# Introduction

> Evaluate, test, and monitor your AI products with Galtea.

Galtea is the evaluation platform for AI products. Test accuracy, safety, and behavior — from RAG pipelines to conversational agents to security testing.

## How It Works

Galtea helps you evaluate AI products through a repeatable test-measure-iterate cycle:

<Steps>
  <Step title="Register Product">Register a [Product](/concepts/product) to represent your AI functionality.</Step>
  <Step title="Define Specifications">Define [Specifications](/concepts/product/specification) — testable behavioral expectations for your product (capabilities, inabilities, policies).</Step>
  <Step title="Generate Metrics & Tests">Galtea [generates metrics](/concepts/metric/ai-generation) and [tests](/concepts/product/test) from your specifications, or you create them manually.</Step>
  <Step title="Create Version">Define a new [Version](/concepts/product/version) of your product to track changes over time.</Step>
  <Step title="Run Evaluations">Run [Evaluations](/concepts/product/version/session/evaluation) — `evaluations.run()` resolves specs, tests, and metrics automatically.</Step>
  <Step title="Analyze & Iterate">Review results in the Analytics dashboard, then iterate with new versions to track improvements.</Step>
</Steps>

## Core Concepts

Galtea is built around several key concepts that work together to provide comprehensive evaluation of AI products. For a diagram of how they all connect, start with the [Concepts overview](/concepts/overview).
