This continuous evaluation forms a flywheel that prevents silent failures, catches safety gaps, and accelerates the confident launch of trusted, high-value AI solutions.

The Guide Covers:

  • Scope Evaluation: Tailor the evaluation program based on system risk and complexity.
  • Define Metrics: Identify, track, and maintain key performance metrics specific to your use case.
  • Blend Evaluation: Combine efficient human-in-the-loop review with LLM judges and programmatic checks.
  • Build LLM Judges: Develop automated evaluators aligned with domain expertise and use-case specifics.
  • Process Integration: Implement a continuous evaluation workflow that spans from prototype through production.
