Lyzr recommends evaluating before you deploy; Omnia makes the evaluation the gate.","headline":"Somebody changed the refund prompt on Friday. Who finds out first?","scene":{"setup":"4pm Friday. A one-line change to how the agent handles refunds.","omnia":"Before it ships, simulated customers run at it through the real tools: one disputing a charge, one who won’t take no, one talking over the agent on the phone. Three of them get refunds they shouldn’t, and the version stays at the gate. A subtler fault would get as far as the first step of the rollout before the metrics pulled it back.","omniaCaps":["selfplay","adversarial","voice-testing","deploy-gate","progressive-rollout","metric-gated-promotion"],"them":"Lyzr’s docs recommend running an evaluation before you deploy.

Omnia is free while you build, the core is free in production, and the enterprise licence is one price per environment per year from £30,000. Nothing is metered."},{"q":"Does Lyzr run in my own cloud?","a":"Yes, Lyzr documents a deployment inside your VPC. Omnia runs in your Kubernetes cluster and deploys the same pack to AWS Bedrock AgentCore, Vertex Agents or Azure AI Foundry."},{"q":"Can Omnia test an agent that’s already running somewhere else?","a":"Yes. Point its scenarios at any endpoint you can reach and run them, wherever the agent is hosted."}]}
