We’re building an AI SRE for incident response. Parity is the new first line of defense for on-call engineers - it autonomously triages and responds to incoming alerts. The Problem - On-call Sucks! 🚨 Chances are you or someone you know has had a terrible on-call experience. 2am pings on the weekends. A week of lugging your laptop around to the gym, your best friend’s birthday party, etc. Engineers often write off the week knowing that they’ll make 0 progress on their actual work and instead spend it deep in k8s hell. The Solution - Parity! 🦾 Parity integrates with your alerting solution (i.e. PagerDuty, Datadog) to act as a new first line of defense for your k8s cluster. Before you’ve opened your laptop, Parity has already conducted an investigation to triage, determine root cause, and suggest a remediation. If you have runbooks, add them to Parity, connect them to your existing alerts, and Parity will follow them just like you would. Don’t have runbooks yet? No problem - given an alert or a prompt like “there were latency spikes in X service today from 1-3pm”, Parity will open an investigation, gather information from your cluster, and test several hypotheses to determine the root cause. We currently integrate with Kubernetes (via AWS or GCP), Datadog, and PagerDuty with more integrations coming soon! If there’s an integration you’d like to see, just let us know.
