Deterministic code checks provide the foundation of reliable evaluation systems by implementing rule-based validation using standard programming logic, offering millisecond response times and 100% consistency across all evaluation runs without the variability or costs associated with LLM-based evaluation. These checks excel at catching structural issues like JSON schema violations, missing required fields, format inconsistencies, and policy compliance violations that would be expensive or unreliable to detect using AI-based evaluation methods. By implementing deterministic checks first, teams can establish baseline quality gates, reduce LLM costs significantly, and focus human evaluation efforts on semantic judgment tasks where human or LLM expertise truly adds value, creating a cost-effective and scalable evaluation hierarchy.

LLM-as-judge evaluation leverages the natural language understanding capabilities of LLMs to make semantic judgments about content quality, relevance, and correctness in ways that rule-based systems cannot, making it essential for evaluating subjective criteria like answer helpfulness, tone appropriateness, and factual accuracy. By constraining LLM judges to binary TRUE/FALSE outputs rather than scalar scores, teams ensure consistency, reduce ambiguity, and create clear quality gates that can be easily monitored and acted upon in production systems. This approach excels at identifying nuanced failure modes such as missed handoff opportunities, misrepresentations, subtle context violations, and edge cases that require sophisticated reasoning, while providing cost-effective scaling for high-volume evaluation needs through systematic prompt optimization and confidence scoring.
