Build, deploy, and govern production-ready agentic AI workflows
Open-source agent observability that catches failures before your users do
Build, deploy, and govern production-ready agentic AI workflows
A visual canvas where retrieval, branching, tool calls, human review, and model steps form a visible, testable execution path you can debug and hand off.
Create agents through chat or manual configuration, give them skills, tools, and knowledge, then ship them as apps, embeds, or reusable nodes inside workflows.
Build repeatable ingestion pipelines for documents, sites, and drives, with extraction, cleaning, chunking, indexing, and retrieval testing before you go live.
Install model providers, tools, data sources, and MCP integrations once and reuse approved plugins across every app in the workspace.
Open-source agent observability that catches failures before your users do
Automatically records LLM calls, tool calls, sub-agents, tokens and cost, then shows them as a readable transcript with a cost heatmap.
A custom analysis model reviews every run to surface failure modes you never defined, then clusters similar failures into patterns for fast triage.
Convert error clusters into eval datasets and re-run them after each release to catch regressions before they reach users.
Get notified about new failure clusters in Slack and ask the Laminar agent questions about your traces from the same channel.
