🛡️ EvalMesh — The Control Plane for Production AI Applications

EvalMesh is the control plane for production AI applications.
It evaluates, secures, routes, monitors, and improves every AI request before it reaches your users — giving engineering teams the confidence to ship reliable AI systems faster while spending 90% less time on manual testing and troubleshooting.

                        EvalMesh Continuous AI Control Plane Flywheel

     Build AI Apps  ➔  Evaluate Automatically  ➔  Secure & Govern  ➔  Monitor Production  ➔  Improve Continuously

🎯 What Problem Does EvalMesh Solve?

Imagine a team building a production AI assistant. Every single day, engineers ask:

• Is the AI still accurate after today's prompt edit?
• Did a provider model update introduce new hallucinations or regressions?
• Which AI model provider is faster, cheaper, and more reliable for this task?
• Are user prompts safe, or are attackers trying prompt injection attacks?
• Are we accidentally leaking sensitive customer PII to external API providers?

Without EvalMesh, engineers spend hours every week manually testing prompts in spreadsheets.
With EvalMesh, the entire lifecycle is automated in real-time.
