Value proposition
One OpenAI API-compatible endpoint tuned to a customer workflow through approved real-traffic failure analysis, custom evaluations, and managed improvement.
Products and solutions
Managed OpenAI-compatible inference endpoint, agent-trajectory analysis, custom evaluation and post-training workflow, long-horizon autonomous research environment.
