Tsuga

What Tsuga does

Tsuga is an enterprise observability platform that runs entirely within a customer's cloud environment (AWS, GCP, Azure), providing AI-Native Resilient Observability. It allows organizations to collect, store, and query logs, metrics, and traces at scale without sampling or retention cuts. The platform is designed for data sovereignty, resilience, and governance, ensuring telemetry stays within the customer's VPC, encrypted with their keys, and governed by their rules. Tsuga manages the platform lifecycle and user experience, while the data plane remains in the customer's cloud. It offers a flat per-GB pricing model, eliminating infrastructure markups and per-host taxes, and includes a forward-deployed engineer to optimize pipelines and reduce costs. Tsuga is built to handle AI-scale data volumes and provides agent-first APIs for efficient AI agent investigations.

Products

• Log ManagementFast full-text search across all logs with flat per-GB pricing and no retention tax. Includes field-level transformation and routing rules.
• Application Performance Monitoring (APM)Distributed tracing at full fidelity with no per-host fees or forced sampling. Includes AI-assisted root cause analysis.
• Metrics and InfrastructureHigh-cardinality metrics without cardinality anxiety, allowing retention of all necessary dimensions.
• Observability PipelinesFilter, enrich, and route telemetry before it hits storage to reduce cost and improve quality at ingestion time.
• Sensitive Data ScannerDetects and redacts PII, credentials, and regulated data at the pipeline layer for compliance.

AI approach

Tsuga is an AI-Native Resilient Observability platform. It is built so that AI agents can use observability data effectively, affordably, and entirely within the user's own environment. The platform's storage and query layer handles the data volumes AI agents generate, and its APIs return relevant context rather than raw data dumps, allowing agents to focus on reasoning. It also enables monitoring of AI decisions in production and provides a foundation for causal analysis, automated root cause investigation, and agent-driven workflows.
