What is Vellum?
Discover how Vellum can enhance your workflow
Key Capabilities
What makes Vellum powerful
Prompt playground
Iterate on prompts with side by side comparisons across models. Save versions, review outputs against real examples, and reduce guesswork when you change wording, tools, or context windows.
Evaluations suite
Use the evaluations framework to run repeatable tests at scale. Track pass rates and failure categories so you can detect regressions after prompt edits or model swaps before deploying.
Hosted agent apps
Publish hosted agent apps for demos and internal users. Control who can access the app, gather feedback, and validate real workflows before you invest in deeper engineering.
Debugging console
Inspect agent runs to diagnose tool calls, retrieval context, and output issues. Use logs and run history to pinpoint where failures occur and to guide targeted prompt or logic fixes.
Key Features
What makes Vellum stand out
- Free and Pro plans: Pricing starts at $0 with 50 credits and Pro at $25 with 200 builder credits so solo builders can scale testing
- Prompt playground: Compare models side by side and iterate prompts systematically instead of relying on subjective testing
- Evaluations framework: Run repeatable quality tests at scale to detect regressions and track improvements across prompt versions
- Hosted agent apps: Share working agents with teammates through hosted apps for demos
- reviews
- and stakeholder feedback cycles
- Debugging console: Inspect runs and outputs to diagnose tool calls context issues and prompt changes that cause failures
- Knowledge base: Add documents to support retrieval workflows with plan based document allowances and clear usage guardrails
Use Cases
How Vellum can help you
- Agent prototyping: Build an agent by chatting with AI then refine logic with low code steps and controlled prompt versions
- Prompt iteration: Compare LLM outputs side by side and select prompts that improve accuracy and reduce unwanted variation
- Regression testing: Run evaluations on a saved dataset before release to catch quality drops after model or prompt changes
- RAG apps: Attach a knowledge base and test retrieval behavior with representative questions and strict document scope rules
- Stakeholder demos: Publish hosted agent apps so product and compliance reviewers can test behavior without local setup steps
- Model selection: Evaluate providers and self hosted options with the same tasks to choose the best cost and latency mix for production
