I founded a startup called PlaytestCloud a while back to tackle this problem for mobile games. We have quite a few customers who build really basic prototypes and use our product to test that with outside players from early on. (It‘s impor

I'd love to get an idea of the pricing before I sign up for a trial. I don't want to spend time trying out a product that will end up costing more than I'm willing to pay for it.
