Meet Auvik AI: Bringing Practical Intelligence to IT Operations

Apr 29, 2026 By Steve Petryschuk In Auvik
Across the IT industry, AI is being positioned as the next evolution of operations. But for many IT teams, AI still feels disconnected from the tools they rely on every day. Dashboards get smarter. Reports get faster. But workflows stay the same. Stuck in vendor silos or a CLI, IT teams have been looking for ways to bolt AI into workflows, but what often comes out is a Frankenstein-like web of APIs and MCP hosts. AI is meant to make life easier for IT teams – not make it more difficult.

How Auvik AI Solves the Biggest Challenges in IT Operations

Apr 29, 2026 By Steve Petryschuk In Auvik
Modern IT operations aren’t short on tools. Monitoring tools. Ticketing systems. Alerting platforms. Documentation repositories. Dashboards. Scripts. Runbooks. And yet, when something breaks, the workflow still looks strangely familiar: Somewhere along the way you’re asking yourself: Is the problem even here? This is the everyday friction of IT operations. Not the big outages. Its the constant small mysteries that take far longer to solve than they should.

Two AI agents, one incident: Rocky AI comes to the terminal

Apr 29, 2026 By Stefan Judis In Checkly
A Playwright Check fails at 2 am. The login flow is broken. Until today, that alert triggered a human to get up, open the Checkly dashboard, copy Rocky AI root cause analysis (RCA), and then tell an agent to get to work. There were two AI agents, one incident, and no way for them to talk to each other. The extended checkly checks and new checkly rca CLI commands close that gap. Your coding agent can now pull Rocky AI's analysis into its ongoing work, read the diagnosis, and go fix the code.

New in the Honeycomb Academy: Learn to Use the Honeycomb MCP

Apr 29, 2026 By Midge Pickett In Honeycomb
Two things happen when engineers first connect the Honeycomb MCP to their AI assistant. The first is the blank page problem. The Honeycomb UI gives you something to react to: a heatmap, a query builder, a trace to click into. An AI assistant gives you a cursor and nothing else. When you don't know where to start, that's a hard place to be. The second shows up right after you get past the first one. You ask a question, you get a confident-sounding answer, and you're not sure whether to trust it.

Testing AI Image Platforms From The Prompt Up

Testing AI Image Platforms From The Prompt Up

Apr 29, 2026 By OpsMatters In OpsMatters
Many AI image reviews begin at the end: they compare finished images and decide which one looks most impressive. That can be useful, but it misses something important. A finished image is only one part of the experience. The path from prompt to result matters just as much. When I tested AI Image Maker against other major platforms, I focused on how each product handled the full prompt journey, from the first instruction to the final usable image.

The Role Played by Artificial Intelligence in Product Design Nowadays

The Role Played by Artificial Intelligence in Product Design Nowadays

Apr 29, 2026 By OpsMatters In OpsMatters
Ever since artificial intelligence became the new normal, building products has also taken a completely different form. Before, designers used to depend on guesses and long testing periods. That isn't the case anymore. AI is able to study data, see the patterns in them and suggest better options. It isn't surprising that it has now become a necessity for several companies.
