TruthOps
TruthOps provides operational monitoring and governance for autonomous AI agents in your organization. Register agents, set autonomy levels, configure policies, and monitor health in real-time.
What Is TruthOps?
TruthOps is the operations layer for managing AI agents at scale. As your organization deploys more autonomous AI systems, TruthOps helps you:
- Inventory: Register all agents with metadata (owner, risk level, type)
- Control: Set autonomy levels (how much can agents decide independently?)
- Configure: Define policies (escalation rules, approval gates, data retention)
- Monitor: Track agent health (accuracy, latency, uptime, cost)
- Override: Manually correct agent decisions when needed
- Audit: Complete audit trail for compliance
Key Concepts
Agents
An agent is an autonomous AI system that makes decisions or takes actions with limited human oversight.
Examples: Customer service chatbot, hiring screener, content moderation, loan approval, data classifier
Not agents: ChatGPT (user controls), analytics tool (provides info only), report generator (no decisions)
Autonomy Levels
Every agent operates at a specific autonomy level (1-5):
- Level 5: Fully autonomous (no human involvement)
- Level 4: Autonomous + monitoring (humans monitor, not approve)
- Level 3: Escalation-based (routine decisions automated; complex escalated)
- Level 2: Human-decides (AI assists; humans approve)
- Level 1: Informational only (AI provides info; humans decide everything)
Your customer service agent might be Level 3 (handle simple questions, escalate complex ones). Your hiring screener is Level 2 (AI scores; human hires).
Health Metrics
Track agent performance against targets:
- Accuracy: % of decisions meeting quality standard
- Latency: Response time
- Availability: Uptime %
- Cost: Monthly spending
- Throughput: Decisions per minute
Getting Started
Step 1: Audit Your Agents
What autonomous AI systems do you have?
- Customer service chatbot?
- Hiring/recruiting tools?
- Content moderation?
- Financial (loan approval, fraud detection)?
- Data analytics or insights agents?
- Email filtering/triage?
- Code generation or dev tools?
List all agents your organization uses.
Step 2: Register in TruthOps
For each agent, provide:
- Name: Descriptive identifier
- Type: Category (Customer Service, Hiring, Finance, etc.)
- Owner: Responsible person/team
- Risk level: Critical/High/Medium/Low
- LLM provider: Which LLM powers it?
- Users affected: How many people use this?
Go to TruthOps → Agents → Register New Agent
Step 3: Set Autonomy Level
For each agent, choose autonomy level (1-5) based on:
- Risk (impact if wrong)
- Reversibility (can errors be fixed easily?)
- Regulatory requirement (is human approval required?)
Example:
- Customer service (deflect 40% of tickets) → Level 3 (escalate complex)
- Resume screener (AI scores; human hires) → Level 2 (human decides)
- Email auto-reply (low-risk summary) → Level 5 (fully autonomous)
Go to TruthOps → Autonomy to set levels and controls
Step 4: Configure Policies
Define rules for how agents should behave:
- Approval gates (when escalate to human?)
- Confidence thresholds (when uncertain, what to do?)
- Rate limits (prevent API overages)
- Data handling (what data to retain/delete?)
- Fallback (what if agent fails?)
Go to TruthOps → Configuration to set policies
Step 5: Monitor Health
Watch agent performance in real-time:
- Accuracy metrics
- Response latency
- Uptime/SLA compliance
- Cost tracking
- Error rates
Go to TruthOps → Monitoring to see dashboard
Key Features
Agent Inventory
Central registry of all agents:
- Metadata (type, owner, risk level, LLM provider)
- Performance targets (accuracy, latency, uptime, cost)
- Health status (green/yellow/red)
- Quick-access to configuration and monitoring
Autonomy Controls
Define what each agent can decide independently:
- Confidence thresholds (escalate if uncertain)
- Approval gates (humans sign off on critical decisions)
- Escalation rules (who to escalate to, when)
- Override capability (users can override agent decisions)
Real-Time Monitoring
Dashboard shows agent health:
- Performance trends
- Alert status and history
- Cost tracking
- Incident management
Manual Overrides
Correct agent decisions when needed:
- Review decision logs
- Override incorrect decisions
- Provide feedback (helps improve agent)
- Bulk corrections (fix multiple errors at once)
Audit Trail
Complete logging for compliance:
- All decisions logged
- Overrides tracked (who, when, why)
- Incident history
- Compliance reporting

Use Cases
Use Case 1: Risk Management
You’ve deployed 5 AI agents across the organization. You need to ensure each one operates within risk tolerance:
Solution:
- Register agents in TruthOps
- Classify by risk (Critical/High/Medium/Low)
- Set autonomy level appropriate for risk
- Configure approval gates and escalation
- Monitor health and respond to incidents
Outcome: Confident that agents are operating safely; audit-ready compliance.
Use Case 2: Cost Control
AI spending is growing; you need visibility into costs per agent:
Solution:
- Track LLM API costs per agent in TruthOps
- Set monthly budgets and alerts (80%, 100%)
- Monitor cost trends over time
- Implement cost controls (rate limiting, cheaper models, batch processing)
Outcome: Keep AI spending within budget; identify optimization opportunities.
Use Case 3: Performance Management
Agent accuracy drifting; you need to detect and fix issues quickly:
Solution:
- Set accuracy target (e.g., 85%)
- Configure alert when accuracy drops below target
- Receive alert within 1 hour
- Investigate root cause (data drift? new input type?)
- Update agent or knowledge base to fix
- Monitor for recovery
Outcome: Catch accuracy issues quickly; minimize customer impact.
Best Practices
- Start with inventory — Know what agents you have before you can govern them
- Right autonomy level — Match autonomy to risk; start conservative, increase gradually
- Clear ownership — Assign one person responsible for each agent
- Monitoring baseline — Monitor for 2-4 weeks before setting alerts (establish normal range)
- Alert fatigue — Be selective about alerts; tune thresholds to signal real problems
- Regular review — Quarterly check: are autonomy levels still appropriate? Are metrics targets still reasonable?
Next Steps
- Take inventory — List all autonomous AI agents in your org
- Register in TruthOps — Add each agent with metadata
- Classify by risk — Critical/High/Medium/Low
- Set autonomy levels — How much can each decide independently?
- Configure policies — Approval gates, escalation, data handling
- Monitor & iterate — Track health; adjust as needed
