The work it takes off your plate

The Contextual Triage Agent addresses the challenge of slow incident resolution in IT by providing context-aware triaging of issues. Manual triage processes can lead to delays and misdiagnoses, resulting in prolonged downtime and user frustration.

How it works

The Contextual Triage Agent continuously collects new and updated incidents from ITSM platforms, then enriches each record with related logs, monitoring signals, deployment changes, cloud resource events, identity context, and endpoint posture. It normalizes duplicate alerts and user-reported symptoms, identifies affected services and dependencies, and evaluates severity, business impact, urgency, and probable cause. The agent assigns a recommended priority and resolver group, explains its reasoning with linked evidence, and routes the incident through the appropriate workflow. It monitors acknowledgments and status changes, escalates unresolved critical issues, and records analyst feedback to improve future triage decisions while preserving an auditable incident history.

  1. Step 1: Collect Incident Data

    • Gather information from users about the incident
    • Analyze system logs and performance metrics

    Result: A comprehensive overview of the incident context.

  2. Step 2: Categorize and Prioritize

    • Classify the incident based on severity and impact
    • Assign priority levels for resolution

    Result: A prioritized list of incidents ready for action.

  3. Step 3: Assign to Appropriate Teams

    • Route incidents to the relevant support teams
    • Provide context for faster resolution

    Result: Incidents are directed to the right teams for efficient handling.

Why use it

  • Faster Resolution. Enriches incidents with relevant operational context before responders begin investigation.
  • More Accurate Prioritization. Combines business impact, service health, user scope, and technical evidence to recommend consistent severity levels.
  • Smarter Routing. Identifies the most appropriate resolver team using service ownership, affected technology, and historical assignment patterns.
  • Reduced Alert Noise. Correlates duplicate alerts and related tickets so teams focus on distinct, actionable incidents.
  • Auditable Decisions. Preserves evidence, reasoning, routing actions, and analyst feedback for operational review.
