About
Lost Pixel is an open-source visual regression testing platform for GitHub-based workflows. It compares screenshots from Storybook, Next.js, Playwright, and page-mode runs to detect UI changes before they reach users.
The service includes screenshot masking, browser-side code execution before capture, per-screenshot thresholds, multiple browsers, multiple breakpoints, parallel execution, and an approval flow for reviewing visual diffs. The hosted plan is centered on GitHub integration and supports up to 7,000 screenshots per month on the free plan, with unlimited collaborators and monorepo support.

Free Tier Value
This free tier includes 7,000 screenshots per month, which is 17.5% of the Startup plan’s 40,000-screenshot allowance. Since Startup costs $100/month, that makes the free tier worth about $17.50/month on quota alone, and the included unlimited collaborators plus core workflow features push the practical value higher, to about $42/month. No credit card is required, and the offer is a capped monthly free tier rather than an uncapped forever plan.
