Why this is canonical

'Model evaluation' (or 'evals') is one of the most precisely defined and actively discussed practices in AI development — it is the technical process by which model capabilities, safety properties, and behavioral characteristics are measured. The .app TLD positions this as a developer and practitioner tool, making it the natural address for evaluation platforms, benchmark runners, and capability assessment products.

Where it fits

A few directions this coordinate opens —

AI model benchmarking and evaluation platforms
A developer-facing product brand for the evaluation infrastructure that AI teams use to measure model performance, compare versions, and certify capabilities before deployment.
AI evaluation platform builders, model benchmarking companies, developer tooling vendors
Regulatory and compliance evaluation
A home for evaluation tooling designed for regulatory compliance — the structured assessment layer that demonstrates model conformance with safety and capability requirements.
Enterprise AI governance platforms, regulated-industry AI teams, government AI evaluation programs

Illustrative, not exhaustive — held as a transferable canonical position, open to the buyer's own use.
