Modern teams face a persistent challenge: knowing when something goes wrong before their customers do. With architectures sprawling across dozens or hundreds of services, creating comprehensive alerting becomes an overwhelming task. You're left playing whack-a-mole with manual alert configurations, often missing critical issues or drowning in false positives. Today, we're excited to announce our solution to this challenge: Anomaly Detection (currently in alpha), Honeycomb's proactive approach to understanding and acting on service health.

In the months since we launched our public beta, we’ve been hard at work making Honeycomb MCP more useful and capable for agents and human operators alike. Our goal with this project has been, from the start, to allow AI to engage in the same kind of investigatory loops that we guide users towards. Many of the new features are designed expressly with this in mind, the most exciting of which is BubbleUp, now available in.

Did you know you can define a calculated field in your Honeycomb queries? You can, and with the power of Honeycomb AI you can ask it to write the calculated field definition for you. Find out how in this short video.
