The following updates were released to the Kentik platform for AI / Insights during May 2026.

Features

  • AI Advisor Cloud Pathfinder visualization: AI Advisor now renders hop-by-hop network path diagrams for cloud traffic, showing entity types, VPC associations, AWS regions, and reachability status.
  • AI Advisor usage tab: New "AI Advisor Usage" tab in AI Settings shows AI assistant usage analytics over selectable time ranges.
  • Create runbooks from AI Advisor: Users can create, retrieve, and update runbooks directly from AI Advisor conversations, with automatic linking to alert policies and session tracking.
  • AI Advisor alerting tools: Adds single-alert lookup, device enrichment in alert details, and a new Alert Statistics tool for aggregated counts, trends, and top-N rankings.
  • Notification template AI helper: "Ask AI" assistance is now integrated into the notification template editor for context-aware help with template creation and debugging.
  • AI Advisor disabled-tool visibility: AI Advisor can now display unavailable tools along with the reason they are disabled (RBAC or missing features), so users know how to enable them.
  • DeviceConfigTool search improvements: Device config search now uses a token-budget model with configurable search_token_limit and context window controls for denser, more predictable results.
  • GPT-5.5 model support: The AI gateway now offers GPT-5.5 and removes deprecated models so only current, supported models are available.

Bug Fixes

  • AI Advisor NMS saved views fix: Fixed execution and listing of NMS (Metrics Explorer) saved views that previously returned "invalid query data" errors.
  • AI Advisor synthetic test label filtering: Fixed the non-functional label filter in the synthetics status tool, enabling case-insensitive filtering of synthetic tests by label.
  • AI Advisor single-metric NMS queries: The NMS tool now enforces one metric per query for more consistent results and validation.
  • AI Advisor device RBAC centralization: Device RBAC is now centralized in the agent, ensuring AI Advisor consistently honors device permissions and removes fail-open behavior.
