I let Claude investigate a production incident with Honeybadger's MCP server In this demo, Kevin shows how you can use Honeybadger's MCP server with Claude to investigate a production incident — going from a natural language prompt to a complete incident dashboard in…

Your metrics are green. No errors, no downtime, latency looks fine.

Except 22 carts got abandoned last week because checkouts were slow for some users.

Kevin used Claude + Honeybadger's MCP server to find the pattern.

A 5-star testimonial about Honeybadger: "The fact that I can, within maybe 30 minutes, get an answer to a support question from someone who's actually working on the product and in many cases one of the cofounders of the company, is straight up ridiculous." —Software developer in banking Review from Gartner Peer Insights

Everything you need to know about Ruby 4.0 The Ruby 4.0 release is the 30th birthday of the language! Read to understand everything that's changed in Ruby 4, and how to upgrade with the least friction.

Did you know that Ruby doesn’t follow semantic versioning? I didn’t, until I wrote this Ruby 4.0 upgrade guide :) www.honeybadger.io/blog/ruby-4/

Awesome! We have a related blog post coming out soon. 👀

Finally experimented with some #MCP servers for myself. Mixed results. I feel like this can be useful, but I need to work on my AGENTS.md file. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Was for @honeybadger.io which has a great MCP. Shout out to you all 🥳

2025 year in review: APM, logging, and more This year Honeybadger shipped new APM dashboards, real-time alerts for metrics and logs, EU data residency, an MCP server for AI assistants, and so much more.

Read our 2025 year in review: www.honeybadger.io/blog/2025-re...

Honeybadger team collage from 2025 conferences featuring team selfies, booth setup with "Application Monitoring for your whole stack" banner, San Francisco Ruby Conference at Gateway Pavilion, group dinner, wooden skate decks with Honeybadger artwork, and "Future Proof Software" presentation backdrop.

In 2025, we hit the conference circuit—RailsConf, Laracon, ElixirConf, to name a few.

We shipped smart "Just Enough APM™" dashboards, Insights Alarms, an EU data region, plus integrations with @incident.io, @rootly.com, and more.

Thanks for a great year. See you in 2026! 🧡

Thanks so much Travis, that’s what we love to hear!

Heroku vs. Kubernetes Compare Heroku and Kubernetes for application deployment. Learn when to choose each platform for application deployment.

Heroku makes sense until your app grows and you hit specific limitations. Many companies use it for years before those constraints become a problem. But when they do, some teams opt for Kubernetes.

We wrote a guide on the tradeoffs:

Fix production errors with honeybadger-mcp-server and GitHub Copilot agents. (This is a Rails agent, but you could adapt this to your preferred framework/language.)

Thanks Mike, will do!
