The Definitive Guide to AI Accuracy Infrastructure

OpenAI recently released A Practical Guide to Building Agents, outlining how to create AI agents that reason, act, and automate workflows. But turning those guidelines into a reliable, production-ready agent is where many teams get stuck.

This is where Empromptu comes in.

Empromptu provides the infrastructure to measure, optimize, and productionize agents—safely, predictably, and at scale. This guide breaks down OpenAI’s strategy and shows how Empromptu helps you execute it faster and more accurately.

1. Foundations: Model, Tools, Instructions

OpenAI says an agent needs:

• A model for decision-making
• Tools to interact with systems
• Instructions to guide behavior

With Empromptu, every piece is optimized:

• 🔁 Prompt Optimization Engine auto-generates and evaluates prompt variants.
• 📊 Model Evaluation Matrix benchmarks reasoning across task-specific evals.
• 🛠️ Toolchain Monitoring tracks tool outputs, errors, and performance.

✅ Result: You get measurable, improvable agent components—on day one.

2. Accuracy First: Self Correcting Infrastructure

OpenAI recommends starting with your most capable model and measuring its performance.

Empromptu provides a purpose-built accuracy layer:

• ⚡️Self Correcting AI: Our end-to-end system will self correct accuracy problems based on your custom definitions
• 🧪 Evals-as-a-Service: Measure outputs against rubrics or ground truth.
• 🆚 A/B Testing Platform: Test models, prompts, tools side-by-side.
• 🎯 Accuracy Baselines: Define success criteria and track dips in performance.

✅ Result: You don’t just build agents—you know if they’re working.

3. Orchestration Done Right

OpenAI describes two orchestration models:

• Single-agent systems with loops
• Multi-agent systems with handoffs

Empromptu supports both with:

• 🧩 Task Step Evaluators: Grade each action step in workflows.
• 🔁 Context Transfer Tracking: Prevent information loss in agent handoffs.
• 🗺️ Execution Graph Visualizer: See agent behavior and trace failures in real time.

✅ Result: You can trust your agents, even as complexity grows.

4. Safety & Guardrails

Guardrails are essential to prevent hallucinations, PII leaks, or brand misalignment.

Empromptu offers:

• 🚨 Custom Safety Classifiers: Detect unsafe, off-policy, or irrelevant answers.
• 🧯 Guardrail Logging & Auditing: Analyze every trip event and refine over time.
• 🧑‍⚖️ Human-in-the-Loop Hooks: Escalate edge cases, protect brand integrity.

✅ Result: You launch with safety—and stay secure at scale.

5. Continuous Learning & Drift Detection

OpenAI urges teams to start simple and iterate fast.

Empromptu makes this easy:

• 🔄 Prompt Family Management: Automatically pick the best prompt variant per input.
• 📉 Behavioral Drift Alerts: Get notified when model behavior changes unexpectedly.
• 💬 Feedback Collection SDK: Let users help you improve your agents in production.

✅ Result: Your agents get smarter with every interaction.
