Know when AI agents are ready for release

Release-testing infrastructure for regulated AI agents. Domain-specific evaluation suites so teams know exactly what fails before they ship.

What Asteria Is

The release gate your agents need

Companies in compliance, mortgage, legal, and healthcare are deploying AI agents at scale. But when the cost of a bad answer is legal, financial, or medical risk, you can't rely on LLM-as-judge or benchmarks scraped from the internet.

Asteria builds domain-specific evaluation infrastructure — trained on expert annotations, powered by reinforcement learning — so you know exactly what fails before you ship.

The Problem

Generic evals don't work here

Companies in compliance, mortgage, legal, and healthcare are deploying AI agents. But when the cost of a bad answer is legal, financial, or medical risk, you can't rely on LLM-as-judge or benchmarks scraped from the internet.

Today, evaluation is either nothing, unreliable, or unscalable. None of them tell you whether your agent is actually safe to ship.

Nothing

Ship and pray

No real evaluation at all. Teams smoke-test a few inputs, and if it looks right, they ship — discovering failures in production or in a customer's risk review.

Unreliable

Generic benchmarks

LLM-as-judge or benchmarks scraped from the internet. They measure noise, not whether your agent meets a real domain standard where the cost of a bad answer is legal, financial, or medical risk.

Unscalable

Manual review

Hire contractors to check every output by hand. Slow, expensive, and impossible to run on every version — exactly when you need it most.

Not another generic eval

How It Works

From expert knowledge to release gate

01

Define the Standard

Your domain experts define evaluation rubrics for your actual agent workflows. Compliance officers, underwriters, legal reviewers — the people who know what good looks like.

Expert-defined, not LLM-judged
02

Train the Reward Model

Expert annotations train a calibrated reward model specific to your domain. It learns to evaluate complex, multi-step agent traces against a real standard.

Domain-calibrated evaluation
03

Find Where It Breaks

RL-powered adversarial testing discovers edge cases and failure modes your agents hit in production. Not random fuzzing — targeted, intelligent probing.

RL-driven failure discovery
04

Ship with Confidence

Before releasing a new agent version, know exactly what fails, why it fails, and whether it meets your deployment threshold. A release gate, not a rubber stamp.

Pass/fail release gate
For Teams

Built for high-stakes domains

Active design partners

Compliance

AI agents reviewing documents against regulatory requirements. When the cost of error is legal risk.

Pipeline

Mortgage & Finance

Agents processing applications, verifying data, underwriting decisions. Where mistakes cost real money.

Expanding

Legal & Healthcare

Agent workflows where accuracy is literally a matter of compliance, liability, or patient safety.
