PromptCanary auto-detects when LLM providers push model updates and runs regression tests on your production prompts before your users notice anything.
OpenAI, Anthropic, and Google push model updates constantly. Silent patches. Version bumps. Behavior changes with no changelog. Your prompts worked yesterday. Today, your JSON extractor returns markdown. Your support bot turned cold. Your summarizer hallucinates.
You find out from a user complaint. Or a spike in your error dashboard. Or worse, you don't find out at all.
In 8 months, the three most popular vendor-neutral LLM testing tools were acquired by model providers or infrastructure companies. Teams that relied on them are looking for what comes next.
Platform shut down. Team acqui-hired. Customers displaced overnight.
Open-source continues, but now owned by a database company. LLM-first focus fading.
350K+ developers. 127 Fortune 500 companies. Now vendor-locked to OpenAI.
Vendor-neutral. Auto-detecting. The tool that watches the providers so you don't have to.
Polls provider endpoints every 1-6 hours. Catches version bumps, metadata shifts, silent patches, and behavioral drift via canary prompts.
Model change detected? Every registered prompt gets tested against golden inputs with your quality criteria. No manual triggers needed.
Slack, email, PagerDuty, webhooks, Telegram. Configurable severity thresholds. "Alert if semantic similarity drops below 0.80."
Import via paste, API, GitHub sync, or SDK. Define golden inputs, expected outputs, and composable quality criteria per prompt.
GitHub Action. CLI tool. Webhook endpoints. Block merges when regressions are detected. Runs in your pipeline, not just ours.
Side-by-side comparisons. Historical baselines. Trend tracking across model versions. See exactly what changed and when.

Providers will keep shipping updates. Models will keep changing. The question is whether you find out from a dashboard or from a customer. PromptCanary makes sure it's the dashboard.
