An eval check is a quick but pointed assessment of someone's performance, reasoning, or output — running the numbers on how they actually did rather than how they think they did. Borrowed from AI/machine learning culture where 'eval' means evaluation benchmarking, it migrated into everyday language as slang for any blunt, honest appraisal. Did your plan work? Someone's running an eval check. Did you actually ace that test? Your friends are doing an eval check on your confidence. Cuts through self-assessment bias with refreshing directness.
Before you say the pitch went well, let's do an eval check — they smiled but never asked for a follow-up.
