# Introduction

> Store, test, and trace LLM prompts with Tracia

Tracia is a prompt management platform that helps you store, version, test, and trace your LLM prompts. Move prompts out of your codebase and into a central location where they can be managed, tested, and monitored.

## Why Tracia?

## How It Works

1. **Create prompts** in the Tracia dashboard with versioning and variable support
2. **Install the SDK** in your application
3. **Run prompts** via the SDK - Tracia handles template rendering and LLM calls
4. **Monitor spans** to track performance and debug issues

## Quick Example

```typescript theme={null}
import { Tracia } from 'tracia';

const tracia = new Tracia({ apiKey: process.env.TRACIA_API_KEY });

const result = await tracia.prompts.run('welcome-email', {
  name: 'Alice',
  product: 'Tracia'
});

console.log(result.text);
```
