The honest brief

Braintrust

Eval-first: prompts are versioned objects and CI scorers block a merge when quality regresses.

  • Eval workflow as the primary interface
  • CI scorers block merges on regression
  • Dataset versioning + OTel tracing
  • Generous free tier
  • Closed-source SaaS
  • Self-hosting needs Enterprise contract
  • Overkill for tiny single-file eval needs

Future AGI

One of the few fully open-source, self-hostable eval stacks that also bundles a model gateway and runtime guardrails, not just offline scoring.

  • Open-source, Apache-2.0 licensed
  • Self-hostable end-to-end
  • Multimodal evaluation support
  • Bundles guardrails and a gateway
  • Newer, smaller community
  • Broad scope can feel complex
  • Docs still maturing
