What is Helicone?​

Helicone is an open source observability platform that proxies your OpenAI traffic and provides you key insights into your spend, latency and usage.

With your LangChain environment you can just add the following parameter.

const model = new OpenAI(
  {},
  {
    basePath: "https://oai.hconeai.com/v1",
  }
);
const res = await model.invoke("What is a helicone?");

Now head over to helicone.ai to create your account, and add your OpenAI API key within our dashboard to view your logs.
