# Faithfulness

This Quick Start notebook introduces Fiddler Guardrails, an enterprise solution that safeguards LLM applications from risks like hallucinations, toxicity, and jailbreaking attempts. Learn how to implement the **FTL Faithfulness** Model, which evaluates factual consistency between AI-generated responses and their source context in RAG applications.

{% hint style="info" %}
**This tutorial covers FTL Faithfulness** (`ftl_response_faithfulness`) — Fiddler's proprietary Fast Trust Model for real-time guardrail use cases. For the LLM-as-a-Judge RAG Faithfulness evaluator used in Agentic Monitoring and Experiments, see the [RAG Health Metrics Tutorial](https://docs.fiddler.ai/developers/tutorials/experiments/rag-health-metrics-tutorial).
{% endhint %}

Inside you'll find:

* Step-by-step implementation instructions
* Code examples for evaluating response accuracy
* Practical demonstration of hallucination detection
* Sample inputs and outputs with score interpretation
