Practical AI Evals in Production
How to create evaluation loops that improve reliability without slowing product iteration.

Shipping an LLM feature without evals is a short path to trust erosion.
I structure evals in three layers:
- Pre-merge checks for prompts and tool wiring.
- Canary slice evals on real traffic samples.
- Weekly drift audits to spot quality decay.
The key is treating evals as product instrumentation rather than a one-time benchmark exercise.
