The Assets page gives you a unified view of all AI assets in your workspace, organized across four tabs: Agents, Tools, Deployments, and Models. The summary cards at the top vary per tab, while the table columns and controls are shared across all tabs.

Asset Tabs

Use the tabs at the top to switch between asset types:
  • Agents: AI agents built or connected in your workspace
  • Tools: Tools available to your agents
  • Deployments: Deployed configurations of your agents
  • Models: LLM models in use across your assets

Summary Cards

Each tab displays four summary cards at the top. All cards include a sparkline overlaying the current period against the last period.
  • Total Cost: Total spend for all agents in the selected period
  • Total Runs: Total number of agent invocations
  • Active Agents: Number of active agents out of the total (e.g. 0 / 7)
  • Top used Agents: Ranked list of the most-invoked agents, with cost and request count

Asset Table

Columns

Status Icons

Each asset name is prefixed with a status icon indicating its activity level:

Trust Levels

Each asset can be assigned a trust level to communicate its production readiness to your team. To set it, click anywhere on an asset row to open the detail panel, then use the Trust level dropdown.

Tags

Tags are set manually per asset via the Asset Detail Panel. They are also visible in the Overview table and can be used for filtering. Click anywhere on an asset row to open the detail panel. In the Details tab, scroll to the Tags section. Click Add tag to add a new tag, or click × on an existing tag to remove it.

  • Overview: Shows performance metrics for the selected asset

Asset Capture via Third-Party Framework

Assets in Control Tower can be populated automatically when you instrument your code with OpenTelemetry and send traces to Orq.ai. Each trace carries information about which agents, tools, and models were invoked. Orq.ai extracts these and registers them as assets without any manual configuration. Orq.ai currently supports asset capture from OpenAI Agents, LangGraph, and Vercel AI SDK traces. See the framework documentation for setup instructions and examples:

OpenAI Agents

Instrument OpenAI Agents with OpenAIAgentsInstrumentor and send traces to Orq.ai for automatic asset registration.

LangGraph

Instrument LangGraph agents with setup() from orq_ai_sdk.langchain to capture traces and automatically register assets in Control Tower.

Vercel AI SDK

Use experimental_telemetry with the Vercel AI SDK to capture agents, tools, and models in Control Tower.
