What Openlayer does
Openlayer is an AI Governance Control Plane for Regulated Enterprises, combining policy enforcement, continuous evaluation, and compliance automation in one platform. It helps enterprises prove to regulators and boards that AI policies are enforced in production, generating audit evidence as a byproduct. The platform supports both traditional ML and GenAI systems, handling tasks from data-quality detection to automating comprehensive model evaluations with full traceability across RAG, agents, and complex multi-step workflows. Openlayer aims to bridge the gap between documenting governance and tracing model actions after the fact, enabling safe, reliable, and compliant AI.
Products
- LLM ObservabilityProvides full visibility into LLM pipelines, tracing system behavior, monitoring cost and latency, and catching failures.
- LLM EvaluationOffers rigorous evaluation for GenAI and LLMs, allowing users to test every prompt, trace every response, and validate every output.

- Model MonitoringMonitors performance, detects drift, and catches production issues before they impact users, offering a modern monitoring layer for ML systems.
- AI Agent ObservabilityProvides observability purpose-built for agentic systems, allowing users to understand every action, chain, and decision, detect risks, and maintain control.
- GenAI TestingProvides tools to evaluate generative AI systems across edge cases, hallucinations, prompt quality, and more before they reach users.
- LLM Experiment TrackingGives GenAI teams visibility into prompt iterations, model settings, and evaluation results in one place.
- ML Experiment TrackingHelps ML teams log, compare, and analyze experiments to move faster and ship smarter.
- Model ValidationEnsures models are accurate, fair, and reliable before they go live.
- AI Data ValidationValidates datasets before training or inference, catching errors, drift, and anomalies early.
