Abstract

A computer-implemented method for comparing multiple client application variations, including, providing a copy of a client application to each of a plurality of client devices, wherein each copy of the client application comprises multiple application variations, receiving demographic information from one or more of the plurality of client devices and providing a list of available experiments to each of the plurality of client devices based on the demographic information, wherein each of the available experiments corresponds with one or more application variations. In certain implementations, the method further includes steps for receiving usage information for each copy of the client application associated with each of the plurality of client devices and comparing two or more application variations of the client application based on the usage information. Systems and computer-readable media are also provided.
