Trace every OpenTelemetry run

Full span traces

See the complete execution tree of every OpenTelemetry run — nested spans, tool calls, and LLM requests on one timeline.

Cost & latency analytics

Track token usage, cost, and latency for every OpenTelemetry call, broken down by model, prompt, or metadata.

Rich metadata & search

Tag, score, and search every request. Filter production traffic by content, model, status, or custom key-value pairs.

OpenTelemetry-native

OpenTelemetry streams traces straight to PromptLayer's OTLP endpoint — no proxy in your request path, no SDK rewrite.

Debug in the playground

Open any OpenTelemetry trace in the Playground to reproduce, tweak, and fix the exact prompt that failed.

Turn traces into evals

Promote real OpenTelemetry runs into versioned datasets and run evaluation pipelines to catch regressions.

LLM Observability

Understand what your OpenTelemetry app is doing

OpenTelemetry is the open standard for tracing. PromptLayer speaks it natively, so any instrumented app can stream traces with no proprietary SDK.

See the full picture

Every OpenTelemetry run becomes a searchable, replayable trace — inputs, outputs, models, and timing.

Find the bottleneck

Pinpoint the slow span or expensive model call dragging down your OpenTelemetry pipeline.

Catch failures fast

Surface errors, failed tool calls, and low-quality outputs before your users do.

Ship with confidence

Connect traces to evaluation pipelines so every change to your OpenTelemetry app is tested.
