- Balance auto-evals with the last mile of human reviews: While LLM-judges or programmatic evals provide scale, human evaluations capture nuanced quality signals that auto evals might miss.
- Curate golden datasets: Human-annotated datasets are key to defining what “good” means for your specific use case, forming the foundation for effective offline evaluation.
- Align LLM judges: LLM judges must be aligned with human preferences continuously to ensure they are tuned to your agent-specific outcomes.
