# OpenObserve

> Updated 2026-09-10 · type: tool · category: ai-infrastructure · status: active · rev 1

OpenObserve is an open-source, OpenTelemetry-native observability platform with an AI/LLM layer for agent cost, tokens, latency and traces.

- Open source: yes (AGPL-3.0)
- Self-hostable: yes
- Pricing model: freemium
- Best for: Teams running agent/LLM workloads who need self-hosted observability — cost, latency and failure tracing — instead of a hosted APM bill.

---

Open-source, OpenTelemetry-native observability platform (Rust): unified logs, metrics and traces with a dedicated AI/LLM layer that tracks cost, tokens, latency percentiles and error rates across models, plus agent graphs, session traces and evaluation/quality scoring — the monitoring layer for a self-hosted agent stack, an alternative to hosted APM.

## Provenance
