Patronus AI Integration

​

What is Patronus AI?

​

Key Features of This Integration

1. Advanced AI Evaluation: State-of-the-art evaluation models designed to detect hallucinations, assess context relevance, and evaluate answer correctness across RAG systems and AI agents with industry-leading accuracy.
2. Comprehensive Security & Safety Checks: Built-in evaluators for prompt injection detection, sensitive data leakage (PII), toxicity detection, bias assessment, and OWASP risk identification to ensure your AI systems remain secure and compliant.
3. Production-Ready Evaluators: Access real-time evaluation with fast API response times (as low as 100ms) and support for both off-the-shelf evaluators and custom evaluators tailored to your specific use cases like brand alignment and tone of voice.

Validation Logic

• If data.results[].evaluation_result.pass is false, the request will be blocked and a 400 error is returned.
• If data.results[].evaluation_result.pass is true, the request will be allowed to proceed.
