Stop asking “what changed?”

Cova is your AI SRE agent.

It spots what’s wrong, finds the deploy behind it, and posts the answer in Slack before your team starts their day.

Between alerts

Finds the gaps before they page you.

Most bad nights start somewhere nobody was watching. Cova maps what’s covered, finds the monitors that are missing or noisy and the services nobody owns, and writes the fix for you to approve.

STEP 1

Connect your tools

Monitoring, error tracking, your repo and a Slack channel. Cova reads them, and changes nothing without your approval.

Datadog

Sentry

STEP 2

Cova keeps watch

It investigates anything unusual in your data, and in between it finds noisy or missing monitors and services with no owner.

STEP 3

You set the limits

Choose what Cova may do on its own, separately for production and staging. Everything else waits for your approval, and every change is logged.

Same alert. Two very different nights.

The first minutes of every incident start with the same questions. What changed? What else is affected? Cova gets the answers before you have to ask.

An illustrated example. Your timings depend on your stack.

After the incident

The write-up is already done.

When an incident closes, Cova drafts the postmortem from what happened. Every month, it shows what it did for your team.

Postmortem, drafted

Written from the incident’s own records: impact, timeline, cause and suggested action items. Edit it, mark it final, or copy it as Markdown.

Fewer surprises. Better answers.

Cova watches every release, runs on your own AI key, and logs everything it does.

Every release, watched.

After each production deploy, Cova checks error rate and latency every minute against the minutes before. Two bad checks in a row, and it opens an investigation tied to that deploy.

Straight answers

Good questions.

Does Cova replace my monitoring tools?

No. Keep everything you have. Cova sits on top of your tools, reads what they already know, and connects it to your deploys.

What is an AI SRE agent?

An AI SRE agent watches your production systems, investigates when something goes wrong, and explains what it found with evidence, working on top of the monitoring tools you already have. Cova is one: it finds what changed, posts the answer in Slack, and only changes things within the limits you set. Read our guide to AI SRE agents.

Will we get more alerts?

No. Cova never pages anyone. It watches the data your tools already collect and posts its findings to the Slack channel you choose.

What can Cova change on its own?

Only what you allow. For each kind of change you choose: automatically, after approval, or never, separately for production and staging. By default every change waits for approval. Every change is logged.

Can I ask Cova questions?

Yes. Mention @Cova in any Slack thread, or send it a direct message. It answers from the same investigation, with the evidence behind it.

How does Cova learn our setup?

Save a note on any service, like “retries spike during the Monday batch run, that’s expected.” Cova uses your notes in its answers, so it gets sharper the longer you use it.

Where does our data go?

Your workspace is kept separate from every other customer. AI requests use your own provider key, so they're covered by your agreement with that provider.

How long does it take to set up?

Connect a monitoring tool, your repo and a Slack channel. Cova starts looking for gaps right away and investigates the next problem it spots in your data.

Your next alert, already answered.

Connect two tools for free. Cova takes the next one from there.
