Deepchecks Reviews, Pricing, and Alternatives (December 2025)
Blog post from Openlayer
Deepchecks is an open-source Python package designed for testing and validating AI systems throughout their lifecycle, focusing on pre-deployment data integrity checks, train-test split validation, and model performance assessment. While it effectively aids ML engineers in development-stage testing by providing a flexible evaluation framework and pre-built checks, it lacks real-time security protections, such as blocking prompt injections and PII leakage, and does not offer automated compliance mapping to frameworks like the EU AI Act or NIST RMF. As a result, organizations operating at an enterprise scale often seek alternatives like Openlayer, which provides comprehensive governance, security, and compliance features, including real-time guardrails, continuous monitoring, and automated regulatory alignment. Other alternatives, such as Langfuse and MLflow, offer specific capabilities for observability and experiment tracking, respectively, but may lack the comprehensive security and compliance integration found in Openlayer.
