Get started with Foam

Foam monitors your production services and investigates incidents autonomously. It ingests traces, logs, and metrics over standard OTLP and connects to your codebase for root-cause analysis. The agent surfaces incidents worth your attention, pings the right engineers in Slack with the analysis, and proposes fixes as pull requests.

OpenTelemetry native

Foam ingests OpenTelemetry over OTLP. No proprietary agent, no custom protocol.

If you're already OTel-instrumented, add Foam as a second exporter pointing at otel.api.foam.ai. If you're not, the Foam SDKs can get you there.

Foam has been built to be a parallel destination. Whatever else is already shipping telemetry from your services (Datadog, Sentry, runtime logs) keeps working unchanged with Foam running alongside.

Integrations

Both connect via OAuth from your Foam account during sign up.

GitHub

Read access and create pull requests for root cause analysis.

Slack

Delivers incident pings, posts issue summaries, and answers ad-hoc questions in the channels your team already lives in.

What's next

  • SDKs First-party packages for Vercel / Next.js, Node, Ruby on Rails, the browser, and a build-time sourcemap uploader.
  • OpenTelemetry Protocol (OTLP) Upstream spec for the wire format Foam ingests.
