Human-validated training data and evaluation services for frontier AI models
Chain-of-thought reasoning traces, SME-level RLHF, supervised fine-tuning demonstrations and adversarial red teaming for the most capable models.
Golden trajectories, RL environment design, failure-mode taxonomies and software-engineering-driven deep evaluation for autonomous agents.
Multilingual ASR and conversational speech data, expressive TTS annotation, vision-language model training data, video action labelling and voice-agent evaluation.
LiDAR point-cloud labeling, multi-camera sensor fusion, robot demonstration trajectories, world-model rollouts and embodied interaction logs.
Open-source, OpenTelemetry-native observability and harness engineering for AI agents
Capture OpenTelemetry traces and metrics for every LLM call, tool invocation, retrieval, and agent step, and filter them by user, session, cost, latency, or custom metadata.
Score production traffic or experiments with LLM-as-a-judge, heuristic checks, or human review so you can measure accuracy, relevance, and safety over time.
Manage and version prompts in Prompt Hub, then deploy, roll back, and update prompts without shipping new application code.
Store and rotate OpenAI, Anthropic, and other LLM API keys outside your codebase with an encrypted, rotating secrets vault.
