Traceloop’s OpenLLMetry is an open source project that allows you to easily start monitoring and debugging the execution of your LLM app.
Traceloop’s non-intrusive instrumentation combined with Prisma AIRS AI Gateway’s intelligent gateway provides comprehensive observability without modifying your application code, while adding routing intelligence, caching, and failover capabilities.

Why Traceloop + the AI Gateway?

Non-Intrusive Monitoring

Automatic instrumentation without changing your application code

OpenTelemetry Native

Built on industry-standard OpenTelemetry for maximum compatibility
