AI does the heavy lifting, people stay in charge
Use AI to interpret permitted inputs, suggest structured mappings and generate candidate outputs for the stated task modules. Use deterministic code for arithmetic, schema validation, hard constraints and reproducible tests. Review source-linked explanations and uncertainty before accepting results. One approved capture method and a fixed set of agent versions; final quality judgments and production changes remain with the responsible engineering owner. A model suggestion is never a verified fact, professional decision or authorization to act.
What your team sees
Primary screens: Agent and project setup, Live run board, Trace and session explorer, Evaluation and rubric workbench, Health and cost dashboard, Export and training-data review. Use a project list with agent versions, a central session timeline with a waterfall view, and a right-hand panel for spans, reasoning blocks, annotations and comments. Let users compare agent versions side by side. Display running, needs review, reviewed and failed states. Provide a shareable trace link with comments anchored to the relevant span. Make the task-specific outcome reviewed agent health reports and debug findings visible beside its evidence, review state and value baseline.
Accounts and administration
Project ownership, agent versions, trace retention, rubric versions, reviewer assignments, approval states, usage allowances, export history and a rights record for supplied traces. Add organization access boundaries, named reviewers, usage caps, data retention controls, export logs and explicit approval for external actions.
Integrations and data access
Agent-owned traces, authorized evaluation rubrics and permitted production metrics. Cloud trace storage, OpenTelemetry collectors, data sources such as PostgreSQL, internal APIs and Pinecone, and training-data destinations. Start with file exchange and validate destination specifications before promising direct publishing. Start with authorized file exchange. Validate current provider access, usage rights and schema behavior before promising a connector.
How we build it
We build with our own AI software development factory, so most implementations take days to a few weeks of creation time, not months. You see working software at every step, and exact timing depends on availability.

Why we start with an MVP
An MVP, or minimum viable product, is the smallest version that your users can actually work with. It is not a cheap version of the full solution. It is a test, built to answer the questions that decide whether the rest is worth building.
- Pick the riskiest assumption. Here: will engineering and operations teams running AI agents in production use it to solve "agent behavior in production is hard to trace, score and debug across models, tools and sub-agents, so quality drift and failures surface late"?
- Build only what tests it. One team, one use case, a few core modules. People do the rest by hand for now.
- Run a paid pilot. Agree quality and outcome thresholds before the pilot using this measure: Time to diagnose a failed run and share of runs with a completed review.
- Measure, then decide. Track time to diagnose a failed run and share of runs with a completed review; accepted-output rate; material error rate; reviewer correction time; actual repeat purchase. Then expand, change course or stop, with evidence instead of opinions.
MVP scope for this solution. Pilot scope: One approved capture method and a fixed set of agent versions; final quality judgments and production changes remain with the responsible engineering owner. Implement one approved input format, a bounded representative case set and the first five task modules: capture full agent executions as sessions, traces and spans; group related traces and calls into one session timeline; score traces and sessions with agent-specific metrics and rubrics; schedule recurring evaluations and track agent health over time; track token usage, cost and latency per request and workflow step. Support the remaining modules with operator review: label user intents, corrections and agent resolutions automatically; collect reasoning blocks and tool decision metadata; segment metrics by agent version; monitor agent runs in real time; track workflow state; support parallel instances and sub-agent reporting; debug failures; manage agent configuration; visualize latency in a waterfall timeline; capture TLS-encrypted LLM calls; map agent turns to traces and spans; convert production traffic into fine-tuning training data; detect unsupported claims; generate test questions; connect to data sources. Include source references, corrections, basic organization access, approval states, export and value measurement. Use managed operator assistance for unresolved exceptions. The cost estimate covers this narrow prototype, not unrestricted multi-tenant scale, complex production integrations, specialist certification or physical operations.
After the MVP. Once paid pilots prove usefulness, automate repeatable reviewed steps and add one verified source integration. Expand supported inputs and case volume only after new evaluation cases pass. Build reusable customer configurations and recurring value reports around reviewed agent health reports and debug findings. Retain the explicit scope boundary: One approved capture method and a fixed set of agent versions; final quality judgments and production changes remain with the responsible engineering owner.
