Offer a fixed-scope productionization sprint that maps one critical agent workflow, builds a representative evaluation suite, instruments production traces, diagnoses failure modes, and hardens the agent loop. Deliver the evaluation harness, reliability baseline, prioritized remediation plan, and implementation of the highest-impact fixes, followed by an optional managed evaluation service.

Companies are moving agents into infrastructure and back-office workflows where mistakes have operational consequences. The signals show repeated investment in research engineers who can connect prototypes, production traffic, evaluations, and dependable product features.
