The service

Our approach to
Agent Evals & Monitoring

An agent you cannot measure is an agent you cannot trust. We build test suites based on real failure cases, guardrails on inputs and outputs, checks for personal information and jailbreak attempts, full request tracing and dashboards for cost, speed and quality. Regression checks stop a prompt edit from quietly breaking behaviour, and personal data handling is designed with PIPEDA in mind.

Common blockers

Where this kind of work usually gets stuck

Problems that show up again and again when we first look at an account. Our plan is built to deal with each one.

No visibility into what the AI is doing

An unmonitored agent is a black box. We add testing and observability so you know it is working.

Quality slipping without notice

Model updates and changing data can quietly make an agent worse. We spot regressions early.

No agreed standard for “good”

Without evaluation you cannot measure progress. We define quality through real tasks.

Risky answers nobody catches

Off-topic or harmful replies slip through without checks. We add safety monitoring.

Agent Evals & Monitoring working method

How we keep the work accountable

Before work starts, we agree on the number that matters most to you. Each sprint is planned against it. You get a short recorded update every week and a dashboard you can open any time, and the senior lead joins every call.

  • A senior lead runs your account from day one
  • A recorded walkthrough each week and a shared reporting dashboard
  • We work inside the tools and CMS your team already uses
  • Target ranges written into the agreement before we begin

Our Process

Four stages of Agent Evals & Monitoring

The same order every time: find the constraint, plan, deliver, then review. Here is what each stage involves.

01

Write down what good looks like

Task-based test suites turn "is the agent doing well" into scores you can track.

02

Spot regressions early

Production monitoring flags drops in quality before customers notice them.

03

Check safety constantly

Ongoing checks catch answers that are unsafe or outside what the agent should handle.

04

Compare each release

Every new version is scored against the last, so improvements are measured.

01Turn “seems fine” into a score
Define and measure quality

Turn “seems fine” into a score

Most teams cannot say how good their AI agent is. We build evaluation sets from real tasks, agree on what a correct and useful answer looks like and score the agent against them. Each new version is compared with the last, so improvements and setbacks are visible. Measured quality is the base for every dependable AI system.

  • Evaluation sets built from real tasks
  • Agreed quality criteria and scores
  • Comparison between versions
  • Quality you can track and improve
02Find problems before customers do
Catch drift & regressions

Find problems before customers do

Agents can get worse quietly as models, data and usage change, and without monitoring the first warning is an annoyed customer. We track quality, cost and behaviour in production and alert your team when something shifts. Ongoing monitoring keeps a live agent reliable.

  • Quality and behaviour tracking in production
  • Drift and regression alerts
  • Cost and performance dashboards
  • Warnings before users are affected
03Watch continuously for unsafe output
Safety & guardrail checks

Watch continuously for unsafe output

A live agent can produce harmful, off-topic or non-compliant replies. We set up checks that watch for policy breaches, unsafe content and failures on unusual inputs, log incidents and route them for review. Logs are designed with your privacy obligations in mind, so monitoring does not create a new store of personal data. This is what lets you keep an agent in production responsibly.

  • Continuous safety and policy checks
  • Detection of guardrail and edge-case failures
  • Incident logging and review
  • Privacy-aware logging

FAQs

Before you sign: common questions

Straight answers on scope, timing and how we report.

Why do AI agents need evaluation and monitoring?
Without them you cannot tell whether the agent is getting better or worse. Evaluation defines and measures quality, and monitoring catches regressions, cost spikes and unsafe behaviour in production.
What are evals?
Sets of real tasks with agreed criteria for a good answer. Running the agent through them gives a score you can compare across versions.
How do you detect quality drift?
By tracking quality, cost and behaviour in production and alerting when results move outside expected ranges.
Can you add this to agents we already run?
Yes. We can wrap evaluation and monitoring around existing agents and AI features, whoever built them.
