What it covers

What is AgentOps?

AgentOps (agent operations) is the practice of running AI agents reliably after deployment. Building an agent is only the first step; keeping it accurate, safe and affordable in production is a discipline of its own. AOPC™ recognizes the professionals who master it.

  • Monitoring and observability

    See what your agents do, which tools they call and where runs fail.

  • Evaluation and quality

    Measure output quality before and after release, and catch drift early.

  • Guardrails and safety

    Keep agents within their permissions, policies and human-approval points.

  • Incident response

    Detect, contain and learn from agent failures in production.

  • Cost and performance

    Keep latency, token spend and reliability on target.

The official exam outline will be published on launch day.