What the build depends on. Trace upload and preview, asynchronous evaluation jobs, editable version history, reviewer access and tested export formats. High-fidelity production requires specialist engineering QA. Obtain representative authorized cases, baseline measurements, qualified reviewers and a buyer-side decision owner. Specific limitation: One approved capture method and a fixed set of agent versions; final quality judgments and production changes remain with the responsible engineering owner.

Pricing to test
Test a USD 300-1,500 fixed pilot for one defined agent package. Offer a monthly production allowance after repeat demand. Quote complex multi-agent or on-premise capture separately. These are test prices, not market benchmarks. Package the initial sale as one bounded reviewed agent health reports and debug findings. Recurring fees must specify volume, review depth and integration support. For exchanges, test a disclosed coordination or successful-service fee rather than holding customer funds. Reprice only after measuring real delivery labor; platform-build cost is separate from a commercial pilot fee.
Message to test
Reduce time to diagnose agent failures and quality drift while keeping production traces under the team's control. Demonstrate a concrete reviewed agent health reports and debug findings using the buyer's approved example and show the baseline, corrections and actual delivery effort.
Where to find buyers
Engineering and operations teams running AI agents in production professional communities; specialist consultants serving this buyer; permissioned partner introductions; practical demonstrations at relevant trade or practitioner events.
Lead magnet
A reviewed sample reviewed agent health reports and debug findings from a small authorized input set, with a transparent calculation of time to diagnose a failed run and share of runs with a completed review and no promised savings.
The first 30 days
- Week 1: interview five engineering and operations teams running AI agents in production and inspect a recent example of agent behavior in production is hard to trace, score and debug across models, tools and sub-agents, so quality drift and failures surface late.
- Week 2: prepare a consented or synthetic demonstration of the task modules.
- Week 3: seek one bounded paid pilot with agreed baseline and acceptance criteria.
- Week 4: measure time to diagnose a failed run and share of runs with a completed review, reviewer effort and repeat-purchase interest. This is a demand-validation plan, not a thirty-day full-product delivery promise.
Paid pilot
Agree quality and outcome thresholds before the pilot using this measure: Time to diagnose a failed run and share of runs with a completed review. Continue only if the buyer accepts the actual output, the intended job outcome improves without unacceptable errors, and measured delivery cost fits willingness to pay. Revise or stop if access is unavailable, qualified review cannot be provided, or apparent savings disappear after corrections and support. Use held-out cases when comparing model quality; use a properly reviewed comparison design before making causal claims. Record missing cases and negative results alongside successful outputs.
Success metrics
Time to diagnose a failed run and share of runs with a completed review; accepted-output rate; material error rate; reviewer correction time; actual repeat purchase.
Retention and expansion
Repeat the workflow when the buyer again needs reviewed agent health reports and debug findings. Retain permissioned settings and reviewed examples, report realized value honestly, and sell increased volume or adjacent approved workflows only after contribution margin and quality remain acceptable.
Why clients would pick it
A reusable library of approved rubrics, agent versions and review examples, together with reliable delivery for a narrow production-agent niche. Build a permissioned library of representative task cases, reviewer corrections and verified operating constraints for engineering and operations teams running AI agents in production. Repeatable delivery and useful integrations matter more than access to a base model.
Alternatives and positioning
PandaProbe Cloud, PandaProbe, Progress AI Observability, Voker, Foglamp, Unify, AgentCenter for OpenClaw, PromptLayer, Heron and Rippletide Eval CLI. Compare this product with the buyer's present method on time to diagnose a failed run and share of runs with a completed review. Offer a bounded paid workflow instead of claiming broad autonomous expertise. Market uniqueness and competitor coverage are not verified.
Main delivery costs
Trace storage, evaluation compute, reviewer hours, client revision rounds and licensed source assets. Additional initial validation requires representative authorized sample preparation, buyer interviews, buyer-side evaluation and bounded validation of reviewed agent health reports and debug findings. Track cost per accepted output, including correction work, unsuccessful cases and support.
Safeguards
Preserve trace integrity, source attribution, evaluation accuracy and usage permissions. Engineering owners approve substantive changes and production scope. One approved capture method and a fixed set of agent versions; final quality judgments and production changes remain with the responsible engineering owner. Keep all consequential actions under authorized human control and do not fabricate missing inputs, permissions, professional judgments or market evidence.
