Moat
Knowledge base grounding and tribal knowledge integration unique to agents; automated postmortem generation drives continuous improvement.
Key risk
Agents may cause false resolutions or miss critical context; adoption requires team trust in AI-driven incident response; competition from tools like PagerDuty.
Why now
Incident complexity growing; teams undersized; agentic reasoning now mature enough for incident triage.

About

Probe is an incident management platform built for AI agents. It uses a knowledge base to ground agents in the context buried across a team's stack and surfaces the right pieces the moment an engineer is paged. When an incident hits, the agent is already working from the team's tribal knowledge: what happened and why, who has touched the code before, where it broke last time, and who to wake versus who to let sleep. Engineers debug faster and simply approve the fix. Once resolved, Probe writes the postmortems and updates your knowledge base so every incident makes the next one easier.
