Pick Langfuse if teams shipping LLM apps who need traces and a cost tile, not another chat UI. Pick Opik if agent teams who will stay on OSS $0 or Free Cloud $0 (25k spans, 10 members), then buy Pro Cloud at $19/month when they need 100k spans and 50 seats. Skip Langfuse if people who only want a gateway (LiteLLM) or a framework (LangChain) without an observability SKU.
