Amazon Connect expanded its AI agent monitoring with eight metrics including goal success rate, faithfulness score, and tool selection accuracy. These metrics help quantify how effectively AI agents resolve requests, assess response reliability, and detect contextual inaccuracies or hallucinations during customer engagements.

Metrics are accessible via the AI Agent Performance dashboard or API endpoints for integration with analytics workflows. Customer feedback collection through thumbs up/down ratings further supports evaluation. This functionality is available in all AWS regions supporting Amazon Connect AI Agents, enabling organizations to iteratively refine AI-driven customer service.
