Open-source agent observability that catches failures before your users do

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.
Open-source workflow automation built for AI agents and technical teams
Build automations with a visual node editor, then insert JavaScript or Python code nodes when you need custom logic.
Connect to 500+ native services, any REST API via HTTP nodes, and any agent or coding assistant through MCP.
Run agents alongside regular steps, inspect every decision, and add structured inputs, guardrails and human approval steps.
Watch workflows execute live, open past runs, replay a run with mocked data and re-run just the step that failed.
