Honeycomb Previews AI SRE Team Agents
Understand this story
At Innovation Week, Honeycomb previewed Team Agents: a class of agents that join teams as AI SRE colleagues and proactively inspect releases, investigate alerts, improve instrumentation, and maintain documentation in the background according to user-set goals, rather than only responding after alerts are triggered. Honeycomb says Personal agents are included in all Honeycomb plans; Team agents are offered with Honeycomb Intelligence for Pro and Enterprise plans, billed by agent working time rather than by tokens. Team Agents are planned to be generally available on December 1 at re:Invent.

Honeycomb is previewing Team Agents, AI SRE agents that run in the background on user-defined goals—such as verifying releases, flagging Lambda spend, improving instrumentation, investigating alerts, and maintaining docs—and report findings with linked evidence. The agents are built on Honeycomb's high-cardinality traces, use MCP connectors for additional context, and offer per-goal autonomy levels from Observe to Operate with per-action permissions. Personal agents will be included on every Honeycomb plan, while Team Agents will be available with Honeycomb Intelligence on Pro and Enterprise plans, priced by hours of agent work, and generally available at AWS re:Invent on December 1.
