The Problem

Your AI Behaves in the Demo and Breaks Under Pressure

It shows up once real users arrive with patience, creativity, and bad intent. A model that refuses one blunt request often gives in to the tenth rewording, a role-play, or a poisoned web page.

  1. Rewording

    A refused request goes through on the tenth rewording.

    Rewording

    Automated runs try hundreds of rewordings, so the lucky phrasing turns up in testing.

  2. Web pages

    Content the agent reads carries instructions it then follows.

    Web pages

    Indirect injection tests plant instructions in pages, files, and emails the agent processes.

  3. Agent tools

    A chat talks the agent into sending email or refunds.

    Agent tools

    Every tool call gets attacked, and risky actions gain confirmation steps or tighter scopes.

  4. Model updates

    A provider update quietly reopens an attack you fixed.

    Model updates

    Saved attacks rerun before each release, so old breaks can't return unnoticed.

Your team tested the assistant with twenty friendly questions and it behaved. Then one user spends an evening on it. A role-play prompt gets it to promise a refund policy you don't offer. A web page it summarizes tells it to email the whole conversation to an outside address, and the agent has an email tool. A slow, multi-turn chat walks it past its own safety rules one small step at a time. Screenshots reach social media before anyone on your team has read the logs.

We start with your abuse cases: what would hurt your business, your users, or your brand if the model did it. A tester then attacks each one by hand with multi-turn, role-play, and indirect injection attacks, while automated tools fire hundreds of variations. Every attack that works is saved as a transcript you can replay. You fix the cause, and the same attacks rerun before each prompt or model change, instead of waiting for users to find the next break.

  • Attacks built from abuse cases

    Each campaign targets a harm you named, such as data theft, unsafe actions, or brand damage.

  • Replayable attack transcripts

    Every break is saved with the exact conversation, model version, and settings that produced it.

  • Regression tests after fixes

    Successful attacks become tests that rerun before each prompt, model, or tool change.

Our AI Red Teaming Process

From Rules of Engagement to Retest in Five Clear Steps

You sign off the rules of engagement before any attack, hear about serious breaks the day we find them, and keep the attack set when we finish.

  1. We talk through your model, its tools, its users, and the harms you worry about most. You get a draft scope, the systems we may test, and a fixed price within 2 business days.

What's Included

What You Get With AI Red Team Services

A full record of how your model and its tools can be attacked, ranked by harm, with evidence for each break and tests that keep it closed.

  • Rules of engagement

    A signed document naming the systems, accounts, dates, and limits, so testing stays inside what you authorized.

  • Abuse case attack plan

    Each harm you care about mapped to the attack techniques we will try against it, approved by you first.

  • Manual multi-turn attacks

    Patient, creative attack chats by a tester, including role-play, encoding tricks, and indirect injection.

  • Automated attack runs

    Hundreds of prompt variations per weak spot, with a success rate for each attack type.

  • Findings with transcripts

    Every break with its conversation, model version, severity, business impact, and a recommended fix.

  • Retest and attack test file

    Attacks rerun after your fixes, then handed over as a test file your team reruns before releases.

What Our Clients Say

What Clients Say After Launch

Feedback from teams we have built apps, platforms, and websites for.

We had a pretty specific idea of what we wanted our website to become, but I wasn’t sure how easily we could explain all of it to a development team. There were quite a few moving parts, and we were working toward a deadline, so I expected a few things to get lost along the way. That never really happened. They understood what we were trying to achieve, kept us updated throughout the process, and got everything ready within the agreed timeline. The final site feels much easier to navigate, works beautifully on mobile, and is noticeably smoother for our customers. It was a huge relief seeing the original idea actually turn into the website we had in mind.

Work Culture

Why AI Teams Trust Us to Red Team AI Before Launch

Testing that could embarrass your product needs rules, restraint, and clear evidence. These six habits shape how we run every engagement.

  • Authorized targets only

    We test only models and apps you own or are authorized to test, under signed rules. Third-party model providers' own systems stay out of scope.

  • Same-day alerts for serious breaks

    A break that exposes customer data or triggers a real action reaches you the same day. You don't wait for the final report to start fixing it.

  • Success rates, not lucky shots

    We report how often an attack works across many runs. A fix that takes an attack from frequent to rare is real progress, and the numbers show it.

  • Harmful output handled with care

    Transcripts with offensive or unsafe output are labeled and shared only with the people you name. Nothing from your tests is reused or published.

  • Honest about robustness

    No model is jailbreak-proof, and we won't call yours that. We show what still gets through after fixes, so you decide which risk is acceptable.

