Unique: Provides batch evaluation and historical analysis of LLM traces stored in the platform, enabling cost analysis, performance trends, and compliance auditing. Supports SQL-like queries on trace data to aggregate metrics by model, provider, user, or custom dimensions.
vs alternatives: More comprehensive than real-time dashboards because it enables historical trend analysis and compliance auditing, whereas real-time dashboards focus on current behavior and require manual aggregation for historical analysis.
Auto-instruments AI frameworks (LangChain, LangGraph, AutoGen, CrewAI) to capture framework-level operations: chain execution, tool calls, agent reasoning steps, and memory interactions. Instruments at the framework abstraction layer (e.g., LangChain's Runnable interface, LangGraph's StateGraph) to create hierarchical spans that represent the logical flow of AI applications. Automatically correlates framework operations with underlying LLM and vector database calls.
Unique: Instruments AI frameworks at the abstraction layer (LangChain Runnable interface, LangGraph StateGraph) rather than individual LLM calls, creating hierarchical spans that represent the logical flow of multi-step AI applications. Automatically correlates framework operations with underlying LLM, tool, and vector database calls in a single trace.
vs alternatives: More comprehensive than framework-specific logging because it integrates with OpenTelemetry standards and correlates with LLM/vector database telemetry, whereas LangChain's built-in callbacks are framework-specific and don't integrate with broader observability infrastructure.
Collects GPU metrics (utilization, memory usage, temperature, power consumption) from NVIDIA GPUs using the OpenTelemetry GPU Collector and exposes them as OpenTelemetry metrics. Integrates with the Python SDK to correlate GPU metrics with LLM inference operations, enabling visibility into hardware resource consumption during model serving. Supports Kubernetes environments via the OpenLIT Operator for automated GPU metric collection across clusters.
