LangSmith docs

LangSmith provides tools for developing, debugging, and deploying LLM applications. It helps you trace requests, evaluate outputs, test prompts, and manage deployments in one place. LangSmith is framework agnostic, so you can use it with or without LangChain’s open-source libraries langchain and langgraph. Prototype locally, then move to production with integrated monitoring and evaluation to build more reliable AI systems.

LangGraph Platform is now LangSmith Deployment. For more information, check out the Changelog.
