## Choose when

### Choose deepeval if…

- Tags unique to deepeval: evaluation framework, evaluation-metrics, llm-evaluation, llm-evaluation-framework.
- Also covers LLM Frameworks.

### Choose hypertunity if…

- Tags unique to hypertunity: bayesian-optimization, gpyopt, hyperparameter-optimization, slurm.
- Leaner open-issue backlog (0).

## When NOT to use deepeval

- Evaluation & Observability: Defer heavyweight eval infra only until you have real traffic - never skip it once users depend on answers.
- LLM Frameworks: Avoid a framework for a single prompt-and-retrieve call; the abstraction can cost more than it saves.

## When NOT to use hypertunity

- Last GitHub push was 2358 days ago (dormant maintenance, Jan 26, 2020). Validate activity before betting a new project on hypertunity.
- Evaluation & Observability: Defer heavyweight eval infra only until you have real traffic - never skip it once users depend on answers.
