex than testing could keep up with. Coding agents have exacerbated the problem by making the creation of software much faster and cheaper than any quality review process should be. Companies now face an old problem with new urgency: modernizing quality control before bad code in production costs them revenue and customer trust. Studio was designed to eliminate the imbalance: an equivalent coding agent, independent of the code being reviewed, working under the mandate of proving the quality, security and reliability of every release.
“Autonomous agents are increasingly writing the majority of the software that runs the world. The dependency and associated risks are real and enduring,” he said Tamas Cser, CEO of Functionize. “Validating this code is one of the critical challenges facing organizations today. The future of validation is agent-based, but it requires an agent with an opposite purpose to the programming agents, equivalent skills and under human supervision. Studio is that agent.”
The models, data layer, and execution engine are sourced from Functionize, designed for testing, and trained on petabytes of real-world enterprise application data. Studio reads what the application does by observing its execution, not by reading the code. And the execution is deterministic: the same test produces the same result every time, allowing teams to detect true regression from noise. The result is accuracy and confidence that rivals anything AI is producing today. Testing begins with describing what needs to be checked in plain language. Studio then creates the coverage, fixes it as the application changes, and returns a verdict on each version.
While Functionize already runs enterprise-wide testing for Fortune 500 companies, Studio is introducing a chat-first interface to the platform, giving teams direct control over the agents doing the work and full visibility into quality assurance. Honeywell, an early design partner, runs millions of agents on Functionize and well over 50,000 tests run through its pipelines. An inspection of this magnitude is only possible through the use of agents.
Studio is available now for Individual (Free, Pro, and Max), Team (Grow and Scale), and Enterprise plans. For detailed information, visit functionize.com/pricing.
About Functionize
Functionize is an agent-native software testing platform. Global companies like GE Healthcare, McAfee, Markel, Geico, and Alight rely on Functionize to build, run, and fix tests at scale and prove that every release works as intended. As software becomes easier to produce, quality is the gap between what a team intended and what its customers actually achieved. Functionize aims to close it for every team on every release.
