Chronosphere, a top observability platform, has launched AI-Guided Troubleshooting. This new feature aims to change how engineers spot, analyze, and fix production issues. It combines context-aware AI with Chronosphere’s Temporal Knowledge Graph. This creates a smart system that provides clear, actionable root-cause insights in real time.
As generative AI accelerates software development — with recent research from MIT and the University of Pennsylvania noting a 13.5% rise in weekly code commits — the pressure on engineering teams to troubleshoot faster has never been greater. However, most troubleshooting remains manual and intuition-driven, often leading to longer mean time to resolution (MTTR) and higher stress levels for on-call teams. Chronosphere’s new solution directly addresses this challenge by using AI reasoning enriched with full-system context to guide investigations with precision and speed.
“For AI to be effective in observability, it needs more than pattern recognition and summarization,” said Martin Mao, CEO and Co-founder of Chronosphere. “Chronosphere has spent years building the data foundation and analytical depth needed for AI to actually help engineers. With our Temporal Knowledge Graph and advanced analytics capabilities, we’re giving AI the understanding it needs to make observability truly intelligent — and giving engineers the confidence to trust its guidance.”

The platform introduces four key components:
Suggestions – Context-rich, plain-language recommendations that direct investigations toward the most probable causes.
Temporal Knowledge Graph – A dynamic, queryable map that captures evolving relationships between systems, dependencies, and telemetry data.
Investigation Notebooks – Centralized workspaces that document every finding, turning individual investigations into reusable knowledge.
Natural Language Assistance – A conversational interface that enables engineers to build dashboards and queries faster.
Chronosphere also announced the general availability of its Model Context Protocol (MCP) Server, allowing integration with AI-powered tools like Codex and PromptIDE. This enables developers to securely query observability data through large language models within familiar environments.
AI-Guided Troubleshooting is currently in limited release, with general availability expected in 2026, while MCP integration is now available to all Chronosphere customers.
