Silverback requires
Mac OS X (10.4-10.6)

Usability testing is last on everybody’s list of priorities. It’s time-consuming, can require specialist equipment, and is expensive to outsource. Not any more.
Silverback makes it easy, quick and cheap for everyone to perform guerrilla usability tests with no setup and no expense, using hardware already in your Mac.

Silverback runs on Mac OSX Leopard, Snow Leopard and Lion with a built-in iSight or some alternative. It does not run on 10.4 and lower.
The software is free for 30 days and only US $69.95 to register from then on.
Clearleft is donating 10% of all profits from Silverback to saving the gorillas.
