Before you buy an Al SRE, find out what the Al you already pay for can do. If you have Claude Code, you have half of an Al SRE already. We broke a live Kubernetes cluster 50 ways (public SREGym benchmark), then had the same coding agent investigate every failure under different setups. One - with standard kubectl CLI access. It reached a correct diagnosis within two minutes 60% of the time. Already not bad. Two - when we also gave it a clear view of the cluster, like what was failing and what had changed recently (with Radar MCP), it was 86%. Same model. Three - tried a few Al SRE tools. Some of the common names you'd expect if you Google it (full details in radar site if you're curious). None of them reached the same accuracy as Claude Code with Radar MCP, and all of them were at least twice as slow, some much worse. They also burned a *lot* more tokens doing it. When you have an outage, you don't want your agent spending 10 minutes gathering context, building the model of what is going on using tools that weren't designed for it and getting lost in piles of YAML. and not even getting a better result in the end. So what does an Al SRE get you? Some general prompt on how to debug kubernetes, triggers on alerts, and maybe a nicer Ul than claude's terminal output (I'm exaggerating a bit, but you get the point). Guess what? Radar Cloud now gives you all of this as well, and cheaper than any Al SRE tool out there that publishes pricing.
