Seeing what your LLM app actually did.
LangSmith traces every call in an LLM application — prompts\, responses\, latency\, cost — and provides evaluation tooling so you can measure whether a change made things better.
Without this you are guessing\, which is why it became close to standard for teams running LLM apps in production. It works with or without LangChain. Pricing is per seat plus usage beyond included traces\, which can surprise you at volume.
