Embedded AI

AI capabilities built natively into the Checkmk platform.

Explain with AI: No prompts, no chat, just a button. Decode complex incidents, get the root cause and the suggested fixes instantly in plain language. Explain with AI offers root cause analysis per host and helps cut time-to-resolution and alert fatigue by manifold.

Root Cause Analysis (RCA) module (coming soon): Powerful site-wide, cross-host analysis, turning alert storms into a single, ranked list and tracing connections between incidents across your entire environment. Coming to Checkmk Pro, Ultimate and Cloud.

Enabled AI

AI needs your unique monitoring context to operate reliably, and Checkmk now offers that context to AI tools and agents you already have in your stack.

Checkmk MCP server: Connect your own AI tools and agents to live Checkmk data. It is completely safe and foolproof with read-only access to your full Checkmk site, and access controls that are enforced per user via RBAC. The MCP server enables site-wide root cause analysis from within any external AI tool.

See it in action

A payment API fails. The alert points to the API itself, but the root cause is three hosts away, on a database disk affected by a batch job on a completely different machine. Checkmk's MCP server, connected to a user's own agent, traces the failure back through the chain and identifies the actual cause in plain language — something that would be hard to piece together by hand, even for an experienced admin.
