Sentry announced new capabilities for Seer, its AI-powered debugging agent, extending debugging support to local development and code review, and introducing a simplified, flat pricing model with unlimited usage.
“Wherever code breaks, Seer helps you fix it faster,” said Sentry CEO Milin Desai. “It’s the next step in Sentry’s evolution; a fundamentally smarter way to understand what’s happening with your code from development to production, and how to fix it.”
Seer is built on Sentry’s production telemetry, including errors, traces, logs, and metrics. That runtime context allows Seer to diagnose failures that cannot be reliably identified through static code analysis alone, particularly in distributed systems where issues often cross service and infrastructure boundaries.
“After more than a decade of helping developers find and tackle bugs, Sentry has an unrivaled understanding of what breaks in production and why,” Desai said. “With that context, we can move beyond flagging issues after the fact to explaining them in real time, automatically identifying the root cause for developers and their coding agents, and even anticipating problems before code goes live.”
Seer combines source code with live application behavior to identify these problems, including:
- Failures that propagate across services or network boundaries
- Latency spikes caused by contention or resource saturation
- Errors that occur only under production traffic patterns
By analyzing how software actually behaves, Seer focuses on determining why a failure occurred, not just where it surfaced.
“Failures in modern systems often cannot be debugged by simply reading the code,” Indragie Karunaratne, director of engineering at Sentry said. “Seer is designed for that reality. It looks at how services behave together at runtime, which makes it possible to identify root causes that static analysis and code review alone can’t catch.”
With this release, Sentry is expanding Seer’s role beyond production debugging to support developers earlier in their workflow.
Seer connects to local coding agents through the Sentry MCP server. As developers reproduce bugs locally, application telemetry is sent to Sentry, where Seer can analyze raw events and perform root cause analysis. That context can be used by coding agents to generate fixes before code is committed.
Seer can analyze pull requests to identify defects likely to cause production failures. The system is designed to focus on high-impact issues rather than stylistic feedback, helping teams catch real bugs before code is merged.
When bugs reach production, Seer automatically identifies the most actionable issues and performs root cause analysis in the background. When sufficient context exists, it can generate suggested code changes or delegate fixes to supported coding agents.
Sentry is also developing an experimental capability that allows developers to ask Seer open-ended questions about their telemetry. This feature is intended for investigations that begin with symptoms rather than a clearly identified bug, such as unexplained performance regressions or anomalous trends. The capability is currently available in early preview for select customers.
“Seer represents our broader vision: Sentry as the intelligence and reasoning layer for modern software development, and as a platform teams use to see, explain, and fix what matters,” Desai said.

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 ...

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 ...
