BlastRadius: verified architecture maps plus decision-scored incident triage
The problem
The investigation layer is the MTTR gap: engineers spend 20-40 minutes correlating signals across services, dashboards, and deploys before any fixing begins. Architecture diagrams rot within weeks of being drawn, and runbooks assume failure modes that no longer exist. Existing AI SRE tools investigate from the model's own knowledge rather than from a trustworthy map of the actual system.
The idea
Why now
Archify showed agents can generate verifiable architecture diagrams from a codebase on demand, so maps can stay fresh automatically. Microsoft-Decision-1 delivers calibrated per-option scoring at 35x the speed of GPT-6-class models, making per-alert ranked classification cheap enough to run on every page. The two together make topology-grounded triage a deploy hook, not a research project.
What it combines
Verifiable architecture diagrams (agent-generated, source-grounded, deterministic) plus fast decision-scoring models (calibrated probabilities over fixed option sets). The mix matters because the map removes the hallucination surface that plagues AI SRE tools, and the decision model turns the map into a ranked answer fast enough for a 3am page.
MVP
GitHub Action that regenerates the map on merge to main, plus a PagerDuty webhook that overlays the alerting service and returns ranked components with probabilities. Deliberately skip auto-remediation; this release only points.
Distribution
B2B through incident-management marketplaces: a PagerDuty/Opsgenie integration sold to SRE teams at mid-size SaaS companies, priced per incident triaged or per seat.
Why it wins
incident.io AI SRE and Sherlocks.ai investigate with AI but from the model's training knowledge, not a verified map of your infra. Rootly and FireHydrant automate process, not topology-aware triage. BlastRadius grounds every suggestion in a map regenerated from the code that is actually deployed.
Risks
Map regeneration cost and latency on large monorepos could make the 'fresh on every deploy' promise false. De-risk by measuring generation time on three real repos first and caching maps per deploy, regenerating only what changed.
