helicone
Basic Information
Helicone is an open-source LLM developer platform focused on observability, logging, and management for applications that use large language models. The repo provides code and deployment options to capture and inspect LLM requests and responses across many providers, enabling developers to route API calls through a Helicone gateway or use one-line integration code to log activity. It supports both a hosted cloud offering and self-hosted deployment via Docker and Helm. The project targets debugging, tracing, session inspection, prompt versioning, automated evaluation, and analytics for chatbots, agents, and document pipelines. The README documents supported integrations, self-host architecture components, and quick-start examples for connecting OpenAI and other providers. The repository also includes tooling for exports, data ownership, and enterprise features such as compliance and production Helm charts.
