What is a product quality studio?

A product quality studio rewrites the QA playbook, turning testing into your superpower for better software. Unlike traditional QA providers, we bring a human-centered approach to manual software testing, integrating a dedicated team that gets to know your product inside and out. This allows us to engage early to prevent issues and deliver more than just bug reports. By zeroing in on the user experience, quality that automation can’t replace, your developers can stay focused on shipping features instead of arbitrary bug fixes.

Comprehensive Quality Assurance

From user acceptance to accessibility and device testing, you can have peace of mind that we’ll spot issues automation might miss.

Dedicated QA Team

We work directly within your tools, providing the convenience and attention to detail of an in-house team — no need to login or create reports somewhere else.

User-Driven Testing

While many QA services just follow scripts, we respect the craft of building great software and advocate for users’ perspectives throughout design & development.

Proactive Issue Identification

Participating early in development leads to catching issues before they surface as bugs, rather than reacting only after problems arise.

Everything you need for a smooth, successful release cadence

User acceptance

We go beyond last-step testing and provide a continuous acceptance approach woven throughout development. From scoping to staging, we review your acceptance criteria, document clear scenarios, and keep your team aligned for cleaner releases.

Regression testing

The last thing you want is an unexpected bug popping up after release. Our approach includes regular tests focusing on high-priority areas, along with quarterly full regressions to catch any deeper issues before release.

Accessibility checks

Stay ahead of evolving accessibility standards. We follow WCAG guidelines and anticipate future compliance requirements to make sure everything is inclusive and not at risk for a fine.

Product insights

We catch potential user issues and feature conflicts early through our active involvement in planning meetings and upstream collaboration. Partnering with us early ensures your team builds a cohesive product that users can trust from day one.

Smoke tests

Relax knowing your release is solid. Our smoke tests make sure that key functionality remains intact after release, giving you peace of mind post-launch.

Exploratory testing

Look beyond the surface. Our exploratory tests simulate real-world usage to uncover usability issues, inconsistent experiences, and areas that could use refreshing.

Complaint analysis

Make every piece of feedback count. We analyze customer complaints, find the root issues, and prioritize fixes that keep your users happy and satisfied.

Cross-platform testing

Deliver a reliable experience for everyone. We test your software on various devices and browsers to be sure it performs consistently, no matter where it’s used.

Design verification

Catch inconsistencies before they get implemented everywhere. Our design verification helps you find errors early in development, minimizing the need for costly rework.

Teams around the world choose us as a QA partner that speeds you up, not slows you down.

After speaking with several team members and seeing their output of the Product Analysis they performed on one of our apps, it was very clear that they were the partner we'd been searching for. Not only do they provide testing, but they also go deeper and embed themselves into the team and overall SDLC to bring awareness on new features/functionality and how it will impact integration and the overall user experience. Lyon brings advanced insight into projects earlier on in the process which leads to less rework downstream, ensuring projects hit the mark, while ultimately saving time & money. All team members at Lyon are wonderful to collaborate and work with. They are approachable, extremely thorough, & passionate about their craft; always seeking to improve and wow their customers.

Emily Byrnes

Director of Quality & Delivery

We have a number of enterprise customers and we wanted an accessibility partner who is best in class in providing recommendations and testing services for our platform and customers. Lyon has integrated with our processes for reporting issues and that stood out for us and sold us on the partnership.

We want you to release with confidence, every time

Hey, I’m Cotopaxi, the founder of Lyon.

Ever feel like QA is a race against the clock, with last-minute bugs putting your product at risk? With over a decade of experience in QA, I created Lyon because I saw too many tech companies compromise on quality to meet release dates. Traditional QA sees testing as a final step, but we believe quality should be built into every stage — not a last-minute scramble.

We believe you should be able to deliver software that users love, without sacrificing your timeline or team morale.

We’ll help you:
