The Openlayer MCP server, Automatic thresholds, BigQuery Integration and Anomaly Detection, Project-level access groups

We’re introducing an exciting new feature to our observability platform: automatic thresholds for tests and anomaly detection.
Openlayer now supports automatic thresholds for tests, which are data-driven and adapt to your AI system over time. Whether you're monitoring cost, data quality, or GPT eval scores, we'll suggest thresholds based on historical patterns to take the guesswork out of defining acceptable criteria for your system.
We’ve also introduced anomaly detection to flag test results that deviate from the norm. This means you’ll get alerted when something’s off based on the automatic thresholds that we predict.
Both features are designed to take the pain out of manual setup and make your evaluations more proactive and intelligent. To get started, just create a new test in the Openlayer app and choose automatic when setting the threshold.
