About Coval
Coval accelerates AI agent development with automated testing for chat, voice, and other objective-oriented systems. Many engineering teams are racing to market with AI agents, but slow manual testing processes are holding them back. Teams currently play whack-a-mole just to discover that fixing one issue introduces another. At Coval, we use automated simulation and evaluation techniques inspired by the autonomous vehicle industry to boost test coverage, speed up development, and validate consistent performance.
