Felan
Cloud platform for running persistent AI agents (developer, QA, SRE personas) across a team's whole software development lifecycle, with shared memory and full session visibility.

Description
Most AI coding assistants live inside one person's editor and forget everything the moment the session ends — which means a whole engineering team using AI agents ends up with dozens of agents that never learn from each other. Felan tries to fix that by running AI agents in the cloud instead, as background workers with different jobs (writing code, testing it, watching production) that share what they've learned across the whole team, not just one developer's machine. Felan runs cloud-based background agents with defined personas (Developer, QA, SRE, General Purpose), triggered by events or schedules rather than only manual prompts, and it keeps a persistent, team-wide knowledge base plus full session transcripts so any teammate can see exactly what an agent did and why. It connects to 17+ existing tools (GitHub, GitLab, Slack, Teams, Linear, Jira) and structures work through predefined SDLC stages — Capture, Groom, Plan, Implement, Review — with bring-your-own-API-key model portability rather than locking a team into one AI provider. Felan is the direct successor to Bugzy, a QA-test-generation tool that merged into it; existing Bugzy customers are now Felan customers.
💬 Our review
The short version: Felan is betting that AI agents are more useful as persistent, team-shared cloud workers than as one-off assistants inside a single developer's editor, and it's building the shared-memory and multi-persona layer to make that real.
The genuinely different idea here versus Claude Code, Cursor, or GitHub Copilot running locally is persistence and team visibility — an agent's context and learned knowledge staying available to the whole team (not resetting per session, per developer) is a real gap in today's AI coding tools, and full session transcripts address the legitimate worry of "what did the agent actually do while I wasn't watching." The honest caveat: this is an early-stage product (it absorbed Bugzy's QA-focused customer base rather than growing this platform from scratch) still in a waitlist/early-access posture with no public pricing, so a team evaluating it should expect rough edges and a smaller integration ecosystem than the established AI coding agents it's implicitly competing against. If your team's actual need is specifically automated QA test generation — what Bugzy used to do — evaluate TestSprite, QA Wolf or Checksum directly rather than assuming Felan still serves that narrower need as well as its predecessor did.

Full session visibility/transcripts for team-wide auditability
Bring-your-own-keys model portability, not locked to one AI provider
Cons

🔄 Alternatives to Felan
See all alternatives to Felan →❓ Frequently asked questions
- Is Felan the same as Bugzy?
- Felan is the successor — Bugzy, a QA-test-generation tool, merged into Felan, and Bugzy's site now redirects there. Felan has a broader scope than Bugzy's original QA-only focus.
- What makes Felan different from running Claude Code or Cursor locally?
- Felan runs agents as persistent cloud workers with shared, team-wide memory and full session visibility, rather than context that resets per developer session on a local machine.
- Which tools does it integrate with?
- 17+ integrations including GitHub, GitLab, Slack, Teams, Linear and Jira, structured around SDLC stages: Capture, Groom, Plan, Implement, Review.
- Is it worth the money compared to alternatives?
- Too early to say definitively — pricing isn't public and the product is in early access. If your specific need is automated QA test generation (what Bugzy did), evaluate TestSprite, QA Wolf or Checksum directly rather than assuming Felan covers that as well as its predecessor.
- Which tool should you pick for your case?
- Want team-wide persistent AI agents across the whole SDLC: Felan. Want a single developer's local AI coding assistant: Claude Code or Cursor. Specifically need automated QA test generation: TestSprite, QA Wolf or Checksum.
