Distributional provides an AI testing platform that automatically creates statistical tests for models and applications, organizes results in a collaborative dashboard, and enables test repositories, triage, and recalibration. The product can be deployed on-premises or used via a managed plan and integrates with common alerting and database tools. Founder Scott Clark, formerly Intel’s GM of AI software and co‑founder of SigOpt, built the company to address non‑determinism and observability challenges he encountered in enterprise AI.
