Traccia is a vendor-neutral AI Agent Control Plane built for teams running autonomous agents in production. Observe agent behavior, evaluate performance, govern actions with policies and runtime controls, and maintain an auditable trail of what happened. Built with an open, developer-first SDK and OpenTelemetry, Traccia works across models, frameworks, and existing observability stacks—so teams can control their agents without being locked into a single AI vendor.
We’ve been building Traccia because we kept seeing the same gap with AI agents: once an agent can call tools, make decisions and take actions, a traditional trace can tell you what happened — but not whether that action was acceptable.
With traditional software, an execution usually follows a path defined by the developer. Agents are different. They can reason, choose tools, change their path and take actions we didn’t explicitly define.
That creates a new infrastructure problem for teams deploying agents in production:
What did the agent do? Why did it do it? Was it allowed to? Which policy and permissions applied? And can we prove what happened afterwards?
Traccia is our AI Agent Control Plane — a vendor-neutral layer to observe what agents do, evaluate how they behave, govern what they’re allowed to do, and audit what happened.
We’ve open-sourced the Traccia SDK and built it developer-first, with OpenTelemetry at the foundation. It works across models and agent frameworks, so teams can add observability and governance without being locked into a single AI vendor. We’re still early, and we’re building this alongside developers and teams actually deploying agents.
I’d especially love feedback from people running agents in production:
What are you using today to debug agent behaviour? How are you evaluating agents? And more importantly — how do you control what an agent is allowed to do?
We’re also making it easier to try Traccia during the launch.

Who hunted Traccia?
Traccia was hunted by Vijay Poudel. A “hunter” on Product Hunt is the community member who submits a product to the platform — uploading the images, the link, and tagging the makers behind it. Hunters typically write the first comment explaining why a product is worth attention, and their followers are notified the moment they post. Around 79% of featured launches on Product Hunt are self-hunted by their makers, but a well-known hunter still acts as a signal of quality to the rest of the community. See the full all-time top hunters leaderboard to discover who is shaping the Product Hunt ecosystem.
