Evals are a product surface

Why evaluation dashboards belong next to feature work—not buried in a research folder.

If evals are not visible to PMs and designers, they will not influence roadmap tradeoffs. Make regressions legible with human-readable diffs.

Golden sets rot. Schedule freshness reviews and automate alerts when distributions shift in production telemetry.

Pair quantitative metrics with qualitative spot checks. The fastest way to lose trust is optimizing a metric nobody experiences as quality.
