Endigest AI Core Summary
This post explains how OpenRouter's Broadcast feature integrates with Grafana Cloud to provide observability for LLM-powered applications without code changes.
•OpenRouter provides a unified API for hundreds of AI models from OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, and Meta, handling load balancing and provider fallbacks
•Broadcast automatically generates OpenTelemetry traces for every API request and sends them to Grafana Cloud via OTLP HTTP/JSON endpoint with no SDK installation required
•Each trace captures model info, token usage, timing data (including time to first token), cost in USD, status/errors, and custom metadata
•Teams use TraceQL queries to filter traces by error status, duration thresholds, or custom metadata like environment and feature flags
•
Privacy Mode allows excluding prompt and completion content from traces while retaining operational metrics like token usage and cost
