| Vera | Momentic | |
|---|---|---|
| Price published? | Yes — every plan and limit on /pricing | Yes. Free at $0, Pay-as-you-go at $125 / month plus usage, Enterprise custom — with the whole credit-rate table printed alongside. [2026-09-05] |
| Entry price | $19 / user / month (Pro). Free plan, $0 forever | $125 / month (Pay-as-you-go), including 10,000 credits; extra credits are $0.01875 each. The Free plan is $0 with 2,000 credits and a hard stop. [2026-09-05] |
| What you pay for | Seats. No metered runs, no resold tokens | Metered credits, not seats: 1 credit per test step (2 if AI-generated), 1 credit per minute of hosted browser, 100 credits to classify a failed run and 500 to triage one. [2026-09-05] |
| AI on your own key | Yes, on every plan including Free | No. Momentic calls its own accounts at Anthropic, OpenAI, Google Vertex, AWS Bedrock, Azure and others, and bills that usage back to you as credits. [2026-09-05] |
| Export to runnable code | Playwright, WebdriverIO, Selenium (Python), TestCafe | "Momentic ships no exporter." Tests are YAML in your own repository and the format is published; Enterprise customers can ask for a one-time eject to open-source Playwright at contract termination. [2026-09-05] |
| Runs against localhost | Yes — the local agent, no tunnel | Yes, with no tunnel. The CLI runs the browser on your machine and can boot your dev server first: momentic run --start "pnpm dev" --wait-on http-get://localhost:3000. [2026-09-05] |
| Arabic / RTL authoring | Yes — app and authoring, English and Arabic | Not documented. Arabic, right-to-left and localisation appear nowhere in Momentic's full documentation text. [2026-09-05] |
| What they do better | They are older, and several have a SOC 2 report and a reference list Vera does not have yet. | SOC 2 Type 2 on every plan, including Free, plus hosted iOS simulators and Android emulators and disposable phone numbers for OTP flows. Vera has none of those. [2026-09-05] |
The difference that is not a row
A rule covered by a test that cannot fail looks finished, and isn’t. Vera re-runs every generated test with its expectations falsified — a data table has its pass/reject column flipped, any other test has one assertion’s expected value made false — and every one of those negative controls must fail. A test that passes anyway has assertions that are not connected to your app at all: Vera records it as insensitive and refuses it as coverage, ranked below uncovered, because an uncovered rule at least looks like work to do.
