Our verdict on PlayProbe

PlayProbe is a browser-based playtesting platform for indie game developers. Studios create tests with pre- and post-session surveys, share links to existing builds, and review aggregated responses in a results dashboard. Builds can remain on itch.io, Steam Playtest, or another URL rather than being hosted by PlayProbe. Supported builds include Windows, macOS, Linux, Android, and WebGL, making it suitable for teams testing across multiple platforms.

The pricing structure is straightforward. The Free plan costs $0 per month and includes pre- and post-session surveys, a results dashboard, unlisted tests, and a public tester pool. The Pro plan costs $19 USD per month and adds unlimited games and tests, full-screen recording, public tester pool access, a Unity SDK, CSV export, and removal of PlayProbe branding. Pro also supports Unity events, FPS tracking, crash capture, and mid-game surveys. Screen recordings are retained for 30 days.

PlayProbe fits teams that already distribute builds through links and want a focused mix of survey feedback, session recording, and game telemetry. Its Unity SDK is particularly relevant for developers who need event, FPS, crash, and survey data inside Unity projects. Integrations include Unity, itch.io, and Steam Playtest. Teams that need PlayProbe to host builds, more advanced targeting controls, or a broader integration set should consider another platform. For indie developers seeking a free starting point or a $19 monthly Pro tier, PlayProbe offers a practical scope without requiring a larger playtesting system.

I've used PlayProbe myself and this is my honest opinion — nobody paid or asked me to write it.
