A/B Test Significance Calculator

Is your A/B test result real, or just noise?

Enter your A/B test results to see if the difference is statistically significant or just noise. We use a two-proportion z-test — the same math behind most A/B testing tools — and translate the output into plain English.

Variant A (Control)

234 / 4,500 = 5.20%

Variant B (Treatment)

285 / 4,500 = 6.33%

Use two-tailed unless you decided in advance that you only care about B beating A.

Significance testing assumes a fixed sample size set in advance. If you've been peeking at results and stopped when you saw significance, your real false-positive rate is higher than the stated alpha. Sequential testing or a bandit avoids this trap.

Skip the math. Let a bandit run your tests for you.
