Capabilities That Make SigNoz the Default Choice for AI Companies

Capabilities that AI Companies Need Most

Features that help you debug non-deterministic LLM outputs, control inference costs, track business outcomes, and meet compliance requirements

Span-Level Alerting

Set alerts on specific spans within a trace to isolate internal latency from third-party provider slowness. Configure thresholds on individual service spans rather than entire trace duration, so you only get notified when your code is slow, not when external APIs degrade.
APM to Logs

Trace Funnels

Track multi-step workflows like "calls dialed" to "leads qualified" for voice agents, or visualize drop-off rates across your AI agent pipelines to identify where users abandon flows.Read Documentation

MCP Server for Agentic SRE

Enable AI agents to query your telemetry via Model Context Protocol. Agents can debug themselves, create dashboards, or perform root-cause analysis by importing telemetry data directly.Read Documentation

Self-Hosted / BYOC Compliance

Deploy on your infrastructure to meet HIPAA/GDPR compliance requirements. Keep sensitive prompt data on-premise for healthcare, banking, and government contracts.

Monitoring Model Token Usage

Track token usage and costs per model, operation, and user. View cost breakdowns, prompt efficiency scores, and configure budget alerts to optimize spending without sacrificing quality.

Full-Stack Platform Capabilities

Unlike LLM-only observability tools, we correlate AI layer performance with your entire infrastructure - databases, microservices, and application logs.

ClickHouse Architecture

Handle high-cardinality tagging without performance degradation or out-of-memory crashes using columnar storage optimized for analytical queries.

Query Any Field Without Re-Instrumentation

Unlike Langfuse's fixed observation schema, you can track custom reasoning steps, tool calls, or model parameters without code changes.

OpenTelemetry Native

Avoid vendor lock-in with industry standard instrumentation. Switch observability providers without rewriting instrumentation or removing proprietary agents.

Configuration as Code

Manage dashboards and alerts with Terraform to maintain stability during rapid product updates. Version control your observability configuration.

Alert Segmentation for On-Call Health

Define granular alert severity levels instead of blanket alerts that cause on-call burnout. Route notifications dynamically by service, environment, or customer.

Out-of-the-Box Dashboards

Start monitoring immediately with pre-built dashboards for OpenAI, Anthropic, LangChain, database queries, Kubernetes pods, and API latency. Get visibility into your LLM applications, infrastructure, and application performance on day 1.

SigNoz vs Langfuse for 1 Billion Spans/Month

We charge based on data size while Langfuse charges per unit count. AI applications generate more spans due to complex agent workflows and tool calls, making unit-based pricing expensive at scale.

Langfuse Core

$60,331/month

Base $29 + $60,302 usage (graduated pricing from 100k to 1B units). Langfuse counts traces, observations, and scores as billable units.

SigNoz Cloud

$300 - $3,000/month

Span sizes typically range from 1 KB to 10 KB depending on your instrumentation and payload complexity. It also includes traces, logs, and metrics with no separate instrumentation.

4 Pillars of AI-Focused Observability Architecture

ELASTIC INGESTION AT SCALE

Handle Unpredictable Telemetry Spikes Without Data Loss

Workloads generate extreme ingestion bursts, jumping from hundreds to tens of thousands of records per second in minutes. Traditional observability systems drop data or lag during these spikes. We buffer telemetry with queued retry processors and memory limiters to prevent data loss during traffic bursts.
COST PREDICTABILITY

Pay for Data Volume Ingested, Not Host Count

Companies running large GPU clusters make host-based pricing financially unsustainable. Legacy vendors charge per host and double-charge for ingestion and indexing, leading to surprise bills. We charge based on data volume ingested, not the number of nodes or containers. Set daily rate limits and ingestion quotas to prevent cost overruns.
HIGH-CARDINALITY DATA HANDLING

Tag Every Request Without Crashing Your Metrics Store

Applications tag telemetry with user IDs, model versions, and customer IDs across thousands of nodes. Prometheus and Loki crash with out-of-memory errors under this load. We use ClickHouse's columnar storage to handle high-cardinality data natively, letting you tag aggressively without performance degradation.
FULL-STACK CORRELATION

Correlate LLM Performance with Infrastructure and Application Logs

AI debugging requires connecting LLM latency spikes to database queries, infrastructure metrics, and application logs. Fragmented stacks force manual correlation across multiple tools. We unify logs, metrics, and traces with automatic trace_id correlation. Span links connect async workflows that parent-child tracing cannot represent.

I've studied more than 10 observability tools in the market. We eventually landed on SigNoz, which says a lot. Compared to Elastic Cloud, it's a breeze with SigNoz.

Getting started with SigNoz was incredibly easy. We were able to set up the OpenTelemetry collector quickly and start monitoring our systems almost immediately.

Recently, we configured alerts for pod restarts and were able to quickly identify and resolve the root cause before it escalated. Additionally, SigNoz's tracing capabilities helped us spot unwanted calls to third-party systems, allowing us to optimize our applications.

We have started saving almost six hours on a daily basis, which we can now invest in other tech debts and backlogs. The best thing about SigNoz is that it's open source. I can go into the source code and look at what's happening. That's a great confidence booster for long-term usage.

SigNoz is something we use daily. If I have ten tabs open, six of them are SigNoz. We used traces and it helped us take 30 seconds down to 3 seconds.
