AI evaluation + governance

Know what an AI system can do before asking people to depend on it.

Evaluation turns broad claims into testable requirements, visible failure modes, release criteria, and an operating plan for monitoring and human review.

Evaluation surface

Test the system that users experience.

Capability

Correctness, relevance, calibration, retrieval, citation support, robustness, latency, and cost where material.

Failure and risk

Harmful outputs, unsupported claims, data exposure, bias, edge cases, misuse, and escalation paths.

Operations

Release criteria, human review, monitoring, change control, incident handling, and ownership.

Governance should be operational

Policies matter when they change a decision.

Useful governance assigns owners, defines evidence, establishes approval and escalation, records changes, and makes monitoring actionable.

Before releaseRequirements, data, tests, thresholds, approvals
After releaseMonitoring, feedback, incidents, changes, retirement

Appropriate scope

Evaluation does not equal certification.

This service should not be represented as legal advice, regulatory certification, or a guarantee that a system is safe. Claims must match the actual review, evidence, and professional boundaries.

Planning a release or reviewing a system?

Make the acceptance decision explicit.
