Monitor your OpenAI agents with Datadog LLM Observability

This Datadog article explains how annotating LLM traces—adding metadata about inputs, outputs, and context—is crucial for understanding and improving LLM performance.

Datadog's LLM Observability features facilitate this annotation process and provide tools to analyze the resulting data.
