## Decision facts: open-webui

- **Adopt for:** Suitable for developers working with large language models who require a user-friendly interface and support for multiple APIs including Ollama and OpenAI.

## Choose when

### Choose open-webui if…

- License: open-webui is Other, radicalbit-ai-monitoring is Apache-2.0.
- Tags unique to open-webui: llm, openai, self-hosted.
- When you need to integrate multiple AI services, such as Ollama and OpenAI, into a unified user interface.

### Choose radicalbit-ai-monitoring if…

- License: radicalbit-ai-monitoring is Apache-2.0, open-webui is Other.
- Tags unique to radicalbit-ai-monitoring: ai-monitoring, ai-observability, artificial-intelligence, data-drift.
- Also covers Evaluation & Observability.

## When NOT to use open-webui

- When looking for tooling that exclusively supports APIs other than Ollama and OpenAI, as these are specific areas of focus for open-webui.
- If the requirement is a highly specialized interface tailored to specific tasks rather than a general AI interaction platform.

## When NOT to use radicalbit-ai-monitoring

- Evaluation & Observability: Defer heavyweight eval infra only until you have real traffic - never skip it once users depend on answers.
- Inference & Serving: Self-hosting rarely beats a hosted API on cost until you have steady, high-volume traffic.
- LLM Frameworks: Avoid a framework for a single prompt-and-retrieve call; the abstraction can cost more than it saves.
