Traccia
Observability, evaluation, governance, and runtime policy enforcement platform for AI agents.
About Traccia
Traccia is an AI agent control plane for observability, evaluation, governance, and runtime policy enforcement of AI agents in production. Instrument once with the open-source OpenTelemetry SDK and send traces to your own stack or the managed Traccia platform. Traccia is organized around four stacked pillars: visibility (capturing a complete trace of every agent run, including sessions, tool calls, prompts, and errors), evaluation, governance, and policy enforcement. Its policy engine can hard-block mid-execution, stopping runaway costs, infinite loops, and PII leaks before they reach production.
Best for
Best use cases
Observe, evaluate, govern, and enforce policies for AI agents in production
Hard-block runaway costs, infinite loops, and PII leaks mid-execution
Use Metadata-only mode on sensitive production workloads, capturing only the data your compliance posture allows
Compare two experiments on the same dataset, review differences in scores, cost, and latency, then decide whether to ship
Compare before choosing
According to the official comparison page, LangSmith works best when using LangChain, while Traccia is OpenTelemetry-native and works across every framework you use today and adopt later, with a switch that can be completed in an afternoon via pip install traccia.
According to the official comparison page, other tools only alert after the fact, while Traccia's policy engine can hard-block mid-execution, stopping runaway costs, infinite loops, and PII leaks before they reach production.
Features
Visibility
Capture a complete trace of every agent run, including sessions, tool calls, prompts, and errors, with support for Python and TypeScript.
Policy Enforcement
A policy engine that can hard-block mid-execution, preventing runaway costs, infinite loops, and PII leaks from reaching production.
PII Redaction
Built-in PII redaction is enabled by default and can be explicitly configured with init(redact_pii=True) to mask emails, US phone numbers, and SSN-like patterns; currently pattern-based, with ML detection on the roadmap.
Data Mode Selection
Offers a Full-trace mode for development and debugging, and a Metadata-only mode for sensitive production workloads, capturing only the data your compliance posture allows.
Experiment Comparison
Select a baseline and a candidate on the same dataset, review differences in scores, cost, and latency, then decide whether to ship.
CLI Tools
Provides a command-line interface for managing configuration, validating settings, and diagnosing connection issues, and manages the SDK's local LLM pricing snapshot used for cost estimation.
