Kaizen AI Lab
AI Agent QA & Audit

Your AI Agents Are Running.
But Are They Working?

Most AI agents deploy without QA, without monitoring, and without
a kill switch. We audit your agent fleet across 5 dimensions:
reliability, security, cost, governance, and observability.

The Problems Nobody Is Solving

Every software product gets QA before production. Every employee gets
onboarding before system access. AI agents get neither.

No Inventory

Engineering teams spin up agents faster than leadership can track. Shadow agents proliferate. Nobody knows the full count, the full permission set, or the full cost.

Token Waste

Phantom tokens from stuck retries, keep-alive loops, and oversized context windows. A $50/month agent quietly becomes $5,000/month. No alert, no timeout, no budget cap.

The Liability Gap

Your AI vendor's ToS limits liability to your subscription fee. Your cyber insurer almost certainly excludes AI agent actions. When an agent introduces a vulnerability, the liability is yours.

No Kill Switch

When an agent starts corrupting production data at 2am, who stops it? If the answer requires deploying code or contacting a vendor, the blast radius expands every minute.

Agent Threat Vectors

Prompt injection, data poisoning, jailbreaking, supply chain compromise through plugins and MCP servers. Traditional penetration testing does not cover these attack surfaces.

Multi-Agent Cascade Risk

Agents triggering agents with no human checkpoint. Unbounded feedback loops. Permission escalation through proxy chains. One failure cascades across your entire agent fleet.

What We Audit

Five dimensions. Every agent scored 1 to 10 on each. Weighted
composite determines your deployment health score.

30% Weight

Reliability

Output consistency across runs. Error rate measurement. Failure recovery behavior. Context degradation thresholds. CAT pattern detection for coding agents. SLA compliance verification.

🔒
25% Weight

Security

Permission mapping against least privilege. Kill switch testing. Prompt injection and jailbreak resistance. Supply chain integrity for plugins and MCP servers. DPA verification. Privilege waiver risk assessment.

💰
20% Weight

Cost Efficiency

Per-agent token spend analysis. Stuck loop and retry pattern detection. Phantom token identification. Cost-per-output ratios. Vendor concentration and lock-in risk scoring.

📋
15% Weight

Governance

Deployment approval workflows. Kill switch documentation and testing. Rollback procedures. Agent lifecycle management: provisioning, version control, deprecation, and shadow agent detection.

📊
10% Weight

Observability

Logging coverage. Alerting thresholds. Dashboard visibility. Anomaly detection. Incident response readiness. Multi-agent dependency mapping and cascade failure detection.

How It Works

1

Discovery & Inventory

We access your provider dashboards, billing data, code repos, and network logs. We find agents you don't know about.

2

Test & Score

Every agent scored 1 to 10 across 5 dimensions. Reliability testing, permission audit, token burn analysis, threat modeling.

3

Report & Roadmap

15 to 60 page report with risk quantification, governance framework, incident playbook, and phased remediation plan.

4

Fix & Monitor

Follow the roadmap or let us implement the fixes. Ongoing monitoring catches new risks as your agent fleet evolves.

The 5 Stages of Agent Deployment Maturity

Where does your organization fall?

1

Wild West 1.0 - 2.9

No inventory, no governance, no monitoring. Agents deployed ad hoc by individual developers.

2

Inventory 3.0 - 4.9

Agents are known and cataloged. No systematic governance, testing, or cost management.

3

Governed 5.0 - 6.9

Formal deployment approval, basic monitoring, documented kill switches. Governance exists but is not comprehensive.

4

Optimized 7.0 - 8.4

All agents scored, monitored, and governed. Token spend optimized. Incident response tested. Continuous improvement.

5

Autonomous 8.5 - 10.0

Self-healing agent infrastructure. Automated governance enforcement. Real-time anomaly detection with automatic remediation.

Agent Legal Risk

Your AI Agents May Be Waiving Attorney-Client Privilege

A federal judge ruled that documents created using consumer AI tools are not protected by attorney-client privilege.
(Heppner v. United States, SDNY 2026). Consumer AI equals third-party disclosure equals privilege waived.

