Evaluating AI Agents: A production blueprint with Strands and AgentCore

AWS · 2 months ago · 41

Motorway and AWS built an evaluation pipeline for an AI agent that helps car dealers search vehicle inventory using natural language queries, reducing incorrect results from 1 in 8 to 1 in 50. The pipeline combines the Strands Agents SDK with Amazon Bedrock AgentCore and uses a three-layer framework assessing tool usage (>95% pass threshold), reasoning (>85%), and output quality (>90%), plus a five-stage deployment process with quality gates. Organizations can now catch agent failures before production and during runtime, with test case management and multi-trial evaluation metrics ensuring consistent behavior across repeated interactions.
