What Kameleoon is
Kameleoon launched in 2012 and has offices in Paris, New York, London, Toronto and Offenburg, Germany. It says more than 1,000 brands run tests with it, and it names Samsung, Toyota, Lidl, Best Western and Canada Goose among its customers. The platform covers web experimentation, feature management, mobile app testing, AI personalization, and product recommendations and search.
Prompt-Based Experimentation
PBX is now the center of the product. You describe the change you want in plain language, and AI generates the variation and can launch the experiment, without code or a WYSIWYG editor. You start in a Chrome extension, so you can build before installing any script on your site. A Figma integration lets you build from design mockups.
Kameleoon now describes PBX 2.0 as five agents: Ideate, Build, Configure, Analyze and Ship. PBX Ideate, announced in May 2026, scans a page, suggests test ideas and turns them into prompts. Kameleoon says it ranks ideas using insights from more than 20,000 past experiments.
Each prompt uses one credit, and Kameleoon says a typical experiment takes about 3. Starter plans come with 30, 100 or 200 credits a month, and unused credits don't roll over.
If you'd rather build by hand, Kameleoon still has its graphic editor for no-code variations, and a JavaScript and CSS code editor on Enterprise.
Stats
Reporting supports frequentist and Bayesian methods, sequential testing, multiple testing correction, CUPED, outlier handling and ratio metrics such as revenue per add to cart. Five automated health checks cover tracking, conversions and sample ratio mismatch, among others. AI reporting points out opportunities in tests that didn't reach a result.
Revenue tracking
Revenue goals take setup. You send the order value with a JavaScript API call, through a Google Tag Manager command queue, or with the SDKs' conversion tracking. On Shopify Plus, the integration tracks e-commerce events including transactions. Checkout conversions come through a custom pixel you add, and checkout pages themselves can't be tested.
Server-side, apps and compliance
Feature management and rollout, feature experimentation, mobile app testing and personalization are Enterprise capabilities, as are contextual and multi-armed bandits. Data warehouse connections to Snowflake, BigQuery, Redshift and Databricks are premium add-ons. Security options include SSO, HIPAA compliance, EU or US data residency, and self-hosting the script.
Who it suits
Kameleoon suits marketing teams that want AI to take over building variants, and larger companies that need web, feature and app testing on one platform with strict compliance. Small teams should check the Starter limits first. It allows 10 experiments and 50,000 tracked users a month in one project, and experiments stop when the traffic quota runs out.
Pros and cons
What Kameleoon does well
- A published starting price ($495 a month) and a 30-day free trial with no credit card.
- PBX builds variants from plain-language prompts, and PBX Ideate scans a page and suggests ranked test ideas.
- Sequential testing, multiple testing correction, SRM detection and holdouts are included in Starter.
- Frequentist and Bayesian methods, CUPED, outlier handling and ratio metrics such as revenue per add to cart.
- Web, server-side, feature flag and mobile app testing on one platform, with EU or US data residency, SSO and HIPAA compliance.
- You can start building in a Chrome extension before installing any script on your site.
Where it falls short
- Starter is capped at 10 experiments and 50,000 tracked users a month, and experiments stop when you hit the traffic quota.
- Starter covers one project. Feature flags, mobile app testing, personalization and the code editor sit in Enterprise.
- AI credits are limited each month and unused credits don't roll over.
- Revenue goals need setup, through a JavaScript API call, a tag manager or the Shopify Plus integration.
- Trial tests and data aren't saved if you don't upgrade.
Outtest vs Kameleoon
Kameleoon and Outtest both put AI at the center of testing, but they split the work differently. Kameleoon's PBX lets you describe a change and have AI build the variant, and PBX Ideate suggests what to test. Your team still picks the ideas, sets goals and reads the stats. PBX Starter starts from $495 a month for 10 experiments and 50,000 visitors, and Enterprise adds feature flags, mobile app tests and personalization.
Outtest is a new AI split tester for small teams without a CRO specialist or developer time. Its agents find the funnel leak, build the version, run it and call the winner, and every test is judged on revenue per visitor read from your payment tool. It costs $29 to $499 a month by tests per month. Outtest has no track record yet and doesn't list feature flags or mobile app testing.

Pick Kameleoon if
- You want AI to build variants, but you want your team to choose ideas and control goals and targeting.
- You need feature flags, server-side tests or mobile app tests alongside web tests.
- You need HIPAA compliance, EU or US data residency, or a self-hosted script.
- You have the traffic and budget for $495 a month or an enterprise contract.
Pick Outtest if
- You want the whole loop handled, including deciding what to test and calling the winner.
- You want revenue per visitor from your payment tool out of the box, not a revenue goal you wire up.
- Your budget is $29 to $99 a month. Outtest Pro runs 30 tests a month for $99, against Starter's 10 from $495.
- You want to test pricing, trial length and cancel flows.
The verdict. Kameleoon fits teams that want AI-built variants inside a full experimentation platform, with enterprise options for features, apps and compliance. Outtest fits small teams that want AI to run revenue-judged tests end to end at a lower price. Kameleoon has been around since 2012; Outtest is new.
