Time-travel debugging for AI apps — replay any trace, fix in one click
Glassbrain captures the full execution trace of your AI application—every LLM call, retrieval step, tool invocation, and branching decision—and renders it as an interactive visual tree. When something goes wrong, you click the failing node, change the input, and replay from that exact point without redeploying. It's like a time-travel debugger built specifically for non-deterministic AI stacks. What sets it apart from generic observability tools like LangSmith or Langfuse is the one-click fix workflow: Glassbrain doesn't just show you what failed, it surfaces Claude-powered fix proposals that you can copy directly into your code. The diff view shows you before/after so you can verify the suggestion actually improved output quality before shipping. Setup takes two lines of code and works with OpenAI, Anthropic, LangChain, and LlamaIndex out of the box. The free tier covers 1,000 traces/month—enough for a solo developer in early testing. Pro at $39/month jumps to 50,000 traces with unlimited AI suggestions. This launched on Product Hunt today (April 6, 2026) and currently sits at #13 on the daily leaderboard.
Panel Reviews
Dev Patel
Indie hacker & full-stack builder
“Two lines of setup and you can time-travel through your agent's reasoning. The AI-generated fix proposals powered by Claude are the killer feature—not just telling you what broke but showing you how to fix it with a diff. This would have saved me days on my last LangChain project.”
Mira Volkov
Senior SWE, ex-Google
“LangSmith, Langfuse, Arize, Traceloop—the AI observability space is already crowded with well-funded players who have months head start. The visual tree is pretty but 'click to replay' only works for deterministic subsets of your trace. LLM calls have temperature; you can't truly replay them, you can only approximate. The value prop needs more precision.”
Zara Chen
AI researcher & futurist
“The long game here is automated regression testing for AI systems. Once you have traces from every user session, you can build golden datasets, run evals, and detect quality regressions before they ship—automatically. Glassbrain is building the TDD framework for the agentic era.”
Priya Anand
Content creator & no-code builder
“This is firmly a developer tool—you need to be writing Python or JS and integrating SDKs to use it. There's no no-code path here. If you're using n8n or Make for your AI workflows, Glassbrain won't help you. Worth bookmarking for when it adds visual builder support.”
Community Sentiment
“Finally something that treats AI debugging seriously—existing tools are just glorified log viewers”
“The time-travel replay concept is clever but I want to see how well it handles streaming responses”
“Two lines of code to get a full visual trace tree—this is the debugging experience LLM apps have needed”
