AI Insights
AI-generated analysis of your engineering metrics -- anomaly detection, trend identification, risk signals, and actionable recommendations powered by Koalr AI.
The AI Insights dashboard (/insights) uses Koalr AI to analyze your engineering metrics and surface findings that would be difficult to spot manually. Instead of scanning dashboards for anomalies, you get a prioritized feed of insights ranked by severity.
Plan requirement
AI Insights is available on the Growth plan and above. Organizations on the Starter plan see an upgrade prompt listing the capabilities they unlock by upgrading.
How insights are generated
Click Generate insights (or Refresh insights if you already have results) on the Insights page. Koalr AI analyzes your current metric data across several domains and returns a list of findings.
Data sources
Insights are generated from the following metric families:
| Metric domain | Metrics analyzed |
|---|---|
| DORA | Lead time, deployment frequency, change failure rate, MTTR |
| Flow | PR cycle time, throughput |
| Review | Review queue depth, review SLA compliance |
| Value stream | Flow efficiency, value stream lead time |
Each insight links back to the relevant dashboard so you can investigate further.
Insight types
Every insight is classified into one of four types:
| Type | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Anomaly | A metric has deviated significantly from its recent baseline |
| Trend | A sustained directional change in a metric over time |
| Risk | A metric or combination of metrics indicates a potential problem |
| Recommendation | An actionable suggestion to improve a specific area |
Severity levels
Insights are ranked by severity, with the most urgent items appearing first:
- Critical -- requires immediate attention. Displayed with a red left border.
- Warning -- a developing issue that may escalate. Displayed with an amber left border.
- Info -- useful context or a positive trend. Displayed with an indigo left border.
Filtering and dismissing
The summary bar at the top of the page shows the total insight count along with critical and warning counts. Use the filter buttons (All, Critical, Warning, Info) to narrow the list.
Dismiss individual insights by clicking the X button on each card. Dismissed insights are removed from the list and will not reappear unless a new analysis generates them again.
Prerequisites
AI Insights requires the ANTHROPIC_API_KEY environment variable to be configured on the API. If the key is missing, the page displays a setup prompt after you attempt to generate insights.
