🌈 Why Latitude?
Latitude shows you what will break next in your AI Agent and helps you fix it before users notice.
- Issue-centric: failed traces grouped into tracked issues, with status, size, and trend.
- Human-aligned evals: evals built automatically from your team's judgments, with an alignment score that tracks drift from human judgment over time.
- Agent-native traces: multi-turn sessions, tool calls, and full execution paths in one view.
- Semantic search: find any trace by meaning, exact matches, or roughly similar sentences. No sampling, 100% of traces are searchable.
- Issue alerts: get notified the moment a new issue is detected or an existing one escalates. Connect Slack, email, or webhooks.
- MCP server: everything you can do in the Latitude UI, now available from your coding agent via MCP.

⚡ Quick start
You can use Latitude for free, including 20K credits/month, 30-day data retention, and unlimited seats.
Sign up at latitude.so and grab your API key and project slug.
Recommended: ask your coding agent
Paste this prompt into Claude Code, Cursor, Windsurf, Codex, OpenCode, or another coding agent:
Read the Latitude Telemetry AI skill from https://raw.githubusercontent.com/latitude-dev/skills/refs/heads/main/skills/latitude-telemetry/SKILL.md and add tracing to this application.
Manual TypeScript setup
npm install @latitude-data/telemetry
This example uses OpenAI; replace it with the LLM SDK your app already imports.
import { Latitude } from "@latitude-data/telemetry";
import OpenAI from "openai";
const latitude = new Latitude({
apiKey: process.env.LATITUDE_API_KEY!,
project: process.env.LATITUDE_PROJECT_SLUG!,
instrumentations: { openai: OpenAI },
});
const client = new OpenAI();
await client.chat.completions.create({
model: "gpt-4o",
messages: [{ role: "user", content: "Hello" }],
});
await latitude.shutdown();
Every supported LLM call now shows up as a trace in Latitude. Use capture() at request, conversation, or agent boundaries when you want to add user IDs, session IDs, tags, or metadata.
Python and any OpenTelemetry-compatible runtime are also supported. Full setup, provider guides, and OTel passthrough are in the Start tracing guide.
🔌 Integrations
Latitude is provider-agnostic. Telemetry works out of the box with most model providers and frameworks (OpenAI, Anthropic, Bedrock, Vercel AI SDK, LangChain, and more), plus any OTLP-compatible backend.
See the full integration list for setup instructions.
✳️ With Claude Code
Building inside Claude Code? We have a dedicated package that captures full session transcripts as traces. Check out docs.
npx -y @latitude-data/claude-code-telemetry install
Works in the terminal, the Desktop app, and IDE extensions.
