Empower AI teams to be confident in their AI products
Our mission is to empower AI teams to understand AI behavior so they can build more reliable, refined, and capable AI products.

This is a huge opportunity
As the capacity of AI expands, so does its potential impact across a growing range of applications.
But as teams scale AI in production, they often find it increasingly becomes a black box. And without confidence in how their products are being used–or how this usage shifts over time–AI teams find it hard to evolve their products over time.
The first step is understanding AI behavior – the interplay and correlations between users, context, tools, models, and metrics.
Rely on Distributional to understand AI product behavior and scale these AI products with confidence.
