| description.long | Phoenix provides OpenTelemetry-based instrumentation for LLM applications, AI-powered evaluation of model outputs and retrieval quality, and systematic prompt management with versioning. It supports both self-hosted and cloud deployment and integrates with major LLM frameworks and development tools. | Platform for observability and analysis of production AI agent systems, featuring distributed tracing across multi-agent workflows, built-in evaluation APIs for model and prompt testing, and safety guardrails with pre-built scorers for toxicity, bias, PII detection, and hallucinations. |
