Open-source library for evaluating and tracking LLM applications with feedback functions for groundedness, relevance, and safety.
Measures the quality of your AI's answers — tracks groundedness, relevance, and whether your AI is making things up.
TruLens is an open-source evaluation and tracing framework designed to help developers objectively measure the quality and effectiveness of AI agents and LLM-powered applications. Rather than relying on subjective "vibes-based" assessment, TruLens provides quantitative metrics for critical components of an app's execution flow—including retrieved context, tool calls, plans, and generated outputs—enabling teams to expedite experiment evaluation at scale across agents, RAG pipelines, summarization tasks, and more.
TruLens is built for AI engineers, ML practitioners, and product teams who need to systematically evaluate and iterate on their LLM applications before shipping to production. The platform offers an extensible library of built-in evaluation metrics such as groundedness, context relevance, and coherence, while also allowing users to define custom feedback functions tailored to their specific use cases. By surfacing where applications have weaknesses, TruLens informs iteration on prompts, hyperparameters, model selection, and retrieval strategies.
The framework now supports OpenTelemetry-compatible tracing, making it easy to integrate into existing observability stacks. Developers can instrument their LLM apps with minimal code changes, compare different application configurations on a metrics leaderboard, and select the best-performing variant. TruLens integrates with popular frameworks and LLM providers, and its open-source nature under the TruEra umbrella ensures transparency and community-driven development.

TruLens provides a library of pre-built feedback functions that automatically score LLM outputs on metrics like groundedness, context relevance, and coherence. These functions can use LLM-based evaluation or custom logic, and are extensible so teams can add domain-specific metrics. This replaces manual review with scalable, repeatable quality measurement.
TruLens supports OpenTelemetry for distributed tracing of AI agent and LLM application execution flows. Traces capture tool calls, retrieval steps, planning decisions, and model interactions, and can be exported to any OTel-compatible backend. This enables deep debugging of complex agentic workflows and integration with existing observability infrastructure.
The built-in leaderboard allows developers to compare different LLM application configurations across multiple evaluation metrics simultaneously. Teams can evaluate variations in prompts, models, hyperparameters, and retrieval strategies to objectively select the best-performing configuration based on data rather than subjective assessment.
TruLens is specifically designed to evaluate and trace AI agents, capturing the full execution flow including planning steps, tool calls, and intermediate reasoning. This provides visibility into where agents succeed or fail, enabling targeted improvements to agent behavior and reliability before production deployment.
Beyond built-in metrics, TruLens offers an extensible framework for defining custom evaluation criteria tailored to specific use cases. The platform surfaces weaknesses in application performance to inform iteration on prompts, hyperparameters, and architecture, creating a tight feedback loop between evaluation and improvement.
