New Relic has launched monitoring for ChatGPT apps, providing complete visibility into custom applications embedded within ChatGPT to eliminate the traditional ‘black box’ of generative AI environments and optimize performance, reliability, and revenue opportunities.

Quick Intel

  • New Relic introduces industry-leading observability for custom ChatGPT apps, delivering deep insights into performance, user experience, and reliability within the ChatGPT interface.
  • The solution addresses visibility challenges in i-frames, including layout shifts, hallucinated UI elements, broken functionality, and restrictions from CSPs and sandbox rules.
  • Key capabilities include user frustration detection (rage clicks, error clicks, dead clicks), Cumulative Layout Shift (CLS) monitoring, cross-origin insights, and end-to-end traceability from ChatGPT interactions to backend services.
  • Developers gain real-time telemetry on latency, script failures, console logs, and custom events like “AI Render Success” to build dashboards tracking critical user journeys.
  • Businesses can confidently monetize generative AI by bringing services directly into ChatGPT conversations while proactively resolving issues that impact conversions.
  • Available now as part of the New Relic Intelligent Observability Platform with the latest browser agent; new users can sign up for a free account.

Overcoming the I-Frame Blind Spot in Generative AI

Billions of monthly users engage with ChatGPT, creating a massive opportunity for businesses to embed custom apps that deliver goods, services, and interactions directly within conversational flows. However, standard browser monitoring tools often fail in these restricted i-frame environments due to content security policies, sandbox limitations, and lack of top-level window control.

New Relic’s monitoring solution overcomes these barriers, providing full-stack clarity for ChatGPT-hosted applications. It detects issues such as AI-generated “hallucinated” UI elements that appear functional but break interactions, dynamic content that disrupts layouts, or “ghost citations” referencing nonexistent backend data—problems that remain invisible without specialized observability.

Comprehensive Telemetry for AI-Embedded Applications

New Relic’s browser agent collects granular, real-time data within the ChatGPT i-frame, including latency, connectivity, script errors, console logs, and detailed user interactions. Developers can define custom events—for example, tracking successful LLM-driven chart rendering—and correlate them with metrics like user bounce rates to create targeted dashboards.

The solution delivers:

  • User Frustration Detection: Identification of rage clicks, error clicks, and dead clicks to pinpoint friction points.
  • Layout Instability Monitoring: Measurement of Cumulative Layout Shift (CLS) as AI streams dynamic content.
  • Cross-Origin Insights: Performance visibility when the application does not control the top-level window.
  • End-to-End Traceability: Full transaction tracing from user actions in ChatGPT to backend services.

“Bringing business services into the natural flow of a ChatGPT conversation is a powerful, intuitive, and revenue-generating strategy,” said New Relic Chief Product Officer Brian Emerson. “But once your carefully crafted application instantiates inside ChatGPT, it traditionally enters a black box where standard browser monitoring tools can fail. At New Relic, we’ve worked quickly to stay steps ahead of customers who want to maximize this opportunity, ensuring that businesses monetizing gen AI aren't flying blind when it comes to user experience and system health.”

Enabling Confident AI Monetization

By eliminating guesswork in third-party-hosted environments, New Relic empowers engineering teams to proactively resolve costly issues, optimize conversion paths, and confidently expand revenue streams through generative AI integrations. The solution maintains enterprise-grade security and privacy standards while providing actionable insights to enhance user experience and drive business outcomes.

ChatGPT app monitoring is now generally available within the New Relic Intelligent Observability Platform. Existing users can install the latest browser agent and configure value-based actions to monitor critical journeys. New customers can sign up for a free account.
