## Choose when

### Choose athina-evals if…

- Tags unique to athina-evals: evaluation-framework, evaluation-metrics, llm-eval, llm-evaluation.
- When comprehensive evaluation of LLM responses is required, leveraging athina's specific tools and metrics
- More GitHub stars (301 vs 48) - visibility, not fit.

### Choose futureagi-sdk if…

- Requirements: Supports Python and TypeScript languages; Automated evaluations with sub-100ms guardrails.
- Tags unique to futureagi-sdk: ai-agents, annotations, dataset, development.
- Future AGI SDK is an innovative toolkit designed for production-grade AI evaluation, prompt management, and observability. It supports Python and TypeScript languages and is licensed under Apache-2.0.

## When NOT to use athina-evals

- If open-source alternatives with transparent customization options are preferred over athina-evals' approach
- In scenarios where API access requirements limit the ability to perform evaluations offline or in private environments

## When NOT to use futureagi-sdk

- Evaluation & Observability: Defer heavyweight eval infra only until you have real traffic - never skip it once users depend on answers.
