Eval Frameworks

Build systematic evaluations, not guesswork

Define custom evaluation metrics tailored to your LLM application. Run evals on production data, catch regressions early, and iterate confidently with structured testing instead of ship-and-see.

LangSmith Agent Engineering Platform

Observe, evaluate, and deploy agents with LangSmith. LangSmith is framework-agnostic: trace your preferred framework or integrate LangSmith with any agent stack using our Python, TypeScript, Go, or Java SDKs.

Surface and diagnose undetected issues autonomously to improve agents faster. LangSmith Engine clusters production failures into prioritized issues, finds the root cause in your traces and code, and proposes the fix for your review.

How LangSmith evaluation frameworks work

LangSmith helps teams define, run, monitor, and operationalize evaluations throughout the agent lifecycle.

1

Define your evaluators

Build custom evals with Python, LLM-as-judge, or human feedback. Target the metrics your product actually cares about—accuracy, latency, cost, safety, or domain-specific requirements.

2

Run evals on your data

Test offline on datasets or online against production traffic. Automatically surface regressions and compare performance across prompt versions and model changes.

3

Ship with confidence

Gate deployments on evaluation thresholds. Close the feedback loop from production data to training datasets, turning real usage into continuous improvement.

Customers

Elastic

"Working with LangSmith on the Elastic AI Assistant had a significant positive impact on the overall pace and quality of our development and shipping experience. We couldn't have delivered the product experience our customers now have without LangSmith—and we couldn't have done it at the same pace without it."

James Spiteri, Director of Security Product Management at Elastic

Rakuten

"What we really needed was a more structured way to test new approaches, something better than just shipping and seeing what happened. LangSmith gave us a scientific, structured way to understand what was actually working. We could run pairwise evaluations and understand why accuracy jumped from 70% to 80%. Our engineers love the intuitive debugging experience."

Yusuke Kaji, General Manager of AI for Business Development at Rakuten
