Quality Assurance
Embedded
Close the gap between development and testing. Our Embedded QA service places our experts directly inside your studio, sitting shoulder-to-shoulder with your developers.
This barrier-free collaboration allows for real-time bug reporting and instant feedback loops, fostering a culture of quality that accelerates your timeline and elevates your final product.
Face-to-Face
Break down the barriers of remote communication. By embedding our QA experts directly into your studio, we foster immediate, high-fidelity collaboration. Issues can be demonstrated, discussed, and resolved in real-time at a developer's desk, eliminating the latency of email chains and ticket tracking for complex, hard-to-reproduce bugs.
Your Schedule
Our embedded testers don't just work for you; they work on your clock. They attend your morning stand-ups, participate in sprint planning, and adhere to your internal milestones. This synchronisation ensures that QA is never a bottleneck but a continuous, integrated part of your daily development rhythm.
Your Standards
We adapt to your culture, not the other way around. Our embedded staff adopt your specific methodologies, coding standards, and bug reporting protocols from day one. Whether you use Agile, Waterfall, or a bespoke hybrid, our team becomes a seamless extension of your workforce, maintaining the same high standards of quality and discipline you expect from your own employees.
Your Security
Keep your most sensitive assets within your own four walls. Embedded QA allows for the testing of highly confidential IP without it ever leaving your secure environment. Our staff work on your hardware, on your network, and under your security protocols, providing the highest possible level of data protection and peace of mind.
Seamless Integration, Faster Iteration
Quality flows faster when barriers are removed. We bring a collaborative discipline directly into your studio, integrating our experts with your development team. This immediate, face-to-face feedback loop elevates your project by turning QA into a daily conversation rather than a distant phase, accelerating iteration and fostering a culture of excellence from the inside out.

Case Studies
Read more on some of the exciting projects we've supported, and find out how our unique flexible approach can solve unique challenges.
Fireside Feelings
For Indie titles, budgets are often small and bang for buck is king, so how did Universally Speaking partner with The CoLab to bring AAA quality on an Indie budget for their debut title, Fireside Feelings?
Remastering a AAA Classic
When the title is a remake of a much acclaimed AAA classic, how do you do justice to the source material moving into new languages? Easy, you call US.
Fluent in Horror
Oooh, that was creepy. But is it creepy in Swedish? How about Japanese? When the title is a narrative horror game, getting the tone wrong breaks immersion and can turn a thriller into a farce.
