Shipping AI Features to Production
FreeLearn the engineering practices that separate AI features that work reliably in production from ones that become liabilities. This course is for software engineers and product engineers who are building LLM-powered features and want to ship them with confidence. It assumes familiarity with software development and basic LLM API usage. No ML background required. You will learn how to design production-grade prompts, build evaluation systems, set up observability and cost controls, handle failures gracefully, and deploy AI features with the same discipline you apply to any critical piece of infrastructure.

What Makes AI Features Different in Production
Understand the unique failure modes of AI features, why they require different engineering practices, and how to use the production readiness framework before you write a line of eval code.

Observability, Monitoring, and Cost Management
Build visibility into your AI features so problems are caught before users report them. Learn what to log for every LLM call, how to set up alerts for latency, errors, and silent drift, and how to manage token costs systematically.
