The native desktop GUI companion to the CLI — the same Ask AI agent and local test data, in a graphical workspace instead of a terminal.

TestRelic Studio is a native desktop app that pairs with the CLI — the same Ask AI agent and local test data, in a graphical workspace instead of a terminal. It's built on the CLI itself: its chat pane runs tr as a persistent local session, so it honors the same Modes & engines and reuses your CLI login.

Studio needs a Pro plan or above

Studio is the one product the CLI's own plan doesn't cover: it needs a cloud subscription on Pro or above, in either the active or an unexpired trial state. An active 14-day trial unlocks Studio whatever tier it sits on — but when the trial ends, Growth keeps the CLI and loses Studio. See Plans & Billing.

Clicked 'Place order'

A hand-recreated slice of the real app — click through the workspace tabs (Live Browser, Tests, Runs, Pipelines, Traces) shown here alongside chat. See Workspace for the full tour, including the session sidebar and the Routines & Dispatch multi-session workbench this compact view leaves out.

Launch it

testrelic studio                # open Studio on the current directory
testrelic studio --path ./repo  # open Studio on a specific repo

Or from the CLI's interactive UI:

❯ /studio

If nothing is installed yet, the first launch fetches and installs Studio for you — see Installation. The install is automatic; the entitlement is not, so sort the plan out first.

Terminal~/code/shop-e2e

$ testrelic studio

# open Studio on the current directory

or, from the CLI's interactive UI

❯ /studio

studio open this repo in the TestRelic Studio desktop app (installs it if needed)

Opening TestRelic Studio (installed app) on this repo…

Opens automatically after a local /init

Running testrelic init (or /init) in Local mode sets up your project, runs the suite once, and then opens Studio on the repo automatically — no extra step needed.

Zero-friction start

No repo yet? Once Studio is entitled, it doesn't make you pick or create one first — it stands up a ready-to-use workspace pointed at a public demo app so you land straight in chat. The demo workspace is a shortcut past repo setup, not past the Pro requirement above.

No folder picker — chat opens on a ready-made workspace Studio creates once and reuses on every launch.

Test demo.playwright.dev/todomvc? I'll use it for the tests I write from now on.

Where to go next

Installation

Get Studio installed and see the --path / --stop command reference.

Planner

Plan what a release promises, build tests from it, run them, prove it, and share the result.

Live Browser

Watch an AI agent drive a real, visible browser — the same one its Playwright MCP controls.

Live Device

One-click Android onboarding — no JDK, no Android Studio — then watch a live, screen-mirrored emulator.

Evals

DeepEval metrics, category health, and pass-rate trends, read straight off your repo's run JSON.

Augur

Embedded evidence reports, one-click demo runs, and in-pane reference approval for text-to-image evals.

Workspace

Explorer, Command Center, a multi-session workbench (Routines & Dispatch), Test Paths, run visualization, issue detection, and fix & re-run.

Pipelines

Connect CI, view runs and logs, trigger or cancel a run, and publish a starter workflow.

Relationship to the CLI

Studio is a GUI shell around the same tr CLI: chat runs tr -p --input-format stream-json --output-format stream-json as a persistent session, so it shares your login and the same Modes & engines as the terminal. Fix flows can also drive your locally installed claude CLI directly, scoped to the repo.

same login as the terminal

tr -p --input-format stream-json --output-format stream-json

Chat runs as one persistent session behind this pane — the same modes and engines the terminal uses, not a separate copy.
