Algorithmic pairing — assembled from recorded fields, not hand-checked

Fiddler AI

Developer tool

Fiddler AuditorDeveloper tool

Source-available library for red-teaming and robustness testing of LLMs, run independently of the hosted Fiddler platform. Fiddler's own page calls it "open-source"; its repository's actual licence is the Elastic License 2.0, which is not an OSI-approved open-source licence (it restricts offering the software as a competing hosted service), so it is recorded here by its real terms rather than the vendor's label.

Guild.ai

Developer tool

Guild Software FactoryDeveloper tool

Agents that plan, build, test and review bounded engineering tasks from issues and hand engineers validated pull requests, running on the Guild control plane; humans approve and merge.
