Open Source

Langfuse is open source for the following reasons:

  • To establish complete transparency
  • To enable the community to self-host and contribute (opens in a new tab)
  • To collaborate on integrations with various other open-source tools and frameworks
  • To assure users that Langfuse is open and does not impose lock-in, and that production traces are user data that can be exported/fetched at any time

License

Langfuse is licensed under an MIT license (opens in a new tab), with the exception of the /ee folder of the repository, if applicable.

Currently, our focus is entirely on open source. However, we may consider commercializing premium features as part of an enterprise version in the future. For specific requirements, please contact us at enterprise@langfuse.com

Repositories

Self-host vs Langfuse Cloud

The Langfuse team provides Langfuse Cloud as a managed solution to simplify the initial setup of Langfuse and to minimize the operational overhead of maintaining high availability in production. Get started for free on: https://cloud.langfuse.com (opens in a new tab).

Alternatively, Langfuse can be used locally and self-hosted.
