The missing step between “the demo works” and “ship it.”

Determina is built by Alankrit Verma. He has watched too many AI changes go out on a good demo and a gut call. This is the tool he kept wishing someone would build: run the change against a world that looks like production, read the evidence, then decide.

why this team

We have been on the launch calls where nobody could say what the model would actually do.

Alankrit built recommender infrastructure at PlayStation and has spent years working on ML systems and evaluation. The pattern was the same everywhere: offline metrics say one thing, production says another, and the release call gets made on gut feel. Determina exists so that call can be made on evidence instead.

how we work

One founder, zero layers.
