| description.long | A framework that lets developers create and run evaluations to measure LLM performance, providing both pre-built benchmarks and tools to write custom tests tailored to specific use cases without requiring proprietary evaluation infrastructure. | A Python-based framework that evaluates RAG applications through automatic metrics covering faithfulness, relevance, and recall. Includes tools to synthetically generate test datasets customized for specific use cases, enabling developers to assess LLM application performance at both component and end-to-end levels. |
