Vellum's Four Pillars of AI Development

The Challenges of AI Development

AI development is often slowed down by silos between technical and business teams, leading to:

  • Slow development cycles
  • Communication gaps between stakeholders
  • AI systems being shipped with “vibe checks” and not rigorous evals
  • Insufficient monitoring of production use cases
  • Integration challenges between different tools

Vellum addresses these problems by providing a unified platform where all team members play a crucial role in the AI development process.

How Does Vellum Work?

Vellum combines several key capabilities into a single, integrated platform:

For Technical Teams

  • Developer Tools: Full IDE support and API integrations
  • Version Control: Built-in systems for managing prompts, orchestration logic and models
  • Testing Framework: Quantitative testing and performance monitoring. Clear visualization of inputs and outputs at each step of your graphs
  • RAG Pipeline: Document search and retrieval-augmented generation capabilities

For Non-Technical Teams

  • Low-Code Interface: Visual tools for prompt engineering and testing
  • Spreadsheet Integration: Familiar interfaces for content management
  • Collaborative Features: Shared workspaces and feedback tools

For Mixed Teams

There are many ways teams can collaborate in Vellum. Here are just a few common patterns:

  • Subject matter experts write prompts, measure quality, and deploy updates
  • Engineers build integrations and test control flow
  • Changes sync between code and UI to easily share assets and feedback

This flexible approach lets each team member contribute using their preferred tools while maintaining a single source of truth.
