LLM Observability
Tracing every prompt, tool call, and token in production.
/ quick answer
LLM observability (Langfuse, LangSmith, Helicone, Arize) captures inputs, outputs, latency, cost, and errors per call. Non-negotiable once you have real users. Tracing every prompt, tool call, and token in production.
What is LLM Observability?
LLM observability (Langfuse, LangSmith, Helicone, Arize) captures inputs, outputs, latency, cost, and errors per call. Non-negotiable once you have real users.
What is an example of LLM Observability?
A trace shows the exact chunks retrieved, the prompt sent, and the answer scored by an LLM-judge.
Why does LLM Observability matter for AI and automation?
Tracing every prompt, tool call, and token in production. It connects to the workflows, prompts and tool stacks linked on this page, so you can move from definition to execution without leaving Onexial.
