Opik
Comet MLPlatform for debugging, evaluating and monitoring LLM applications, RAG systems and agentic workflows, providing tracing, automated evaluations and production dashboards. Built by Comet ML, its server, web application and evaluation components run on self-managed infrastructure, with Comet's cloud offered as optional managed hosting.
Openness
4 high confidence- license
- Apache-2.0(OSI)
- source
- public
- core features withheld
- yes — a self-hosted install lacks user management, which Comet's Enterprise plan carries with single sign-on, service accounts and view-only users
- commercial
- Comet-Enterprise(flexible deployments with single sign-on, service accounts and view-only users)
Opik's server, web application and evaluation components are Apache-2.0 and self-hostable, and the README calls the self-hosted build the full platform. Comet's self-hosting overview qualifies that: a self-hosted install has all Opik features but not user management. Comet's Enterprise plan carries it, with single sign-on, service accounts and view-only users. A commercial tier holding back part of the product makes this open core.

Adoption
4 high confidenceAdoption is measured by PyPI downloads of the opik package, which ships more than 60 framework integrations for tracing and evaluation. The repository README discloses no trace-volume figure, so the reading is based on the download count alone, corroborated by GitHub stars on the repository.

Capability
4 high confidenceOpik covers OpenTelemetry-native tracing across many framework integrations, datasets and experiments with pytest-driven CI, LLM-as-judge metrics for hallucination, moderation, relevance and context precision, a prompt playground, and cost tracking. That matches the feature sets of Langfuse and MLflow, while Arize AX, a closed platform, goes further.
