AI user-testing agents for builders, validated by real human feedback.

A builder enters a product URL + a task. UserSwarm fans out AI personas that drive the product with a browser agent, produce strict-JSON UX reports, then:

• Orkes / Agentspan orchestrates the durable multi-agent workflow,
• Terac collects human preference labels that calibrate the agent,
• Arize traces every run and evaluates report quality,

…and the agent is improved from those labels and rerun to prove measurable before/after gains.

AI user agents give instant UX feedback; Terac human labels calibrate whether that feedback is trustworthy; Arize proves improvement; Orkes/Agentspan coordinates the workflow. Not a replacement for real user research — a way to make synthetic user testing trustworthy.

Every sponsor integration has a real code path and a mock code path behind one interface. Mock mode auto-enables when a credential/server is missing, so the entire demo runs fully offline with zero env vars. Add a key to flip that integration live. Persistence uses Supabase/Postgres via DATABASE_URL, with a SQLite fallback when it's unset.

cd backend
python3 -m venv .venv && source .venv/bin/activate
pip install -r requirements.txt
playwright install chromium          # optional; static fallback works without it
uvicorn app.main:app --reload        # http://localhost:8000  (GET / shows mock/live modes)

cd frontend
npm install
cp .env.local.example .env.local     # NEXT_PUBLIC_API_URL=http://localhost:8000
npm run dev                          # http://localhost:3000

Open http://localhost:3000 and submit a run.

1. Submit on /: a real public URL (e.g. https://example.com), product description, target audience, a task, and success criteria. → redirects to the run page.
2. /runs/[id] — watch the Agentspan workflow timeline advance: PersonaGenerator → UXTester ×N → Aggregator → Evals. See 3–5 personas, each tester's real browser step log (open_url / get_page_state / click / scroll) with screenshots, friction points, severity, recommendations, Arize eval scores, and the Terac human-agreement score.
3. Annotate → /annotate/[id]: act as a Terac human labeller; answer the six questions (usefulness, specificity, hallucination, task understanding, real-user agreement, A/B). Submit → the human-agreement eval updates.
4. Run Improvement — the ImproverAgent turns labels + failing evals into an improved prompt and reruns the workflow as an improved variant.
5. Compare → /runs/[id]/compare: base vs improved table — usefulness, evidence coverage, hallucination risk, human agreement, actionability pass rate, task-success rate, with deltas.

To show live mode: set ANTHROPIC_API_KEY (and optionally AGENTSPAN_SERVER_URL, ARIZE_API_KEY+ARIZE_SPACE_ID, TERAC_API_KEY), restart, and rerun — real Claude output and real spans, with mock fallback intact for any still-missing credential.

• Agentspan / Orkes: pip install agentspan → agentspan server start (UI at http://localhost:6767) → set AGENTSPAN_SERVER_URL. The same DAG nodes register/run on Agentspan; the dashboard timeline reflects them.
• Arize: set ARIZE_API_KEY + ARIZE_SPACE_ID (install arize-otel + openinference-instrumentation). Every run, persona-gen, UX agent, browser tool call, aggregation, improved-prompt gen, and rerun is traced; six evals are logged.
• Terac: set TERAC_API_KEY. Real annotation jobs are created from agent reports; the terac.py adapter has # TODO markers for the exact endpoint/payload — drop them in. The /annotate route already writes real human labels regardless of mode.

Each agent is capped at 8–12 actions; purchase / payment / delete / send / invite / destructive clicks are blocked; login-required pages with no credentials stop and report; if automation is blocked the agent falls back to static page review.
