Prometheus + NeuBird AI: From PromQL to Plain-Language Root Cause
NeuBird AI reads every scraped metric, recording rule, and firing alert from Prometheus, correlating them against your full stack to deliver root cause analysis without a single PromQL query.

Core Capabilities
From signals to solutions
Prevent
Detect metric anomalies before alert thresholds fire
NeuBird AI continuously reads Prometheus scrape data, comparing current metric trajectories against historical baselines across all label dimensions, catching service degradation, error rate creep, and saturation trends before they breach your alert thresholds.
- Baseline deviation detection across all scraped targets and label sets
- Correlates new deployments (via CI/CD integrations) with emerging metric shifts
- Surfaces risky changes before they escalate to a PagerDuty wake-up
Resolve
Cross-metric root cause without writing a single PromQL query
When Alertmanager fires, NeuBird AI pulls from Prometheus and every other connected tool simultaneously, correlating error rates, latency histograms, saturation metrics, and infrastructure signals into a precise, actionable root cause.
- Automatic correlation across Prometheus metrics, logs, and traces
- Label-aware analysis: instantly isolates the exact instance, pod, or region at fault
- Evidence-based RCA delivered in plain language to your incident channel
Operate
Reduce cardinality, fix scrape gaps, cut storage costs
NeuBird AI analyzes your Prometheus metric cardinality, scrape interval mismatches, and unused recording rules to surface cost-saving opportunities and observability blind spots your team hasn't had bandwidth to address.
- Identify high-cardinality label explosions burning storage and query performance
- Detect services missing Prometheus instrumentation
- Recommend recording rule consolidation and retention right-sizing

FAQ
Common questions
Does NeuBird AI require changes to my Prometheus configuration?
No. NeuBird AI connects to Prometheus via its HTTP API using a read-only access token. No exporters, sidecars, or config changes are needed.
Can NeuBird AI read my Alertmanager alerts?
Yes. NeuBird AI reads Alertmanager alert state and notification history as additional signal inputs, correlating them with the underlying metric data to build a complete incident picture.
Does NeuBird AI work with Prometheus-compatible systems like Thanos or Mimir?
Yes. NeuBird AI supports any Prometheus-compatible HTTP API endpoint, including Thanos, Cortex, Mimir, and VictoriaMetrics.
How does NeuBird AI handle high-cardinality metric environments?
NeuBird AI's context engine is designed for high-cardinality environments. It reads label metadata to build a topology model of your services, using that context to narrow correlation to the exact dimensions relevant to an incident.
Can NeuBird AI help us write better alert rules?
Yes. Based on observed metric patterns and past incidents, NeuBird AI can recommend new alert rules, identify redundant thresholds, and surface services that lack coverage entirely.
