About Sentry
Sentry is pushing past collection into interpretation, with Seer and AI-generated dashboards.
Two AI surfaces now anchor the changelog: the Seer agent in open beta and an AI dashboard-generation beta. Underneath, the platform keeps broadening ingestion and alerting — metrics reach .NET and Unity, logs reach Kotlin Multiplatform, uptime monitors gain alert configuration, metrics beta gains alerting, and Alerts is splitting into Monitors and Alerts. Size Analysis and org-level Data Forwarding reached GA.
