I checked the Katalon true Information center but it shows all the tasks which we are currenly doing via Katalon. Can you help me with more of True Platform’s features?
Katalon True Platform is Katalon’s unified quality engineering platform that brings planning, authoring, execution, reporting, and production insights into one connected workflow. For cross-browser testing, the key piece is TestCloud, which provides cloud-hosted execution across browsers, operating systems, and real mobile devices with little or no local setup.
What True Platform does
True Platform is designed to reduce tool sprawl and give QA teams one place to manage the test lifecycle, from requirement analysis to execution and analytics. It includes Katalon Studio for test creation, Test Management for tracking tests, Reporting and Analytics for visibility, Test Execution Cloud for scaled execution, and Production Insights for real-user-driven coverage improvements.
How TestCloud helps
TestCloud is the execution layer for cross-browser and device testing. It lets you run automated tests on common desktop browsers like Chrome, Firefox, Edge, and Safari, and also supports real mobile device testing in cloud-hosted environments. The main benefit is that you do not need to maintain your own browser labs or device infrastructure
In TestOps
TestCloud integrates with TestOps so you can create and run cloud test environments directly from the platform and sync results back into your reporting workflow. That means teams can trigger executions, monitor results, and keep execution data tied to test management and analytics in one place
Useful features
-
Instant, zero-setup execution in secure cloud environments.katalon
-
Parallel tests across multiple browsers and OS combinations.
-
Live execution monitoring.katalon
-
Real mobile device testing, not only emulators.
-
Extra mobile scenarios such as biometric, location, network, and camera simulation
-
Support for public and private sites, including internal applications behind firewalls.katalon
Plain-English summary
If you are already using Katalon for test creation and management, True Platform connects that work to scalable execution and better visibility. For cross-browser testing specifically, TestCloud is what gives you cloud-based browser/device coverage without local maintenance.. More info in the below link

your query resolved?
I understand you completely. below is what it is actually is
The confusion around Katalon’s ecosystem is incredibly common because they split their product into three distinct layers: test creation, automated execution, and cloud management.
Here is the straightforward breakdown of what each piece actually does:
-
Katalon Studio: This is the desktop application (IDE). It is the software you download to your computer where testers actually write scripts, record browser actions, and run tests locally to see if they work.
-
Katalon Runtime Engine (KRE): This is the headless, command-line executor. It has no user interface. Its entire purpose is to allow your tests to be triggered by automated systems (like Jenkins, GitHub Actions, or Docker) without a human needing to click “Run” on a desktop.
-
Katalon True Platform: This is the web based cloud headquarters (combining what used to be called TestOps and TestCloud). It is the centralized management portal. You use this when you want to schedule tests to run on Katalon’s cloud machines instead of your own servers, track release readiness, view AI generated reports, and coordinate large QA teams.
When to Use What
Here are the scenarios mapped out following your exact structure:
Katalon Studio : Local testing small team , manual test authoring , record and playback , local execution on personal laptops , basic local HTML reports , you stop here nothing needed
Katalon Studio + KRE : Local testing , push to Repos , CICD pipelines , command line execution , headless browser testing , parallel execution on your own internal servers , you stop here, no em dashes
Katalon Studio + True Platform : Local testing , integrate repos in true platform , create release , map test cases to requirements , manage test suites , manage schedule , run on their infra (TestCloud) , view centralized analytics , AI root cause analysis , Jira integration and lot of options
Nice information 
We have Katalon Studio Licenses, is it possible to do trial testing using True Platform here?
Yes true platform has trial version as well
I am trying to log into True Platform, but I do not see any projects from Studio there, I am not able to do anything in the true platform dashboard
You have to create either a project in true platform and then you can create test cases there only.
Or if you want katalon studio suites there , by uploading to true platform
