It kinda looks like a testing tool, but I don't get what this actually is about. A 1-sentence description of why I need this tool, rather than a list of features, would be much more helpful.


Yeah, we know our front page is lousy right now; we've got a redesign and a much clearer explanation in the works.

You need our service to make sure your web apps work in all the popular browsers.

We've got a bunch of web browsers in the cloud which you can remote-control via and API, to make sure the features of your site work cross-browser. We use a popular open source browser automation tool called Selenium, which my cofounder Jason Huggins created.

I'm curious whether the above description makes sense, or still leaves you scratching your head!


Hey, did Jason leave Chicago to help get Sauce Labs out of beta?


Through the power of the internet, I can work on Sauce Labs and Selenium from Chicago. :-)


That internet sure is cool :)


Agreed - reading through the landing page and the overview page didn't help me - I'm still unsure what this service is all about...


+1. I had to go to SeleniumHQ's site to get what saucelabs does.
