Access and cost
Get Embedded Model Evaluators — Not published: neither party has disclosed a price, and engagements are scoped individually by Accenture.
Evidence it works
- Announces a team of embedded evaluators working alongside Anthropic’s internal teams to red-team models, run alignment assessments and test safeguards. — source
- States each company expects to invest at least $1 billion over five years in AI safety. — source
- Says Accenture will draw on Faculty, the applied AI company it acquired, for model testing and evaluation expertise. — source
Practical limits
- Neither party has published evaluation results, so the arrangement’s effect on model safety is not yet evidenced.
- It is an enterprise services engagement rather than a product a team can buy or self-serve.
- Scoped to Anthropic’s models; it is not a certification other labs or buyers can rely on.
