Shipping AI features with confidence
A practical checklist from experiments to SLA-backed services.
Three pillars matter for production AI: observability, cost control, and human-in-the-loop.
Observability
Structured logs and quality metrics for prompts are non-negotiable. Example:
logger.info("ai.completion", { latencyMs, tokens, route });
Cost & safety
Start with caching, rate limits, and PII masking — then optimize model choice.
