BrontoScope enables automatic AI-powered error investigation directly from your logs. Instead of manually querying and correlating data, BrontoScope analyzes error events for you and delivers a structured report in seconds. No prompts. No setup. Just click and investigate.

​
Overview

When you encounter an error event in your logs, BrontoScope can:
  • Analyze the event across multiple dimensions
  • Correlate signals from logs, services, and infrastructure
  • Identify patterns and anomalies
  • Generate a clear, actionable report
All in under 10 seconds.

​
How It Works

  1. Navigate to your logs and locate an error event
  2. Click the event to open the event panel
  3. Select Investigate with AI
  4. BrontoScope automatically runs a multi-step analysis
  5. Review the generated report and supporting data

​
What BrontoScope Analyzes

​
1. Problem Scope

BrontoScope determines the full impact of the error, including:
  • When the issue started
  • Whether the issue is ongoing or resolved
  • Affected:
    • Users
    • Services
    • Hosts
    • Regions (if applicable)
This helps you quickly understand blast radius and urgency.

​
2. Likely Causes

The AI evaluates patterns and correlations to suggest potential root causes, such as:
  • Network instability or latency spikes
  • Sudden traffic increases or load imbalance
  • Recent deployments or configuration changes
  • Application-level bugs or exceptions
These insights are hypothesis-driven, not guesses — each is backed by observed data patterns.
BrontoScope provides actionable guidance to move forward, including:
  • Suggested queries to run
  • Services or systems to inspect
  • Metrics to validate
  • Additional logs or time windows to review
This reduces time-to-resolution by guiding your investigation.

​
4. Supporting Evidence

Every conclusion is backed by transparent data:
  • Underlying queries executed by the AI
  • Relevant log samples
  • Generated charts and trends
  • Time-based comparisons
You can validate, refine, or extend the investigation at any time.

​
Key Benefits

​
No Prompt Required

BrontoScope requires zero input from the user. It:
  • Understands the context of the selected error
  • Determines relevant queries automatically
  • Executes a full investigation workflow

​
Fast Time to Insight

  • Results delivered in under 10 seconds
  • Eliminates manual querying and correlation
  • Reduces mean time to detection (MTTD) and resolution (MTTR)

​
Explainable AI

Unlike black-box systems, BrontoScope shows:
  • How conclusions were reached
  • What data was used
  • Which queries were executed
This ensures trust and auditability.

​
When to Use BrontoScope

Use BrontoScope whenever you:
  • Encounter a new or unfamiliar error
  • Need to quickly assess impact
  • Want to validate whether an issue is widespread
  • Are debugging production incidents
  • Need a starting point for deeper investigation

​
Best Practices

  • Start with the first occurrence of an error for cleaner insights
  • Compare multiple investigations if the issue evolves over time
  • Use the generated queries to drill deeper into specific hypotheses
  • Combine with dashboards and alerts for full observability coverage

​
Limitations

  • Results depend on available log and telemetry data
  • AI-generated causes are probabilistic, not guaranteed root causes
  • Complex multi-system failures may require further manual investigation

​
Summary

BrontoScope transforms error investigation from a manual, time-consuming process into an instant, AI-driven workflow. By combining automated analysis, clear explanations, and actionable insights, it enables teams to:
  • Detect issues faster
  • Understand impact immediately
  • Resolve incidents more efficiently
