CUSTOMER SUPPORT

CEO-triaged proactive outreach for novel error patterns

When Datadog surfaces an unrecognized error pattern, the CEO agent investigates the logs, decides whether and how to reach out, drafts a customer-specific Intercom message.

What it does

For errors that don't match a known signature, this hands the raw log cluster to the CEO agent. The agent reads the logs, reasons about blast radius and likely cause, decides which customers warrant a proactive Intercom note, drafts each message in the right tone, and pages on-call when it judges the incident severe — replacing a fixed rule with situational judgment.

When to use it

Use it as the catch-all for error patterns your deterministic rules don't yet cover, where a human-like read of the logs decides the response. Pair it with the rule-based flows for known signatures.

How it works

  1. 1A Datadog monitor fires on an anomalous, unclassified error cluster.
  2. 2The CEO agent pulls the relevant logs and affected customer context from Datadog and Postgres.
  3. 3The agent assesses severity and decides the outreach plan and message wording per customer.
  4. 4For severe incidents the agent triggers PagerDuty to wake on-call.
  5. 5The agent sends each chosen customer a bespoke Intercom message.
  6. 6It writes a short incident note to Postgres so the next run has memory of what was already handled.

Set it up

What you configure once, before turning it on.

    Connect IntercomConversations, contacts, articles.
  4. 4
    Connect PagerDutyIncidents, on-call, escalations.
  5. 5
    Set each agent's modelWe leave models unset so you pick the tier — fast + cheap, or top-quality.
  6. 6
    Tune it to your dataEdit the prompts, filters, and field mappings so it matches how your team works.
  7. 7