  • Scope agreed before the first prompt

    You approve the targets, techniques, and price before testing begins. Systems that appear mid-engagement are quoted separately instead of added quietly.

Good fit

  • Teams launching a public chatbot

    Your chatbot on OpenAI goes live to thousands of customers next month, and one screenshot of it saying something harmful would cost more than the testing.

  • Products with AI agents and tools

    Your agent on Anthropic Claude can browse, send email, or change records, so you need someone to try talking it into those actions for the wrong person.

  • Gen AI builders in regulated markets

    Your healthcare, finance, or HR customers ask for evidence of gen AI red teaming before they sign, and you have nothing written down yet.

  • Buyers comparing testing providers

    You're comparing AI red teaming companies and want manual testers, automated runs, and a fixed price instead of an open-ended retainer.

  • Agencies that build AI products

    You build LLM features on Google Gemini or Meta Llama for clients and want an LLM red team behind your launch checklist, reported under your agency's name.

Not a fit

  • Need a lighter design review

    You want your AI feature's data paths, permissions, and settings reviewed rather than attacked at length. Our AI security assessment covers that faster, lighter review.

  • Need policy, not testing

    You need an AI policy, a risk register, or ISO/IEC 42001 readiness for auditors. Our AI governance consulting page covers that program work.

  • Model you can't authorize

    You want to test a third-party model or platform you have no authorization to attack. We test only systems you own or are allowed to test.

  • Budget under $1,350

    Your budget is under $1,350, or your assistant has no tools and no private data. Running promptfoo or garak yourself against a short abuse list is a sensible first step.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Straight answers on cost, timelines, how engagements are structured, automated testing, and what you keep afterward.

  • Engagements start at $1,350 for one chatbot or assistant with up to 5 abuse cases, 500+ automated attack prompts, and one retest. Apps or agents with tools and documents start at $3,400. A program covering up to 3 apps, with attack tests wired into your CI pipeline, starts at $6,800. You get a fixed quote after the free scoping call.

  • A focused engagement on one app takes 2 to 3 weeks, and agents or several apps take 3 to 5 weeks. Writing the rules and attack plan takes 3 to 5 days, manual attacks 1 to 2 weeks, and automated runs 3 to 5 days. Serious breaks reach you the same day, so fixing can start before the report arrives.

  • Red teaming in AI means a team plays the attacker against an AI system to find harmful behavior before real users do. The term comes from security exercises where a red team attacks and a blue team defends. For AI it covers security harms, such as data theft through a chatbot, and safety harms, such as unsafe advice that damages your brand.

  • Leaders structure engagements around the harms that matter to the business, not around a list of tricks. A typical structure runs: signed rules of engagement, abuse cases ranked by impact, manual attacks, automated variations, a report with success rates, and a retest. The OWASP GenAI Red Teaming Guide and MITRE ATLAS are useful references when you build the attack plan.

  • Choose a provider that attacks by hand as well as with tools, proves every finding with a transcript, and tests agent tools. Indirect injection through documents and web pages should be in scope too. Ask for a sample report before you sign. A tool-only scan finds known jailbreak patterns but misses abuse specific to your business, such as talking an agent into a refund.

  • Automated red teaming improves robustness by testing hundreds of variations of each attack, which shows how often it succeeds instead of whether it worked once. Tools such as PyRIT, garak, and promptfoo rephrase, encode, and chain prompts at scale. Rerunning the same set after each fix or model update shows whether the system is getting harder to break.

  • The best provider for you tests your own abuse cases by hand, proves each break with a transcript, and retests after fixes. Large security firms suit enterprise programs with big budgets, and open-source tools suit teams with time to run them. We fit product teams that want senior manual testing at a fixed price, and we'll say so if another option suits you better.

  • A penetration test looks for flaws in code and infrastructure, while this testing targets how the model behaves under pressure. Pen testers check logins, APIs, and servers. AI red teamers try to make the model leak data, ignore its rules, or misuse its tools through conversation. Most AI products need both, because the model sits on top of an ordinary web app.

  • No. Testing through the application uses the same access your users have, plus test accounts at each permission level. Hosted models from OpenAI, Anthropic, or Google need no weights at all. For open-weight models you host yourself, access to the serving endpoint and its settings helps us test the system prompt and guardrails within the signed rules.

  • You keep the full report, every attack transcript, and the successful attacks as a test file your team can rerun. Every plan includes 30 days of support and one retest after the report, and the program plan adds 2 more retests within 90 days. When you change models or prompts, rerunning the file shows quickly whether old breaks have come back.
