Availability to eliminate downtime

AI resolves outages before they occur and maintain less than 5 minutes of unplanned downtime per year with AI-driven predictive health.

95%

Reduction of alert noise 

Stop burying your experts in a mountain of false positives. With autonomous agents and proactive AI-driven filtering you’ll eliminate thousands of non-actionable tickets each month, allowing your IT team to pivot from constant firefighting to focusing strictly on the critical events that impact your bottom line.

> 2

Seconds for complex responses

Remove the manual bottleneck of ticket categorization and initial diagnosis. AI-driven agents provide context-aware responses to complex incidents in under two seconds, performing the heavy lifting of initial diagnostics so your team can pivot immediately to high-value resolution.

4-for-1

Scale operational headcount

Organizations implementing AI for IT operations achieve a 35% reduction in operational overhead, delivering a 4x return on investment by automating manual tasks that traditionally require 24/7 staffing.

Is your IT team stuck in the capacity trap?

Most IT organizations are stuck in a reactive loop, identifying symptoms rather than driving innovation. By shifting from reactive fixing to predictive prevention, you can move from spending 90% of your time on "run" tasks to dedicating 60% of your time deploying innovative IT solutions. 

Where to implement AIOps?

Implement AI across IT Operations (ITOps) to optimize for speed and scale

Break free from the "capacity trap" of manual maintenance. By integrating AI for IT Operations (AIOps), you replace manual scripting with intelligent incident management automation and automated root cause analysis (RCA). Pythian’s solutions leverage machine learning in IT to resolve configuration drift and handle complex diagnostics, allowing your team to pivot from firefighting to high-velocity innovation.

AIOps to automate incident and problem management

Group hundreds of separate alerts into a single major incident, preventing your team from being buried in thousands of separate tickets for one root cause.

Automate root cause analysis (RCA) using AI agents to cross-reference changes, logs, and metrics to point directly to the likely culprit in seconds. Deploy intelligent routing—AI analyzes the content of a ticket and automatically routes it to the right team.

Predictive change risk assessment and lifecycle management

Change is the #1 cause of outages. Implement AI to ensure you can move faster without breaking things. 

AI agents will automatically map out how your applications are connected. Before you hit "deploy," AI will analyze the success rate of similar past changes and the current health of the environment to give you a Risk Score. High-risk changes get flagged for human review; low-risk ones are auto-approved.

Predictive analytics for capacity planning and observability

Keep costs down while ensuring applications are running with peak performance. AI looks at historical trends and scales your resources up before the traffic and volume increase, then scales them down the moment it leaves to save your business money. AI identifies "zombie" servers or over-provisioned databases that are costing you money but providing zero value. Better control costs, leverage AI to make more informed decisions.

“Most organizations find the highest immediate ROI by applying AI to incident noise reduction first. This clears the 'capacity trap,' providing the air cover needed for more complex automation.”

By integrating intelligent agents and machine learning into your existing workflows, we help you eliminate technical debt and focus on innovation.

Intelligent alert noise reduction

Stop fighting the flood of false positives. AI agents correlate disparate signals across your entire stack, suppressing the 'noise' and surfacing only the critical, actionable events. 

AI-driven dynamic baselines

AI-driven Dynamic Baselining learns the unique 'heartbeat' of your infrastructure, automatically adjusting alert triggers based on time of day, day of week, and seasonal cycles. Identify true anomalies in real-time

Predictive SLO forecasting

AI analyzes your error budget burn rate in real-time, forecasting potential breaches hours or days before they occur. Transform your operations from reactive firefighting to predictive reliability, ensuring you meet your business commitments every time.

AI ticket triage agents

AI Agents read, enrich, and route complex service requests in under two seconds. By providing instant context-aware diagnostics and automated routing, we ensure your experts spend their time solving problems, not sorting through queues.

Automated runbooks

AI-driven Automated Runbooks transform static documentation into executable intelligence. By automatically triggering pre-approved resolution workflows the moment an anomaly is detected, we enable self-healing infrastructure that resolves incidents in seconds—not hours.

Generative AI postmortems

Generative AI agents automatically reconstruct incident timelines, synthesize chat and log data, and draft comprehensive Root Cause Analysis (RCA) reports in seconds. Transform your incident response into a continuous learning loop that prevents future outages before they start.

Predictive change risk assessment

AI analyzes historical patterns, system dependencies, and real-time environment health to assign a risk score to every change before it happens. Accelerate your deployment velocity by auto-approving low-risk updates while stopping high-risk incidents before they impact your customers.
