About Kitsa

Kitsa is a clinical research network and marketplace of agentic AI solutions built for sponsors and clinical sites. Its platform streamlines complex clinical research operations, from patient pre-screening and protocol generation to campaign management, multi-role recruitment workflows, and clinical study reporting.

Kitsa operates as a fast-moving startup with a lean engineering team focused on building a powerful, AI-powered ecosystem for the clinical research industry. Every feature shipped touches critical workflows where accuracy, reliability, and compliance aren't optional.

The Challenge: High-risk releases, no dedicated QA

As Kitsa scaled its product, testing quickly became a bottleneck.

Regression testing took hours to a full day per release.
Testing was inconsistent and often rushed due to deadlines.
Traditional automation was avoided due to the high setup and maintenance effort required.
As the product evolved, updating and maintaining tests became a headache.
Bugs slipped into production, risking critical research workflows.

The core tension: What Kitsa needed was QA that worked autonomously, without creating a new class of maintenance work to manage.

"BotGauge gave us the equivalent of a dedicated QA team, but without the overhead. They automated our regression suite within a week and have been maintaining it seamlessly as the product evolves."

How BotGauge Works Within Kitsa's Workflow

BotGauge runs automated regression across Kitsa's most critical flows and sits directly inside their release process:

Regression suites execute before every release, covering core workflows including patient pre-screening flows, multi-role recruitment journeys, and protocol generation — the exact areas where a bug has the highest consequence.

Failures surface with clear context, so engineers can identify and act on issues quickly rather than triaging noisy test output.

AI agents continuously maintain and update the suite as the product evolves, so the tests stay current without manual intervention.

This means Kitsa's engineers stay focused on building. BotGauge ensures what's already built keeps working.

Results

The tangible impact of Autonomous QA on engineering velocity

80% regression coverage in under a week

The majority of Kitsa's critical flows were automated within days of onboarding, covering the end-to-end journeys that previously consumed hours of manual QA time each release.

10x faster test execution

What used to take hours now runs in a fraction of the time, giving the team quality signals without slowing down the release cycle.

40% reduction in release cycle delays

With reliable, automated regression in place, releases that previously got bottlenecked waiting on QA now move significantly faster.

Zero test maintenance burden

As Kitsa's platform grows, the test suite stays current automatically. The engineering team has not spent time on test maintenance since onboarding.

In Their Own Words

"BotGauge gave us the equivalent of a dedicated QA team, but without the overhead. They automated our regression suite within a week and have been maintaining it seamlessly as the product evolves."
