Where DeepEval stops

Why teams look beyond DeepEval

200+ scorers vs 50+ — more comprehensive evaluation coverage
TypeScript + Python support (DeepEval is Python-only)
300+ attack plugins vs 20+ (DeepTeam) — 17x more red team coverage
Full SaaS dashboard included (Confident AI charges $19.99-$79.99/seat)
77 LLM providers vs ~15 — 5x more model support
50 compliance frameworks vs 6 (adds ISO 42001, India DPDP, HIPAA, GDPR, FedRAMP + 45 more)
5-layer LLM Firewall + Gateway + Agent Tracing — DeepEval has none
