When you log in to AgentVista, the dashboard is your command center for all your agents and infrastructure. It surfaces the most important signals — cost, success rate, recent activity — without requiring you to build queries from scratch.
If you are a new user, you will see an onboarding checklist at the top of the dashboard. It walks you through three steps: generating an API key, installing the SDK, and sending your first trace. The checklist disappears once all three steps are complete.

Agents list
The agents list at /agents shows every agent that has sent at least one trace. For each agent, the table displays:
| Column | Description |
|---|
| Agent | Name and a status indicator (healthy / degraded / failing / inactive) |
| Runs | Total number of traces received |
| Success | Success rate as a percentage |
| Cost | Cumulative cost across all runs |
| Avg cost/run | Average cost per individual run |
| Last run | How long ago the most recent trace was received |
Agent detail
The agent detail view at /agents/{agentId} focuses on a single agent. It contains:
- Runs over time — a time-series chart of run volume
- Cost chart — daily cost trend for this agent
- Success rate chart — success rate over time
- Recent traces — a list of the most recent traces with status, duration, cost, and outcome
Click any trace in the recent traces list to open the trace detail view.
Trace detail
The trace detail view renders a single trace as a waterfall. Each span in the trace is displayed as a row ordered by started_at, with indentation representing the parent-child hierarchy (derived from parent_span_id references).
Span types include:
agent — the top-level agent execution spanllm — an individual LLM call, showing model, input/output tokens, and costtool — a tool invocation (API call, database query, function call)http — an outbound HTTP requestdb — a database querycustom — any span type you define yourself
Each span row shows its name, status, duration, and — for LLM spans — the model and token counts. Spans with a failed status are highlighted in red.
Cost dashboard
The cost dashboard gives you a breakdown of total AI spend across all your agents. You can see:
- Total spend over a selected time range
- Spend broken down by agent
- Spend broken down by model
Use this view to identify which agents are driving the most cost and whether a model change is having a measurable impact.
Service map
The service map auto-discovers the topology of all your services and agents from ingested trace data. It requires no manual configuration.
See the Service map page for full details.
Metrics explorer
The metrics explorer lets you query and visualize metric streams that have been ingested via OTLP or the AgentVista SDK. You can select a metric, apply filters, and view it as a time-series chart.
Log search
The log search view gives you full-text search across all structured log records. You can filter by service name, severity, and time range, and click through to the trace a log record belongs to.
Alerts
The alerts view shows all your active alert configurations — what type each alert is, the threshold, the delivery channel, and when it last fired.
See the Alerts page for details on creating and managing alerts.
Configurable dashboard panels
The main dashboard at /dashboard is configurable. You can:
- Add, remove, and rearrange panels
- Choose from a template gallery of pre-built panel layouts for common stacks
- Create multiple named dashboards and switch between them using the dashboard selector
To apply a template, click Templates in the tab bar, select a template, and click Apply. A new dashboard is created with pre-configured panels and selected automatically.
If you have more than one dashboard, a dropdown selector appears in the top-right corner of the dashboard tab so you can switch between them.