AQA classifies every agent's underlying AI provider as Consumer or Enterprise based on DPA verification
and training-on-inputs policy. Agents processing privileged, confidential, or regulated data through
consumer-grade providers receive a Critical Legal Risk finding with dollar-value exposure estimates.

The AQA audit includes DPA verification, source code exposure analysis, and (for law
firm clients) an enhanced privilege assessment with per-matter exposure mapping.

Who This Is For

If you deploy AI agents, you need agent QA. These roles feel it most.

CTO / VP Engineering

Your team deployed 15 agents last quarter. You approved 6. You don't know what the other 9 can access, what they cost, or what happens when they fail. The board is asking questions you can't answer.

Head of AI / ML Lead

Your agents work in staging. Production is different: context degradation, stuck approvals, token burn, inconsistent outputs. You need systematic QA, not ad hoc debugging.

CISO / Head of Security

AI agents represent a new attack surface: prompt injection, data exfiltration, privilege escalation through tool chains. Your threat model was written before these agents existed.

VP Engineering (Regulated)

The CEO wants agents everywhere by Q3. You can't articulate the risks to non-technical leadership. You need external validation for a governance-first approach before scaling.

The Kaizen Difference

We don't just audit agents. We build and operate them.

40+ Agents in Production

We run our own multi-agent operating system (KaizenOS) across content, operations, research, and client delivery. We know how agents fail because we fix our own every week.

Legal + Technical Expertise

Our founder has 19 years of legal practice and has built AI systems across 7 industries. We audit from both sides: the code and the liability. Most consultants only see half of the equation.

Agent-Specific, Not Generic AI

Not a compliance checklist repurposed for agents. Not a GRC tool that added an "AI" tab. A dedicated methodology built specifically for evaluating deployed AI agent fleets.

Cross-Platform Visibility

Most organizations use agents across OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, and local models. No vendor dashboard gives you a unified view. AQA audits all of them in a single engagement.

Industry Context from 90 Verticals

Our SME knowledge library covers 90 industry niches. Your audit is calibrated with industry-specific regulations, benchmarks, risk multipliers, and vendor recommendations.

Finding to Fix, Not Just Findings

Every finding includes dollar-value risk estimates, remediation cost, and ROI framing. The governance framework and incident playbook are delivered with the report, not sold separately.

Questions

What types of agents do you audit?
Any AI agent in production: coding agents (Cursor, Copilot, Claude Code, Devin, custom), customer service bots, data pipeline agents, content generation agents, internal workflow agents, and custom-built autonomous systems. Platform and vendor agnostic. We audit across OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, Azure, AWS Bedrock, local models, and any other provider you use.
How long does an audit take?
Tier 1 (Inventory and Risk Assessment): 1 week (5 business days). Tier 2 (Deep Audit + Governance): 2 to 3 weeks. Timeline depends on agent count and deployment complexity. We scope during the free consultation call.
Do you need access to our systems?
For Tier 1, we work from documentation, interviews, and configuration exports. For Tier 2, we need read-only access to agent configurations, logs, and token usage data. We never need production write access. All access is scoped, documented, and revoked at engagement end.
How is this different from monitoring tools like Datadog or LangSmith?
Monitoring tools show you what agents are doing right now. We assess whether what they're doing is safe, efficient, and compliant. Monitoring is telemetry. This is QA. You need both, but monitoring alone does not catch permission overprovisioning, governance gaps, liability exposure, prompt injection vulnerabilities, or failure modes that only surface under specific conditions.
What if we only have a few agents?
Even a single agent with production write access carries risk. Tier 1 starts at $4,999 for up to 25 agents. Small deployments often have the largest per-agent risk because they lack any governance infrastructure.
How do you handle our data during the audit?
Client data is isolated per engagement, encrypted at rest and in transit, and never used to train AI models. Sensitive engagement data (agent configs, permissions, API keys) is deleted 90 days after completion. You can request immediate deletion at any time.
Do you offer ongoing support after the audit?
Yes. Tier 3 is ongoing monthly monitoring ($149 to $349/mo) with continuous oversight, new agent onboarding reviews, permission drift detection, quarterly governance updates, and 4-hour SLA incident response. Requires completing Tier 2 first for the baseline.
