Element34

AI-native test automation. Private by design.

Selenium Box (SBOX) — the enterprise test automation platform that runs on your infrastructure: dedicated, VPC, or managed private cloud. AI authoring, healing, and RCA run on your model. Test data never leaves your network.

Browser coverage Industry first

Test inside Island, the private browser Chrome can’t reach.

Regulated enterprises are replacing Chrome with Island as their org-wide browser. Apps that ship to those users must be tested inside Island, which is token-authenticated and does not expose Selenium by default.

Element34 is the only test platform that runs Selenium and Playwright inside Island.

The Enterprise Browser
Grid capabilities

Enterprise grid features, not just an AI layer.

Element34 has been the private Selenium and Playwright grid for regulated teams for over a decade. The AI is new. The infrastructure is battle-tested.

01 · Domain

Scale & speed

Inside-the-network parallelism, predictable economics.

  • Massively parallel executionThousands of parallel sessions on a grid you control, no queueing, no flake from latency.
  • 5-10x faster than cloudNear-zero round-trip overhead, tests run inside your network.
  • Predictable license modelFixed license fee, independent of test volume. Scale without scaling the bill.

Coverage & tooling

Every browser, every device, every framework.

  • Cross-browser coverageChrome, Firefox, Firefox ESR, Edge, Safari, plus iOS and Android on one private grid.
  • Tool agnosticStandard Selenium, Appium and Playwright protocols. Bring the tools your teams already use.
  • Live view & breakpointsWatch runs live, drop breakpoints, take over interactively to debug.

Observability

Full-fidelity capture, integrated with your stack.

  • Video, screenshots & DOM snapshotsTransparent post-run analysis with full-run capture on every session.
  • Monitoring & reportsAdvanced system usage reports and integrations with your monitoring stack.
  • Local & manual testingTest apps on developer machines without tunnels. Manual access when you need it.

Enterprise & governance

Fits your identity, network and compliance posture.

  • Projects, teams & RBACOrganize by project with role-based rights, real-time usage and QOS controls.
  • Enterprise SSOKerberos, SPNEGO, client certificates, PKI, LDAP and Atlassian Crowd, fits the IdPs you run.
  • Enterprise proxy supportCentralized proxy config so traffic stays inside your network, even from runners.
Enterprise trust

Built for the controls regulated industries actually require.

Element34 does not claim certifications it does not hold. SBOX claims architectural capabilities that survive a serious due-diligence review. Below are the six controls that matter most to the regulated enterprises we serve.

Zero test data egress

Application data, session recordings, and AI prompts stay inside the customer perimeter across all deployment modes.

Single-tenant infrastructure

No shared compute, no shared storage, no multi-tenant database. Ever.

Network isolation

Runs without VPN tunnels or external connectivity back to vendor infrastructure.

Customer-controlled AI providers

Your model subscription. Your prompts. Your audit trail.

Full audit logging

Session-level and user-level logs, exportable to your SIEM.

GDPR-aligned architecture

Data residency, role-based access, encryption at rest and in transit.

The category split

Two ways to run enterprise testing. Built for different priorities.

The market for enterprise test automation has split into two operating models. Most platforms run testing in their cloud, with private and self-hosted tiers offered as enterprise add-ons. Element34 is built private-first. Here is how the two compare on the dimensions that matter for regulated enterprises.

Dimension Public-cloud-first platforms Element34 private-first WINS
Default operating model Multi-tenant public cloud Single-tenant private grid
Where your test data lives Vendor cloud by default Your environment by default
AI infrastructure Vendor cloud and vendor AI Your environment and your AI provider
Cost model Metered SaaS, usage-based Annual license, predictable

FAQ

Frequently asked questions about SBOX.

Common questions from enterprise security, procurement, and engineering teams.

What is Element34 SBOX?
SBOX is an AI-native enterprise test automation platform that runs inside your infrastructure. It supports Selenium, Playwright, and other testing frameworks. AI capabilities including Auto Heal, Debug Analyzer, and Pulse Reports run on your AI provider, with all test data staying inside your perimeter.
How is SBOX different from BrowserStack and Sauce Labs?
BrowserStack and Sauce Labs are mature platforms that offer many of the same testing capabilities, including private and self-hosted tiers for enterprise customers. The difference is operating model. They are built public-cloud first with private options layered on. Element34 SBOX is built private-first: every deployment is single-tenant by default, your AI provider is the one you already trust, and test data and prompts stay inside your perimeter without configuration. For regulated buyers who start the conversation at zero data egress, that default matters.
Where does SBOX deploy?
SBOX deploys in three models: Private Cloud on your dedicated infrastructure, Virtual Private Cloud inside your AWS, Azure, or GCP account, or as a Managed Private Cloud operated by Element34. The same product runs across all three deployment models.
Does SBOX support air-gapped environments?
Yes. The Private Cloud self-hosted deployment supports air-gapped operation. After initial Docker image pull, SBOX requires no external connectivity, no vendor telemetry, and no callback to Element34 infrastructure.
How does SBOX handle AI without exposing data?
SBOX is bring-your-own-LLM. The platform connects to your existing OpenAI, Anthropic, Azure OpenAI subscription, or a self-hosted model running in your environment. Prompts and responses move between SBOX and your AI provider only. Element34 never sees your test data or your prompts.
What testing frameworks does SBOX support?
SBOX supports Selenium, Playwright, and Appium. Tests run in parallel across Chrome, Edge, Firefox, Firefox ESR, Safari, plus iOS and Android. The platform integrates natively with Jenkins, GitLab CI, GitHub Actions, and Azure DevOps.
Is SBOX SOC 2 or ISO 27001 certified?
Element34 does not currently hold SOC 2 or ISO 27001 certifications. The SBOX architecture is designed to meet the controls regulated enterprises require: zero data egress, single-tenant infrastructure, network isolation, customer-controlled AI, full audit logging, and GDPR-aligned data residency. Customers in financial services, government, and healthcare have completed enterprise security reviews with the SBOX architecture.
How does SBOX pricing work?
SBOX uses annual licensing, not metered SaaS pricing. Costs are predictable across the contract term. Pricing is structured around three packages (SBOX Core, SBOX AI, SBOX Managed) and four drivers: parallel execution capacity, AI consumption, deployment model, and support tier. Talk to sales for a scoped quote.
Can SBOX replace our DIY Selenium grid?
Yes. SBOX is designed as a drop-in upgrade from DIY Selenium grids. It preserves Selenium framework compatibility, eliminates the maintenance burden of self-managed grid infrastructure, and adds AI capabilities including Auto Heal, Debug Analyzer, and Pulse Reports.
