Sbir Phase Ii: Artificial Intelligence Powered Software Testing -the Broader/commercial Impact of the Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) Phase Ii Project Reduce the Cost and Speed of Software Quality Assurance (SQA) End-to-end Testing by Enabling Artificial Intelligence (AI) to Automate Tests Without the Need for Coding or Highly Experienced Coders. as Innovative High-growth Software as a Service (SAAS) Companies Go to Market Faster With More Confidence and Fewer Software Defects, Industries Will Benefit Economically by Saving Time and Money. This Sbir Phase Ii Project Will Build an Ai Solution Which, Although Used by Less Experienced Software Engineers, Will Allow Software Companies to Identify Software Defects With Minimal User Interactions. the Real-time and Guided Process Gathers Information Directly From the Web Browsers, Handling Traditional and Unresolved Problems With Test Automation Such as Software Test Design, Automation, Coverage, and Maintenance. the Ai Solution Will Make Sqa Highly Efficient by Performing Two Major Tasks: Simulating Real-time Users' Exploration of Web Applications and Identifying Unexpected Behaviors. the Architecture Enables Ai Agents to Self-learn and Interact With the Application, Improving on Each Observation. the Ai Learning Cycle Implements Thorough Communication Within the System as It Communicates Requests to Apply Specific Actions Based on Its Own Knowledge Analyzing the Resulting Effect. Phase I Research Proved That the Architecture Can Be Upgraded to a Commercial Version, Providing Value to Customers Looking to Improve Software Quality in Their Products and Go to Market Faster. the Anticipated Technical Results in Phase Ii Will Enhance the Categorization of Unexpected Software Behaviors, Optimize the Data Analysis Time, and Reduce the Learning Cycle. This Award Reflects NSF'S Statutory Mission and Has Been Deemed Worthy of Support Through Evaluation Using the Foundation's Intellectual Merit and Broader Impacts Review Criteria.

Everything here is this single award's whole record — signed, amended, paid — not a fiscal-year slice. The by-year charts elsewhere split an award across the years it was committed; this page keeps it whole.
Committed is what the government has legally promised on this award so far. Contracts can also carry a ceiling — the maximum if every option is exercised. Unspent ceiling is headroom, not money owed.
The cash actually disbursed against this award. The gap from committed is the disbursement pipeline: promised, not yet cashed.
Each transaction is a signing event — an action that created or changed the award, dated the day it was signed — not a payment. Negative amounts are real: money de-committed at closeout or renegotiation.
One bar, the award’s whole arithmetic: paid out, then committed, not yet paid, then unspent ceiling.
