Autonomous infrastructure issue management that auto investigates, triages and resolves production issues.

TierZero is an AI production agent platform for incident response, alert triage, internal support and CI/CD. Its Incident Agent joins when an incident is raised and investigates across logs, metrics, traces, code, deploys and past incidents. It proposes rollbacks, restarts, feature flag changes or fix pull requests that run only on a person's approval, with a full audit trail. The Alert Agent investigates and groups every alert, a Digest Agent reports on a schedule, a Support Agent answers infrastructure questions in Slack and a CI/CD Agent quarantines and fixes flaky tests.

The Context Engine keeps an organizational memory of investigation patterns and tribal knowledge that users can inspect, edit or delete, and Prompt Studio tests runbooks and prompts against real alert payloads. TierZero is SOC 2 Type II and HIPAA compliant, supports SSO, SAML and RBAC, runs as SaaS, private cloud or on premises, and offers a REST API, an MCP server and a Terraform provider. It was founded by engineering leaders from Meta and Niantic.

Integrations

TierZero has 50+ integrations across observability (Datadog, Grafana, New Relic, Prometheus, CloudWatch, Sentry), incident management (PagerDuty, Opsgenie, incident.io, Rootly, FireHydrant), code (GitHub, GitLab, Bitbucket), CI (Buildkite), clouds, knowledge (Confluence, Notion) and chat (Slack, Discord). Custom MCP servers add the customer's own tools.

In practice

An alert fires overnight and nobody wants to dig through dashboards to find the cause. TierZero's Alert Agent investigates every alert from Datadog, Sentry, PagerDuty or CloudWatch, groups related ones and lays out root cause findings with a confidence level.

A bad deploy has to be rolled back fast without anyone acting blind. The Incident Agent proposes a one click rollback with health validation, a person approves it before it runs, and every action lands on a full audit trail.

When engineers leave, what they knew about past incidents leaves with them. TierZero's Context Engine captures knowledge from Slack, incidents and code changes as versioned records, and agents replay past investigations when a similar incident comes up.

Integrations & Tool Calling	Full
The Incident Agent acts in the customer's systems with one click rollback and health validation, service restarts, feature flag toggles and pull requests with fixes. It connects through 50+ integrations, among them Datadog, PagerDuty, GitHub, AWS, GCP, Jira and Slack, and custom MCP servers add the customer's own tools.

Knowledge Grounding & RAG	Partial
Investigations read logs, metrics, traces, code, deploys and runbooks at run time, and also draw on integrations such as Confluence and Notion and on Instructions and Skills that teams write. Longer lived knowledge sits in the Context Engine's knowledge graph, which works as organizational memory with a set scope, lifetime and delete path.

What is public

Starter and Pro per user prices, credit allowances, user limits, retention and inclusions are public. Enterprise is custom.

Variable cost rationale

Seats set the base price, and each seat carries a monthly credit allowance (75 credits on Starter, 80 on Pro), so the bill grows with headcount.
