Overview
This guide walks you through setting up Velatir from scratch. By the end, you will have agents evaluating AI interactions and a notification channel connected for review tasks.Create Your Organisation
Sign up at app.velatir.com and create your organisation. Your organisation is the top-level container for all workspaces, members, and configuration.Give your organisation a name that matches your company or team. You automatically become an Administrator with full access to all settings.
Create a Workspace
From your organisation overview, click Create Workspace. Workspaces let you separate AI monitoring by team, department, or project.Each workspace has its own members, agent configuration, and sessions. Start with one workspace for your pilot team. You can add more later.
Set Up a Data Source
Connect a data source so Velatir can start capturing AI interactions.The fastest option is the browser extension. It monitors interactions across 4000+ AI platforms with no code changes required.
Browser Extension
Install the Chrome or Edge extension and start capturing traces immediately.
TypeScript SDK
Integrate directly into your application for programmatic trace capture.
View Agent Evaluations
Once traces start flowing in, navigate to Sessions in your workspace. You will see each interaction grouped into sessions with its status.Click on any session to see its traces, and click a trace to see the agent evaluations. Your active agents, such as Data Protection and Gatekeeper, evaluate each trace independently.
Configure Agent Behaviour
Go to Agents in your workspace settings. Each agent can operate in one of two roles:
Start with agents in the Observer role to understand your AI usage patterns. Move agents to Enforcer as you gain confidence.
| Role | Behaviour |
|---|---|
| Observer | Watches and reports only. No action taken on traces. |
| Enforcer | Can block traces or require approval before they proceed. |
Connect a Notification Channel
Go to Channels and connect where your team already works. When an agent escalates a trace, reviewers receive a notification and can respond directly.Email
Slack
Approve and reject directly in Slack.
Microsoft Teams
Use adaptive cards for quick decisions.
Review and respond via email.
