Key Features

  • Evals & Experiments

    Run experiments against real datasets and score outputs with LLM judges, code, or humans.

  • Prompt Playground

    Compare prompts and models side by side and iterate on evaluations visually, no code required.

  • Observability & Tracing

    Inspect every trace and tool call, search millions of logs, and track latency, cost, and quality in real time.

  • Datasets

    Convert production traces into evaluation datasets and build regression tests from real failures.

  • Autoevals

    Library of prebuilt scorers (heuristic, statistical, and model-graded) for evaluating AI outputs.

  • Loop

    AI assistant that generates improved prompts, scorers, and datasets from a described optimization goal.

Capabilities

prompt management

Use Cases

  • Pre-ship regression testing

    Evaluate prompt and model changes against datasets to catch regressions before deployment.

  • Production monitoring

    Trace live LLM app behavior and track quality, cost, and latency with online scoring.

  • Collaborative prompt iteration

    Use the playground to compare models and prompts and refine them as a team.
