TRACER OSS

Developer tool

Open-source (MIT) Python library and command-line tool that turns a team's LLM classification traces into a routing policy: a lightweight local model answers the inputs it matches reliably, a parity gate certifies its agreement with the teacher model on held-out data, and uncertain inputs still go to the LLM; the vendor's hosted Tracer Cloud is in closed beta.
