What is PeerLM?

Overview of the platform and core workflow.

PeerLM answers one question about your production LLM: should you switch, route, or hold — and can you prove it on your own traffic. Instead of hand-testing prompts in chat interfaces, it samples what your product actually sends and compares candidates against the response your current model really gave.

Core Workflow

  1. Set up a Monitor — Name the model serving production today, choose a source and task policy, and preview the candidate policy. Saving remains manual-first.
  2. Connect traffic — Point an OpenTelemetry exporter at PeerLM, connect a tracing tool, or upload an export. A saved connection is not counted as received traffic.
  3. Runs accumulate — Each Run replays candidates on real sampled prompts and seats a rotating panel of judges.
  4. Read the verdict — The Monitor holds a living switch / route / hold call, with the receipt behind it. It arrives in Slack, your webhook, or back on the original trace.

Prompt CI runs the same comparison on every deploy, checking a prompt change against real traffic before it ships.

Who is it for?

  • Product teams choosing which LLM to integrate into their product.
  • AI engineers testing prompt changes across models before deploying.
  • Procurement teams comparing vendors with objective, shareable reports.

What you get

  • 200+ models across providers (OpenAI, Anthropic, xAI, and more), priced from dated catalog prices
  • Monitors that turn production traffic into a living switch / route / hold verdict
  • A five-judge panel per item, rotated from a pool frozen on the Monitor — PeerLM picks the judges
  • Triggers that start a new Run when a model ships, a price changes, or traffic drifts
  • Prompt CI: the same comparison on every deploy, before a prompt change ships
  • Verdicts delivered to Slack, a signed webhook, or back onto the original trace
  • Shareable public reports, with the methodology attached
