Stork Quadrant

Becomes the API· 29/100

Replaceable as a UI, but kept alive as the API the agents call.

“Helicone is a thin wrapper around LLM API observability — all of it is replaceable by an agent querying your own logs, calling the LLM provider's native APIs, or a lightweight open-source alternative. The only stickiness is switching cost and dashboard familiarity, which evaporates the moment someone builds a better free alternative or the LLM providers ship native dashboards. This dies unless it becomes infrastructure.”

How to defend

Stop being a dashboard. Become the observability layer that agents and applications call directly — own the request interception point, not the UI. Alternatively, add proprietary data: partner with LLM providers to surface cost-optimization insights or performance benchmarks nobody else has access to.

Ship an MCP server and list it on Stork — biggest single point gain (+25).
Publish a public changelog and ship in the last 90 days — silence reads as abandonment (+10).
