About
Arize is an AI and agent engineering platform that combines observability, tracing, evaluation, prompt management, and monitoring for production AI systems. The product includes Arize AX for generative AI and ML/CV observability, plus Phoenix OSS for self-hosted open source tracing and evaluation workflows.
The platform supports trace spans, multi-agent graphs, session support, token and cost tracking, custom metrics, dashboards, offline and online evaluations, prompt replay, and OpenTelemetry-based instrumentation. The pricing page lists a free SaaS plan with 25k trace spans per month, 1 GB ingestion per month, and 15 days of retention, alongside a separate self-hosted open source option with user-managed limits.

Free Tier Value
Arize’s pricing page shows AX Free with capped recurring limits: 25k trace spans/month, 1 GB ingestion/month, and 15-day retention, plus Alyx, online evals, product observability monitors/custom metrics, and community support. The cheapest paid plan that exceeds the free cap is AX Pro at $50/month with 50k spans and 10 GB ingestion, so a conservative prorated free-tier value is about half of that plan, or $25, but because the free tier is materially capped and Pro adds higher limits/email support, I’m using a conservative lower signal of $0.50? Wait—per the stated rule for free_tier, value should be prorated from the lowest paid plan that exceeds the cap; 25k vs 50k implies 50% of $50 = $25/month. The page does not mention any free credit or trial, and signup is required, so no_cc_required is false.
