Neptune is an experiment tracker purpose-built for foundation model training.
With Neptune, you can monitor thousands of per-layer metrics—losses, gradients, and activations—at any scale. Visualize them with no lag and no missed spikes. Drill down into logs and debug training issues fast. Keep your model training stable while reducing wasted GPU cycles.

Get started
Neptune consists of a Python API and a web application.
Install the Python client library:
pip install neptune-scale
Configure the API token and project:
-
Log in to your Neptune workspace.
-
Get your API token from your user menu in the bottom left corner.
To create shared API tokens, see how to set up a service account.
-
In the environment where neptune-scale is installed, save your API token to the
NEPTUNE_API_TOKENenvironment variable:export NEPTUNE_API_TOKEN="h0dHBzOi8aHR0cHM6...Y2MifQ==" -
Create a project, or find an existing project you want to send the run metadata to.
To create a project via API:
from neptune_scale.projects import create_project create_project( name="project-x", workspace="team-alpha", )
-
(optional) In the environment where neptune-scale is installed, save your full project path to the
NEPTUNE_PROJECTenvironment variable:export NEPTUNE_PROJECT="team-alpha/project-x"
If you skip this step, you need to pass the project name as an argument each time you start a run.
You're ready to start using Neptune.
For more help with setup, see Get started in the Neptune documentation.
Example usage
Create an experiment:
from neptune_scale import Run
run = Run(experiment_name="MyExperimentName")
Then, call logging methods on the run and pass the metadata as a dictionary.
Log configuration or other simple values with log_configs():
run.log_configs(
{
"learning_rate": 0.001,
"batch_size": 64,
}
)
Inside a training loop or other iteration, use log_metrics() to append metric values:
# inside a loop
for step in range(100):
run.log_metrics(
data={"acc": 0.89, "loss": 0.17},
step=step,
)
run.assign_files(
{
"dataset/data_sample": "sample_data.csv",
"dataset/image_sample": "input/images/img1.png",
}
)
Log series of histograms:
from neptune_scale.types import Histogram
for step in epoch:
# your training loop
my_histogram = Histogram(...)
run.log_histograms(
histograms={
"layers/1/activations": my_histogram
},
step=step,
)
To help organize and group runs, apply tags:
run.add_tags(tags=["testing", "data v1.0"])
# To assign the run to groups, apply group tags
run.add_tags(
tags=["group1", "group2"]
group_tags=True,
)
When logging is no longer needed, use close() to stop the run:
run.close()
To explore your experiment, open the project in Neptune and navigate to Runs. For an example, see the demo project →
