Giskard provides open-source and enterprise tools for evaluating, testing, and red-teaming LLM agents and AI applications. It is suited to teams building RAG systems, safety evaluation programs, and production AI workflows that need more than a single benchmark. The open-source Python library supports local testing, while the product also offers web, API, and self-hosted access. Its scope covers behavioral checks, vulnerability scanning, RAG quality and groundedness evaluation, dataset management, scheduled evaluations, and team collaboration.

The Free plan costs $0 and includes the open-source library, local deployment, a basic LLM vulnerability scan, a basic RAG evaluation report, and community support. Enterprise adds AI agent security red teaming, customizable evaluation metrics, human-in-the-loop reviews, CI/CD integration, hybrid deployment options, and compliance support for SOC 2, HIPAA, and GDPR. This creates a clear path from local evaluation to centralized workflows for organizations operating AI systems in production. Teams can also use LLM-as-a-judge checks with custom prompts, store and version datasets, schedule evaluations, and compare results.

Giskard is a strong fit for engineering and safety teams that want an open-source starting point with a broader enterprise path. Its combination of RAG evaluation, automated vulnerability scanning, custom checks, and pytest or GitHub Actions workflows supports recurring evaluation rather than one-off review. Teams that need human review, advanced security red teaming, or hybrid deployment should consider Enterprise. Smaller teams looking only for a lightweight evaluation utility may find the wider feature set unnecessary, while the Free plan is better suited to basic local testing and initial assessment.
