Hi HN! We’re the team behind Fiddler, and we recently built an Agent Cache feature. It works by capturing an LLM request/response pair and, once caching is enabled, serving subsequent matching calls locally so duplicate requests never hit the provider. It’s meant to reduce three pains that show up together in agent development: token cost, feedback-loop latency, and output non-determinism. We’d love to hear your thoughts.

QualGent▲296I built an AI agent that can do mobile app QA after working at Google for years and waiting weeks for QA results. It runs on real devices and uses an ensemble of agents (including computer use) to test like a human. Happy to answer questions and hope it helps app devs ship faster without bugs!

Trails▲81Hey all, Justin here. I previously built Phind, the AI search engine for developers. One of the biggest problems we had there was figuring out what went wrong with bad searches. We had tons of searches per day, but less than 1% of users gave any explicit feedback. So we were either manually digging through searches or making general system improvements and hoping they helped. This problem gets harder with agents. Traces are longer and more complex. It takes more effort to review them, so I'm building a tool that lets you analyze LLM outputs directly to help developers of LLM apps and agents…

Tracciafree tier, from $99/mo▲197AI applications are becoming agents, which has started to take autonomous decisions. There are plenty of tools and platform available to trace, and observe what an agent or llms calls does. They are good in what they do, but tracing and observability isnt enough for AI agents era. We need a solution that can help you observe, evaluate, create run time policies to govern and finally audit the actions of the agent. We built Traccia to solve this problem. The good part, all of these can be achieved by just writing few lines of code. Traccia has an open-sourced sdk that can work with your…

Spec27▲34Hi HN! We’re a team of ML validation specialists and we’ve been building /Spec27, a tool for testing whether AI agents still do their job safely and reliably as models, prompts, tools, and surrounding systems change. We started working on this because a lot of current LLM evaluation work seems aimed at scoring general model behavior, while many teams are deploying systems that have a specific mission to fulfill. Many of the tools also assume you have full access to the agent stack and traces so you can place SDKs and Gateways, but a lot of agents are being created on vendor platforms…

Tracium.ai▲70Hi everyone, thanks for checking out tracium. At work I needed some clarity on how much each agent costs us and how they perform on production so I started looking at existing solutions for this such as LangSmith and LangFuse. Honestly, they felt like they are overcomplicated to integrate and that there should be a simpler solution so I decided to build Tracium. Tracium keeps track of every single AI API call that you make to an LLM provider, with this you can see traces, spans, I/O, tokens in/out, latency. You can compare during A/B testing, see usage from each customer and…

I've spent the past few years building 50+ AI agents in prod (some reached 1M+ sessions/day), and the hardest part was never building them — it was figuring out why they fail. AI agents don't crash. They just quietly give wrong answers. You end up scrolling through traces one by one, trying to find a pattern across hundreds of sessions. Kelet automates that investigation. Here's how it works: 1. You connect your traces and signals (user feedback, edits, clicks, sentiment, LLM-as-a-judge, etc.) 2. Kelet processes those signals and extracts facts about each session 3. It forms hypotheses…

Spelltest framework simulates conversations between AI ‘synthetic users' in an environment to test and refine LLM-based applications. It ensures your app converse with utmost accuracy and relevance. Post-chat, Spelltest assesses responses, providing qualitative and quantitative feedback on performance. Suitable for both chat and completion modes. When to use: - After modifying your prompt. - When your LLM provider updates. - As a CI step for you repo. All feedback and collaborations appreciated!

AgentWatch▲12Hi HN, I’m a solo developer and built AgentWatch to solve a problem I kept running into while building AI agents: preventing runaway loops and unexpected LLM spend before requests reach the model. AgentWatch sits in front of OpenAI, Anthropic, Gemini, Bedrock, Azure OpenAI, Groq, and others to enforce budgets and runtime policies. I’d really appreciate your feedback. If you’re building AI agents, does this solve a problem you’ve experienced? I’d also love to hear what you’d improve or challenge.

EU-Native LLM Observability. Stop Flying Blind on AI Spend.

LLM observability is an absolute must-have for anyone running something in prod (or prod-like). While all the observability startups are great, you're essentially sending all your OpenAI usage history - prompts, generations, chats - to a random third party. So this script deploys a basic proxy in your Azure account, catches all incoming OpenAI requests, stores logs in your own resource group, and comes with visualizations premade (charts, timelines, chat history, cost estimation, etc). Thanks for any thoughts and feedback!

Hi HN, Hugh and Vince here. LLMonitor helps you record, trace & search your LLM queries and chatbot conversations. You can also capture user feedback on your frontend and correlate it with backend LLM queries then use that to fine-tune your own models. The project started has an internal tool in our previous (failed) AI startup. We’re aware the LLM observability space is very crowded. Apart from being open-source, we differentiate with: - Model-agnostic and minimal lock-in (no MITM of requests). - High focus on DX and dashboard clarity. - Support for complex scenarios: e.g. a chatbot that…

I’ve been building LLM tooling for a small VC fund and found myself explaining the same mental model over and over to non-technical people around me: how a stateless LLM becomes a chatbot, how tool use works, what an agent is mechanically, and why context windows shape all of it. I never found a guide that covered that full chain at the level I wanted, so I wrote one. It’s nine short chapters, each building on the last. Deliberately simplified: the goal is a useful mental model, not a textbook. Feedback, corrections, and contributions welcome: github.com/ymyke/aiaiai

Hi HN, I'm Kaushik, and I built Rocketgraph. I believe that while other spaces have caught up to the AI wave, the observability space is still lagging behind, using the same tools and dashboards that we use to analyse logs from human-written code. But now the code is written and debugged by AI, so we need to rethink how we do observability where the observer itself is an AI. The problem that I run into is when an alert fires, I have to manually check the Grafana dashboards and write LogQL queries, which is pretty much like greping. But production usually breaks due to a schema mismatch, or a…
