Our Story

We built the observability tool we wished we had

ModelTrace Observatory was born from a simple frustration: the tools that worked for traditional software did not work for AI. We set out to close the observability gap for production AI systems.

The problem we saw

AI teams were shipping models to production at breakneck speed, but observability lagged behind. Traditional APM tools tracked latency and error codes, yet they said nothing about whether an LLM was hallucinating, drifting, or being manipulated by adversarial prompts.

When incidents happened, engineers spent days stitching together logs, trying to reproduce non-deterministic failures with no tracing, no eval metrics, and no historical context.

What we built

ModelTrace Observatory is a purpose-built observability platform for production AI. It captures every request, traces every decision step, evaluates quality in real time, and alerts the right team before regressions reach users.

Our team combines deep experience in MLOps, site-reliability engineering, and developer tooling. We understand the unique challenges of operating AI because we have lived them ourselves.

Our Mission

Make every AI system in production observable, safe, and accountable

We are on a mission to ensure that organizations deploying AI can operate with the same confidence they have in their traditional software stacks — full visibility, proactive alerts, and instant root-cause analysis.

Our Values

Principles that guide everything we build

Radical Transparency

We believe every AI decision in production should be traceable. Opacity is a liability; visibility is a superpower.

Safety by Default

Guardrails should be built into the monitoring layer, not bolted on as an afterthought. We surface safety risks before they become incidents.

Engineer-First Design

We build for the on-call engineer at 2 AM. Every feature is designed to reduce mean-time-to-resolution, not add dashboard complexity.

Signal Over Noise

More data is not always better data. We focus on surfacing the metrics and alerts that actually change outcomes.

Join us on the mission

Whether you are looking to monitor your first model or operate AI at enterprise scale, we would love to help.
