ScienceLogic has launched Skylar Advisor, an AI-native platform component designed to proactively guide IT operations by transforming overwhelming data into verifiable, actionable recommendations. Unlike retrofitted AI tools, it combines real-time observability with customer-owned knowledge to deliver transparent and explainable guidance, helping teams prioritize and resolve issues faster.
ScienceLogic launches Skylar Advisor, an AI-native advisor for IT ops.
It delivers proactive, verifiable guidance using enterprise data and knowledge.
The tool moves beyond alert surfacing to prioritize and explain critical issues.
It features a conversational interface and role-based guidance (Persona Wizard).
Every recommendation is evidence-backed for traceability and trust.
It aims to reduce manual analysis and enable faster, more confident decisions.
Modern IT teams are inundated with data from siloed tools but lack the actionable insight needed for swift resolution. Skylar Advisor addresses this by automating the interpretation of operational knowledge. It continuously reasons across telemetry, topology, and historical data to surface the most critical problems, explaining them in plain language and guiding teams toward effective next steps, thereby reducing reliance on scarce expert knowledge and tribal know-how.
Built as a core component of the ScienceLogic AI Platform, Skylar Advisor is distinguished by its knowledge-centric design. It unifies real-time observability with curated enterprise knowledge—such as documentation and verified fixes—into a single corpus. This foundation allows it to generate evidence-backed recommendations with explicit traceability to the source data, ensuring verifiability and building operational trust that generic, chat-based AI assistants often lack.
Skylar Advisor shifts IT from a reactive to a proactive stance. Key capabilities include automated 'Advisories' that summarize critical issues, a conversational 'Ask Skylar' interface for instant context-aware answers, and a 'Persona Wizard' that tailors guidance to different user roles. By automating knowledge capture and application, it empowers junior engineers to resolve issues confidently and frees senior staff to focus on higher-value optimization and innovation initiatives.
The launch underscores a move towards embedding intelligent, explainable AI directly into IT workflows. "Skylar Advisor applies AI reasoning directly to operational reality – not abstract prompts or generic models," said Dave Link, CEO of ScienceLogic. This approach is designed to help organizations act faster, reduce risk, and turn their data and institutional knowledge into a tangible competitive advantage in daily operations.
