Build a simple eval set from real user workflows

Create test cases from user journeys, edge cases, common failures, and expected outputs before you ship.

Connect evals to product analytics

Why this topic matters

AI teams are shipping features where the output is probabilistic. A dashboard can show adoption, retention, and drop-off, but it cannot tell you whether the model gave a good answer, hallucinated, or created user risk. Evals help you test quality before launch. Analytics helps you understand behavior after launch. Together, they create the feedback loop that tell you what to improve next.
