Playgent

When enterprise agents fail in production, the conditions that caused the failure are critical: user state, data, tool calls, and context. Without a way to recreate these conditions, teams can't fix what broke. Playgent provides infrastructure to create high-fidelity sandbox environments for AI agents. Our environments come packaged as a single MCP url where tool calls are mocked, authentication is abstracted away, and test data can be initialized via natural language or JSON specifications. Tea

Similarity graph

Local clusters rerank extracted product concepts and description terms. The generated graph remains the fallback for sparse descriptions: offline reciprocal product-similarity graph: extracted concepts + description terms + bounded category/affiliation boosts. Minimum fallback score: 0; max competitors: 6.

Arga Labs

match 73

We build environments to test your app and agents against the real world. Deploy your code/agent into a sandbox that runs against replicas of external services (Stripe, Slack, Google Drive, etc.). Twins support the same APIs, MCP tool calls & SDKs as the real software, and you can spin up thousands of instances in parallel and seed them using natural language. Run real workflows, surface edge cases, and observe how your code/agents actually behave before hitting production.

Physical Turing

match 59

Physical Turing tests humanoids in the real world and returns actionable failure data before deployment. We procure, staff, and operate a wide range of target environments for real-world rollouts, helping robot makers, model companies, and enterprises continuously evaluate where humanoids succeed, where they fail, and what needs to improve before each deployment.

Boundary

match 57

Boundary is building BAML -- a programming language to build AI agents. We used to code in assembly, and moved on to C. From C, we moved on to higher level languages like Python. Now we are going from Python to natural language. What does the code look like when 50% of the business decisions is decided by an AI agent / prompts? How do you test these AI components? We made BAML to address these problems. BAML helps has built-in tools to test, observe, and work with structured LLM outputs / tool c

Plotdrive

match 54

Plotdrive is the first continuous production system for narrative — infrastructure that transforms how long-form stories move from imagination to completion. Most books don’t fail for lack of talent; they fail when the workflow collapses somewhere between page 80 and page 300. Founded by brothers with backgrounds in high-stakes poker, VR, and narrative systems, we built what we couldn’t find: an engine that holds the entire shape of a story while authors work inside it. Writers see 5-10× gains i

The Context Company

match 53

Understand user patterns and find silent failures in your AI agents. The Context Company helps teams analyze AI agent conversations to surface user behavior patterns, performance trends, and moments where agents struggle - so teams know what’s working, what’s not, and what to improve next. We turn raw conversations into structured signals: topic clustering, user feedback analysis, custom pattern tracking, and alerts. All alongside traditional observability like traces, tool calls, latency, and c

Narrative

match 46

Narrative is the easiest way to create end-to-end tests, replacing Playwright, Selenium, and Cypress with self-healing tests. Record your user journeys to deploy tests in minutes, and let our agents handle flaky selectors and timing issues. When a test fails, you get a bug report in plain English that's easy to triage. Trusted by Nanonets, Commenda, Drumkit, Metal, and Vega. Learn more at www.trynarrative.com
