We logged into the real, hosted version of LangSmith (US region) and worked through the same four steps we're using across every platform in this comparison: create a prompt, run it and inspect the trace, and build a small eval dataset. This post is just the LangSmith leg — screenshots, actual UI, no marketing copy. The main comparison post pulls the findings from LangSmith, Langfuse, PromptLayer, and AcruxCore together.

If you're building on LLMs, you eventually need four things: prompts you can change without redeploying, a reliable path to model providers, visibility into what each call did, and a way to tell whether a change helped. LangSmith and Acrux Core both address this space from different starting points. This is an honest look at where they overlap and where they differ.
