Duelpoint and other ways to test.

Duelpoint tests one thing: what an AI agent does with money when people push it. It sends simulated customers, buyers, suppliers and fraudsters, checks the agent’s actions against your own rules, and reports how often it held firm, with ranges and costs. Evaluation platforms, security tools, vendor test suites and manual review answer other questions, and are often the better choice for them.

01The options

OptionStrongest atWhat Duelpoint adds
AI evaluation platformsAnswer quality, regressions, datasets, tracing and model-graded scoring across many use casesMulti-turn commercial attackers against your own money rules, scored by outcomes, with costs
Security red-teaming toolsPrompt injection, jailbreaks, data exposure and other security weaknessesCommercial pressure (haggling, refund pushing, supplier tricks) and how often it costs money
Your agent vendor’s own testingTesting within its platform, often free and quick to startAn independent party, the same method for any platform, scripts you cannot tune against
Manual QA and transcript reviewTone, brand voice, judgement on unusual casesHundreds of conversations, rates with ranges, exact outcome checks
Building your ownFull control, tuned to your systemsReady now, maintained, independent, with a referee and statistics already built

02When another option is better

  • AI evaluation platforms: You need broad quality monitoring across many kinds of task.
  • Security red-teaming tools: Your main question is security, not commercial loss.
  • Your agent vendor’s own testing: You only need a quick check while building.
  • Manual QA and transcript review: You are prototyping, or checking tone.
  • Building your own: Testing is core to your product and you can maintain it.
  • Duelpoint: your agent can refund, discount, ship, pay or show customer records, and you need to know how often it gives way, and what it costs.

Questions

Why are no products named here?

Products change quickly. We compare kinds of tool, and will only name a product once every statement about it has been checked against its own documentation.

Can Duelpoint be used alongside these?

Yes. Most teams keep their evaluation platform for answer quality, their security testing for the system, and add Duelpoint for what the agent does with money.

See where your agent leaks money. Tested against your own rules, with the money at stake.
