# ZenML

ZenML is open-source software that runs training, batch inference, evals and agent workflows as reproducible Python pipelines on Kubernetes, Vertex AI, SageMaker, AzureML or a laptop. Kitaru, its Apache 2.0 open-source core, imports traces from tools such as Langfuse and LangSmith, surfaces insights across sessions, turns findings into checks and replays fixes. ZenML's hosted AI engineer reads agent traces next to existing evals and flags those that are wrong or missing.
