# Mastra Evals
Evals (and scorers) are [[Mastra AI]]'s quantitative quality-measurement system for agent and workflow outputs. A scorer returns a numerical score (typically 0–1) so you can track quality over time and run comparative experiments.
## Key aspects
- **Live evaluations**: real-time, asynchronous scoring of production outputs
- **Trace evaluations**: historical analysis over recorded [[Mastra Observability|traces]]
- Scorers track trends and power A/B experiments through [[Mastra Studio]]
- Custom and built-in scorers
