SteadyNines vs AI SRE tools: Resolve, Cleric and Devin
AI SRE tools investigate alerts and incidents to help on-call find the cause faster.
SteadyNines starts earlier, on burn rate, and goes further, to the code fix.
| Typical AI SRE tool | SteadyNines | |
|---|---|---|
| Starts on | An alert or paged incident | Error budget burn, before breach |
| Root-cause investigation | Yes | Yes, via the Context Graph |
| Takes operational action | Varies | Yes, with autonomy you set |
| Fixes code | Rarely | Yes, in the developer’s IDE |
| Organised around SLOs | Rarely | Always |
Which one fits.
Choose an AI SRE tool if faster incident investigation is the main need. Choose SteadyNines if the goal is SLOs kept and repeat incidents removed.
- SteadyNinesActs on the burn. Budget kept
- Burn-rate alertingPages a person to work it out
- Incident response, AI SREStarts once users are hit
- SLO reportingYou learn you missed it
Questions
Is SteadyNines an AI SRE tool?
It includes one. The SteadyNines AI SRE investigates and stops the burn, but it starts on burn rate rather than on a page, and it hands the cause to the AI Engineer for a code fix.
When does each one start?
Most AI SRE tools start when an alert fires or an incident is paged. SteadyNines starts when error budget burn crosses your threshold, while the SLO is still met.
Does SteadyNines act on its own?
Only for situation types you’ve allowed. Every situation type starts at Propose or Ask.
