Products, side by side

Hand-checked pairing

Arize AI

Platform

Arize AXPlatform

AI observability platform that traces, evaluates and monitors machine-learning and LLM applications in production, surfacing issues and root causes.

Galileo

Platform

GalileoPlatform

AI evaluation and observability platform: automated evals, real-time guardrails, and production monitoring across the agent development lifecycle.

No counterpart

Arize AI sells these in a stack layer with no product recorded for Galileo yet — nothing on the other side to compare them against.

AI agent

AlyxAI agent

AI engineering agent built into Arize AX that reads a project's traces, prompts, datasets and evals and acts on them — investigating issues, improving prompts and running evaluations from a full-page or side-chat surface whose context carries across pages.

Developer tool

Arize PhoenixDeveloper tool

Open-source platform for tracing, evaluating and experimenting with LLM and agent applications, run locally, via Docker/Kubernetes, or as free Phoenix Cloud instances.

Infrastructure service

Arize Database (adb)Infrastructure service

An AI-native datastore (built on Apache Iceberg) that unifies observability and evaluation data in open formats for zero-copy access across the AI/data stack.

Galileo sells these in a stack layer with no product recorded for Arize AI yet — nothing on the other side to compare them against.

API service

Galileo SignalsAPI service

Real-time monitoring layer within the Galileo platform that computes evaluation metrics (hallucination, groundedness, tone) as signals on live production traffic, feeding alerts and dashboards.
