Gentrace
Testing and evaluation for generative AI applications
Gentrace is profiled here as a Evaluation tool for engineering teams. Read about features, pricing, and how it compares to related options in the tools directory.
Description
Gentrace is a testing and evaluation platform for LLM applications, founded in 2020 by Doug Safreno, that helps teams take generative AI into production with confidence. Built on OpenTelemetry, it traces application behavior and runs automated evaluations so engineers, product managers, and QA can measure quality on shared datasets. Its Experiments feature lets cross-functional teams compare prompt and model changes against real test cases, and the platform raised an $8M Series A in 2024 to expand. Teams instrument an application once and then run the same evaluators during development and against live production traffic.
Key Capabilities:
Automated evaluation of prompts and models against test datasets
OpenTelemetry-based tracing of generative application behavior
Experiments that compare changes across versions on shared data
Cross-functional workflows for engineers, product, and QA
Regression testing wired into continuous integration
Error analysis and analytics for production AI behavior
