Sutro can now generalize the rules based on your feedback.
What is an AI Function?
A reliable AI Function repeatedly and consistently makes the same decisions as a human expert would on a given task. Below are examples of AI Functions our customers are building.
Classifier
Score a lead based on your team’s criteria.
Judge
Give pass or fail assignments on agent traces.
Extractor
Remove personally identifiable information from medical records.
Entity resolver
Determine whether two businesses are the same.
Matcher
Determine whether a candidate is a good fit for a role.
Router
Send support tickets to the right team or person.
Building an AI Function isn’t about scaling general intelligence. It’s about teaching a model exactly how your organization wants a task performed.
How are AI Functions run?
AI Functions can be run continuously as new inputs arrive, or in batch mode for large datasets.
In production today
Sutro is powering critical, production AI workloads with many happy customers today. Sutro processes millions of decisions, and billions of tokens per month, often in environments with strict data privacy and security requirements.
Applied AI teams
Agents, evals, matchers, and other production AI workflows.
Data & ML engineers
Data enrichment, entity resolution, classification, and extraction.
Training data providers
Data filtering, labeling, tagging, and dataset preparation.

Frequently asked
Is this an evals product?
Yes and no. Sutro helps evaluate quality and reliability, but unlike other evals products, it directly influences model/agent behavior from feedback.
Can Sutro use image inputs and other modalities? Can it call tools?
Yes. Sutro supports images, PDFs, and web search capabilities today. Additional modalities and custom tool calling are available on a per-request basis.
What models does Sutro Functions use?
Functions are typically model-agnostic, and we support a mix of open-source and proprietary models. It's common that small-open source models outperform larger proprietary models when building AI Functions. Sutro helps automatically find the best model for your needs.
Can I self-host Sutro? Do you support BYOC and BYOK?
Yes. Sutro can be managed as SaaS or entirely self-hosted. You can bring your own provider keys and cloud credentials in either case.
How does Sutro compare to prompt engineering, fine-tuning, or RL?
AI Functions accumulate edge cases by nature of the volume they run at and the diversity of possible inputs. Sutro systematically discovers these edge cases and learns generalized rules optimized to cover as many of them as possible. Manual prompt engineering is typically not scalable in these scenarios.
Sutro Functions are designed to be extremely data efficient and portable. Functions learn in-context, meaning no weight updates are needed and can easily be updated. Fine-tuning and reinforement learning typically require more data and require retraining for updates, making them more rigid and less portable.
