What is to11?
to11 is an open-source AI engineering platform that unifies LLM proxying, security, observability, and evaluation into a single product. Instead of stitching together separate tools for tracing, guardrails, routing, evals, and alerting, to11 provides one integrated platform on a shared data plane.Who is to11 for?
to11 is built for AI engineers and platform engineers who:- Ship LLM-powered applications or agents to production
- Need observability across non-deterministic LLM behavior
- Want inline security (PII detection, prompt injection blocking) without adding latency
- Use multiple LLM providers and need a unified interface
- Need to answer “why did this agent fail?” and “is our AI leaking PII?” from the same dashboard
Key Capabilities
Gateway
A Rust-based LLM proxy that sits between your application and upstream providers. It adds less than 1ms of overhead while providing:- Cross-format routing — Send requests in OpenAI format, route to Anthropic (or vice versa). The gateway translates between wire formats automatically.
- Inline security — PII detection, blocklist filtering, and ML-based content moderation run before requests leave the gateway.
- Streaming — Zero-copy SSE passthrough when formats match; full normalization when they differ.
- W3C Trace Context — Distributed tracing propagation across multi-call and multi-agent workflows.
Telemetry
OpenTelemetry-native observability built on GenAI semantic conventions:- GenAI spans — Every LLM call produces a span with model, tokens, latency, and optionally prompt/completion content.
- GenAI metrics — Histograms for operation duration, token usage, TTFT, and stream duration.
- ClickHouse storage — All telemetry lands in ClickHouse via a custom OTel Collector build with ES256 OIDC authentication.
Dashboard
A Next.js web application for exploring traces, reviewing LLM calls, running evals, and configuring alerts.Architecture
to11 follows a four-service architecture:- Gateway (Rust) — LLM proxy, sync guardrails, telemetry emission
- OTel Collector (Go) — OTLP ingestion, ClickHouse export
- API (Effect-TS) — REST API, API key management, OIDC endpoints
- Web (Next.js) — Dashboard, analytics
