Which one is for you

Pick AgentOps if

  • Fits if you build agents in Python or TypeScript and want runs traced and replayed
  • Works for a developer who wants LLM spend tracked across 400+ models

Look elsewhere if

  • Tight if you run real traffic: Basic stops at 5,000 events
  • Watch out: Pro is pay as you go and the per-event rate sits behind a pricing calculator
  • Not for you if you need self-hosting, custom SSO or SOC-2 listings, which are Enterprise with no published price
  • Watch out: the /pricing address returns a 404, so prices are on the home page

Pick Letta if

  • Fits if you are a developer who wants agents that keep their memory between runs
  • Works for people who already pay for a coding plan and can bring that key

Look elsewhere if

  • Tight if you stay free, because there is no included model usage and 3 agents is the cap
  • Pricey if you code heavily, as the pricing page says $100 to $200 a month or more of usage
  • Watch out: server tool time is billed at $0.00015 a second against your credits
  • Watch out: more than one person needs Teams Pro, since Pro covers a single user

Worth knowing

  • The /pricing address on the site returns a 404; the prices are on the homepage.

Letta

  • The free plan has no included model usage; you bring your own keys or buy credits.
  • Credits are spent by model usage at provider-based rates, and the pricing page says heavy coding use can run $100 to $200 a month or more.
  • Server-side tool time is billed at $0.00015 per second against credits, and web search and fetch tools also cost credits.

Key features

AgentOps

Agent tracing

Python and TypeScript SDKs
The Python SDK is set up with an install and an init call, and a TypeScript and JavaScript SDK is also available.

Letta

Persistent agent memory
Agents are stateful: they carry memory across sessions, and memory repositories are versioned in git so changes can be tracked.
Letta Code CLI
An open-source harness installed with npm for coding agents, personal assistants and agents that work on local files, with skills and schedules.
Agent SDK and app server
Developers can embed stateful agents in their own applications, with a self-hosting option and a protocol for external tools.
Channels and cloud agents
Cloud-hosted agents connect to Slack and a GitHub integration; the channels guide also lists Telegram, Discord, WhatsApp and Signal.
Bring your own keys
All plans accept your own model API keys, and usage then goes through your provider account instead of using Letta credits.

How this page was made

  • The verdict at the top follows a fixed rule. When both tools are in the same category and either is in our top three for it, the verdict follows that ranking: the higher-placed tool is our pick. The top three weigh who each tool suits as well as its grades, so a pick can go against the GPA. Otherwise the page does not pick one and says which grades higher: the higher GPA first; on a tie, the one with a free plan, then the one that starts cheaper in dollars a month, counted the same way for both; if they are still level, what the choice depends on.
  • The grades are our own, from each tool’s review or report card. The GPA is their average.
  • Prices, plans and platforms come from each tool’s listing. The table above says where each price was read and when.
  • The differences and the answers to the questions are worked out from those listings.
