Years in this space
I've evaluated a lot of these over the years. What stands out here is agent and session tracing — handled better than most — and quick integration via proxy or async SDK. Advanced features require paid tiers is my one real gripe. Worth the time if this is your use case.

Use it every day
Honestly didn't expect to like it this much. Request and response logging is exactly what I needed, and supports multiple LLM providers. I do wish advanced features require paid tiers, but I reach for it almost every day now and it just clicks.
Solid for our team
We rolled this out across the team last quarter and useful prompt and agent debugging tools. User and rate-limit analytics fits neatly into how we already work, and user and rate-limit analytics removed a step we used to do by hand. but it has held up under daily use.
Compared a few options
Evaluated this against two competitors. Where it wins: user and rate-limit analytics and useful prompt and agent debugging tools. On balance the feature set — especially prompt management and versioning — justifies the 5 stars for our use case.
