Now tracing eBPF, no agents required

See the incident
before it surfaces.

Tidewell pulls traces, logs and metrics into one calm surface, so platform teams find the cause while the graph is still flat.

Most outages announce themselves quietly. A retry here, a slow query there. Tidewell listens for the ripple, joins it to the change that caused it, and tells you in a sentence.

#01 · Traces

Every request, end to end, without touching code.

An eBPF collector watches the wire, so traces arrive from day one and services you forgot about show up too.

Zero-instrumentation capture
HTTP, gRPC, Postgres and Kafka spans straight from the kernel.
Hot-path highlighting
The slowest span glows, with the reason written underneath.

pg.acquire waited 214 ms for a connection. Pool max dropped from 40 to 20 in deploy #4182.
#02 · Signals

Baselines that know Tuesday from Black Friday.

Each service learns its own normal by hour and weekday, so alerts fire on what is unusual, not on what is merely busy.

Seasonal baselines
No thresholds to tune. No 3am page for a traffic spike you expected.
Change correlation
Every anomaly is joined to the deploy, flag or config change beside it.

#03 · Response

From ripple to rollback in three moves.

Tidewell does the detective work, so whoever is on call starts with an answer rather than a dashboard.

Owner-aware routing
Pages go to the team that owns the service, with context attached.
One-click rollback
Revert the offending deploy straight from the alert.
  1. 01

    Detect

    Baselines learn each service's normal by hour and weekday. Deviations surface in seconds, not after a threshold breach.

  2. 02

    Explain

    Tidewell joins the anomaly to deploys, flag flips and config changes, then writes the likely cause in one sentence.

  3. 03

    Route

    The owning team gets the page with the trace, the diff and a rollback button. Everyone else keeps sleeping.

Plugs into the stack you already run.

OpenTelemetry native, with one-click imports for the dashboards you are tired of maintaining.
