Reviewer scorecard
“Best open-source LLM observability. Traces, prompt versioning, and evals in one tool. Self-hosting option is a must.”
“Eliminates 90% of server state management boilerplate. Caching, refetching, and mutations just work.”
“Open source means no vendor lock-in. The tracing UI is clean and the integration with LangChain and Vercel AI SDK is seamless.”
“Solved server state management so well that it changed how React apps are built. The devtools are excellent.”
“LLM observability is becoming as essential as APM. Langfuse is the Grafana of AI — open source and community-driven.”
“TanStack Query's multi-framework support and the broader TanStack ecosystem are defining modern web data management.”
