Phoenix is an open-source AI observability platform designed for experimentation, evaluation, and troubleshooting. It provides:
- Tracing - Trace your LLM application's runtime using OpenTelemetry-based instrumentation.
- Evaluation - Leverage LLMs to benchmark your application's performance using response and retrieval evals.
- Datasets - Create versioned datasets of examples for experimentation, evaluation, and fine-tuning.
- Experiments - Track and evaluate changes to prompts, LLMs, and retrieval.
- Playground- Optimize prompts, compare models, adjust parameters, and replay traced LLM calls.
- Prompt Management- Manage and test prompt changes systematically using version control, tagging, and experimentation.
- PXI (Built-in Agent) - Debug traces, iterate on prompts, and navigate Phoenix with an opt-in, permission-gated agent built into the product.
Phoenix is vendor and language agnostic with out-of-the-box support for popular frameworks (OpenAI Agents SDK, Claude Agent SDK, LangGraph, Vercel AI SDK, Mastra, CrewAI, LlamaIndex, DSPy) and LLM providers (OpenAI, Anthropic, Google GenAI, Google ADK, AWS Bedrock, OpenRouter, LiteLLM, and more). For details on auto-instrumentation, check out the OpenInference project.
Phoenix runs practically anywhere, including your local machine, a Jupyter notebook, a containerized deployment, or in the cloud.
Installation
Install Phoenix via pip or conda
pip install arize-phoenixPhoenix container images are available via Docker Hub and can be deployed using Docker or Kubernetes. Arize AI also provides cloud instances at app.phoenix.arize.com.

Security & Privacy
We take data security and privacy very seriously. For more details, see our Security and Privacy documentation.
Telemetry
By default, Phoenix collects basic web analytics (e.g., page views, UI interactions) to help us understand how Phoenix is used and improve the product. None of your trace data, evaluation results, or any sensitive information is ever collected.
You can opt-out of telemetry by setting the environment variable: PHOENIX_TELEMETRY_ENABLED=false
