[LangSmith](https://www.langchain.com/langsmith) is a closed source observability and prompt management platform for teams building with LangChain, and features a prompt hub where users can design, version, tag, and deploy prompts via a visual playground or SDK. However, LangSmith treats prompts as isolated artifacts (separate from the logic that runs them) which may introduce drift.

LangSmith allows you to:

* Save prompt versions using Git-like identifiers to keep track of changes, roll back, compare, and pin as known-good versions deployed in production.
* Embed prompts directly in applications (thanks to its tight integration with LangChain), while providing logging and analytics support across prompt workflows.
* Experiment with prompts in its playground where you can modify text, variables, and model parameters, and promote the current state to a saved version.
* Run dataset-driven evaluations using automatic scoring or human review to choose the best-performing variant.
* Log prompts, responses, latencies, and errors in order to see which prompts underperform or fail on real traffic. Visualizations and filters help you analyze how small prompt or parameter changes affect behavior, which feeds back into the prompt management loop.


## Build Reliable LLM Applications with Full Traceability

Lilypad is a [context engineering platform](/blog/context-engineering-platform) that keeps a full record of what ran, what changed, and who changed it. Lilypad versions everything that matters to make it easier to implement [prompt engineering best practices](/blog/prompt-engineering-best-practices): code, inputs, outputs, and even annotations, so you get a full audit trail, reproducible results, and reliable deployments.
