Perf
AI Output Control Layer

Our Take
Perf is the checkpoint you didn't know AI needed. It's a verification layer that sits between whatever your AI model spits out and your actual user—catching hallucinations, bad math, weird formatting, and all the ways LLMs get confidently wrong before anyone sees it. Think of it as the seatbelt for your AI pipeline.
Right now there's not much public info on who's behind it or the numbers they're doing—but the problem they're solving is real. Every company shipping AI to users is living with that knot in their stomach wondering "what if it says something stupid?" Perf is the answer to that question. We'll see more once they get some runway out in the open.
Perf is a control layer for AI outputs that sits between your AI model and your application. It checks every output before it reaches users or downstream systems - verifying structure, grounding, policy compliance, and business-specific constraints; repairing fixable errors like malformed JSON, missing fields, unsupported claims, and constraint violations; and blocking outputs that cannot be trusted with structured diagnostics.
