Honeycomb announced the launch of Honeycomb Intelligence, an AI-native observability suite optimized for developers.
The new AI-powered products accelerate debugging and code delivery by bringing observability into the IDE, improve investigations with an interactive co-pilot, and automatically detect performance anomalies. By combining the unmatched speed of Honeycomb's proprietary database with seamless access to terabytes of contextual data, Honeycomb Intelligence empowers every developer to understand their systems without slowing down.
Honeycomb Intelligence provides teams with a collaborative assistant that can deliver sub-second query responses across billions of events—performance that makes real-time AI assistance possible. Honeycomb's event-based observability model means AI insights get richer as your systems grow more complex, not slower or more expensive.
"Existing observability solutions aren't built for the AI era, where speed, interactivity, and scale are paramount," said Emily Nakashima, SVP of Engineering at Honeycomb. "Honeycomb Intelligence allows us to redefine what is possible for observability tools. Every engineer can debug like an expert from day one and teams can build truly interactive feedback loops that work 10x faster."
Honeycomb Intelligence introduces three new products that address critical needs in modern engineering workflows. This unified suite is seamlessly integrated and works out of the box, without requiring teams to orchestrate different AI tools or worry about agent-to-agent communication failures.
- Honeycomb MCP Server accelerates debugging and code delivery by bringing Honeycomb's powerful observability model directly into AI-powered IDEs such as Cursor and Claude Code. Developers can investigate issues, run BubbleUp on them, detect outliers, and visualize heatmaps and histograms without leaving their workflow.
- Honeycomb Canvas transforms complexity into confident action with an AI-guided workspace that pairs natural language interaction with rich, interactive visualizations. Engineers can ask questions, run multi-step investigations, and seamlessly share insights with teammates inside Honeycomb or in tools like Slack.
- Honeycomb Anomaly Detection is an early warning system for service health that learns normal service behavior and highlights meaningful deviations before they impact customers. It reduces false positives and eliminates alert fatigue so that teams can focus on fixing real problems instead of chasing noise.
Honeycomb Intelligence is available now to all Honeycomb customers at no additional cost.

For years, infrastructure teams have treated compute as a relatively stable input. Capacity was provisioned, costs were forecasted, and performance expectations were set based on the assumption that identical resources behaved identically. That mental model is starting to break down. AI infrastructure is no longer behaving like static cloud capacity. It is increasingly behaving like a market ...
Resilience can no longer be defined by how quickly an organization recovers from an incident or disruption. The effectiveness of any resilience strategy is dependent on its ability to anticipate change, operate under continuous stress, and adapt confidently amid uncertainty ...
Mobile users are less tolerant of app instability than ever before. According to a new report from Luciq, No Margin for Error: What Mobile Users Expect and What Mobile Leaders Must Deliver in 2026, even minor performance issues now result in immediate abandonment, lost purchases, and long-term brand impact ...
Artificial intelligence (AI) has become the dominant force shaping enterprise data strategies. Boards expect progress. Executives expect returns. And data leaders are under pressure to prove that their organizations are "AI-ready" ...
Agentic AI is a major buzzword for 2026. Many tech companies are making bold promises about this technology, but many aren't grounded in reality, at least not yet. This coming year will likely be shaped by reality checks for IT teams, and progress will only come from a focus on strong foundations and disciplined execution ...
AI systems are still prone to hallucinations and misjudgments ... To build the trust needed for adoption, AI must be paired with human-in-the-loop (HITL) oversight, or checkpoints where humans verify, guide, and decide what actions are taken. The balance between autonomy and accountability is what will allow AI to deliver on its promise without sacrificing human trust ...

Enterprise IT has become increasingly complex and fragmented. Organizations are juggling dozens — sometimes hundreds — of different tools for endpoint management, security, app delivery, and employee experience. Each one needs its own license, its own maintenance, and its own integration. The result is a patchwork of overlapping tools, data stuck in silos, security vulnerabilities, and IT teams are spending more time managing software than actually getting work done ...
2025 was the year everybody finally saw the cracks in the foundation. If you were running production workloads, you probably lived through at least one outage you could not explain to your executives without pulling up a diagram and a whiteboard ...
