Introduction
Diffy positions itself as visual regression testing for agencies managing complex websites, saying it handles the complexity that breaks other tools and can be set up in about 20 minutes (vendor claims).
Teams use Diffy to screenshot many pages across breakpoints and compare environments, such as staging against production, or before and after a deployment or CMS update. The homepage highlights AI-generated diff summaries that group changes by type (layout, content, style) and prioritise them by impact, and a skills plugin that lets Claude screenshot a local development environment and compare it before and after a change.
There is a free plan and paid plans.
In the quality loop it supports release checks for content-heavy sites.
Features
- Site-wide screenshots: Many pages and breakpoints.
- Environment comparison: Staging versus production.
