The Deep Response Engine is CloudThinker’s incident lifecycle module. It carries every event from first signal to resolved incident — noise reduction, escalation, root cause analysis, remediation, and memory. Most monitoring stacks tell you something is wrong and stop there. The Deep Response Engine tells you why: Pulse filters and correlates signals before they page anyone, and Incident starts investigating the moment a cluster escalates — often before an on-call engineer opens a laptop.

How it works

No stage requires a manual handoff — each layer feeds the next automatically:
  1. Collect — events stream in from sources like AWS, Datadog, Slack, and PagerDuty into one Pulse feed.
  2. Filter and correlate — suppression layers remove duplicates, rate-limited bursts, and flapping resources. Related signals are grouped into clusters, so nine alerts about the same node pool become one item.
  3. Classify and escalate — every signal gets a category, canonical severity, and actionability score. When a cluster is Critical or High, or the AI marks it actionable, it escalates to an incident automatically.
  4. Investigate — an AI agent forms explicit hypotheses, tests each one against metrics and logs, and produces a structured report: most likely root cause, evidence chain, and ruled-out theories.
  5. Resolve and remember — the agent matches your runbooks to the root cause and executes them under the autonomy mode you set (Manual or Auto). Each resolution feeds incident memory, making the next investigation faster.
Every investigation step is visible — which hypothesis was confirmed, which was ruled out, and why.

What you can do

Key concepts

Get started

Connect signal sources

Connect AWS, Slack, Teams, and webhook sources to start feeding Pulse.

Set up webhook integrations

Route alerts from PagerDuty, Datadog, CloudWatch, and more into the response loop.

Add runbooks

Give agents the procedures they can execute during remediation.
