Sovara brings your benchmark results and agent traces together. Start with the overall result, compare it with an earlier evaluation, and open individual samples to understand what changed.

​
Record your first evaluation

Your code runs the benchmark and grades the answers; Sovara records and displays the results. Start with the SDKs to connect your agent. The Python SDK reference describes how to create an evaluation run and log sample results. Each evaluation run groups one execution of your benchmark. Each sample is an individual agent run with its own input, output, verdict, and trace. Create a new evaluation run each time you execute the benchmark so you can compare results over time. Record your samples’ inputs and outputs, and supply a correctness verdict from your evaluator. You can also log custom fields on individual samples or on the whole evaluation run, such as the dataset version or an aggregate score.

​
Open your evaluation results

Open your project and select Evaluations in the sidebar under Track performance.
Sovara Evaluations view with Run A and Run B selectors, an accuracy trend, outcome changes, latency comparison, and a table of evaluation runs.
The page has two parts: charts for tracking and comparing performance at the top, and a table of evaluation runs below. With one evaluation, you can inspect its samples and accuracy. Record at least two to compare them. Use the table to find an evaluation by its date and logged fields:
  • Open Filters to search dates and logged fields, filter by git commit, or narrow the accuracy range.
  • Use Columns to choose which fields appear. Click a column heading to sort the table.
  • Click an evaluation row to open its samples.

​
Compare two evaluation runs

At the top of the page, choose your baseline in Run A and the evaluation you want to assess in Run B. Use evaluations of the same benchmark with the same grading criteria for a meaningful comparison. The summary shows accuracy for each evaluation, p95 latency, and the number of matched samples. The charts help you answer three questions.

​
Has accuracy changed over time?

Accuracy over all evaluation runs shows the history of your project’s evaluations. Hover over a point to see its date, accuracy, and sample count. The selected Run A and Run B are highlighted. By default, accuracy is the share of graded samples marked correct; ungraded samples are excluded. A valid evaluation-level accuracy value logged through the SDK overrides that calculation. This is why the summary accuracy can differ from the outcomes of the matched samples shown beside it.

​
Which samples improved or regressed?

Outcome changes for matched samples separates the results into four groups: Click a group to open those samples in Run B. Start with Regressed to investigate new failures, then check Fixed to see where your change helped.
Samples match across evaluations by their exact recorded input text. Keep benchmark inputs consistent between runs. Inputs that are missing or occur more than once within either evaluation are excluded from matching. The four outcome groups include only matches with correctness verdicts in both runs.

​
Did the agent get faster or slower?

In Latencies of matched samples, each dot represents a matched sample with recorded runtime in both evaluations. The horizontal axis is Run A; the vertical axis is Run B. Dots below the diagonal are faster in Run B; dots above it are slower. Hover over a dot to see the sample labels and both runtimes. Green dots show fixed samples and red dots show regressions. Grey dots show unchanged results, with a separate legend entry when ungraded matches are present. The p95 summary highlights the slower end of the runtime distribution, using available runtimes from matched samples in each evaluation.

​
Inspect a sample and its trace

Open an evaluation row, or click an outcome group in the comparison, to see the sample table. It shows inputs, outputs, runtime, correctness, and any custom fields you logged. Correct and Incorrect mark the verdicts; a dash means no verdict is available. Use Filters to narrow the samples by content, input, output, runtime, or correctness. If you arrived from an outcome group, the list is already limited to that group. Use Reset in the filters to return to all samples. The Correct last run? column refers to the preceding evaluation, which may be different from the Run A you selected in the comparison. Click a sample row to open its trace. Follow the model and tool calls to find where the answer went wrong—for example, a retrieval that missed relevant information or a tool call that used the wrong arguments. See Manual inspection for a guide to reading traces.

​
Evaluate your next change

Use what you learned from the failed samples to make a targeted change to your agent. Run the benchmark again from your code, then return to Evaluations and select the new evaluation as Run B. Check both the fixes and regressions, and compare latency alongside accuracy.
