Congrats! How has Anthropic's latest release supporting computer use affected your planning/thinking around this?

PS:If you had this for desktop we'd immediately become a customer.

Thank you! Sonnet 3.5 is indeed a powerful model, and we're actually using it. However, even with the latest version, there are still some limitations affecting our specific use case. For instance, the model struggles to accurately recognize semi-overlaid areas, such as popups that block interactions, and it has trouble consistently detecting when UI elements are in a disabled state.

To address these issues, we enhance the models with our own custom logic and specialized models, which helps us achieve more reliable results.

Looking forward, we expect our QA Studio to become even more powerful as we integrate tools like test management, reporting, and infrastructure, especially as models improve. We're excited about the possibilities ahead!

Hi cschiller, I think we can help you with those issues at Waldo. I guess you are using Appium under the hood to get the UI hierarchy. At Waldo we developed a competing (proprietary) engine that solves a lot of Appium problems.

We provide the most accurate view hierarchy for mobile apps (including React Native and Flutter apps), and we do it under 500ms for each view.

I would love to get in touch: at e.de-lansalut [at] tricentis.com

Here is an example of what we are able to do: https://share.waldo.com/7a45b5bd364edbf17c578070ce8bde220240...
