Dynatrace is a leading enterprise observability platform—AI-powered APM, infrastructure monitoring, log analytics, digital experience, and security in one suite. Firetiger focuses on the gap that broad observability misses: verifying each code change worked as intended, triaging issues automatically, and handing root cause directly to coding agents for a closed-loop fix.
Early access customers saw a 32% decrease in change-related issues within two weeks.
See how the two platforms differ on the features that matter most for engineering teams shipping fast with AI coding agents.

Dynatrace delivers broad, enterprise-grade observability: auto-discovered topology via Smartscape, deterministic AI-powered root cause analysis across applications and infrastructure, log analytics, real-user monitoring, and application security all under one subscription. Firetiger targets the narrower, upstream problem: understanding what each code change was supposed to do, verifying it did, and closing the loop through a one-click handoff to coding agents. For teams running Dynatrace today, Firetiger adds the PR-level change intelligence layer that reduces the incidents Dynatrace needs to triage.
Firetiger was built to close the feedback loop between shipping code and knowing it worked, with AI agents that verify, triage, and hand off fixes end to end.
Dynatrace watches what your infrastructure does after a deployment lands. Firetiger understands what each individual pull request was supposed to change—then verifies it worked across staging, canary, and production. This intent-aware layer catches regressions that broad observability tools can detect only after customers are affected.
Change Monitors are now generally available for all Firetiger customers. Open a PR and Firetiger has you covered within minutes, adding the upstream change-intelligence layer that Dynatrace's topology-based monitoring doesn't provide.
When Firetiger detects an issue, it triages automatically, attaches affected customers, services, and a root cause hypothesis, then delivers the full context to Cursor or Claude Code via MCP with one click. Change Monitors verify the fix without any manual follow-up.
Dynatrace's Davis AI surfaces root cause and its Intelligence platform can trigger automated workflows. Firetiger's handoff is purpose-built for the AI coding agent era—the fix goes directly to the developer's IDE with structured context, not into a workflow automation engine.
Dynatrace's modular pricing adds up fast: $58/month per host for Full-Stack Monitoring, $0.20/GiB for log ingest and traces, $2.25 per 1,000 RUM sessions, $13/month per host for security. Costs scale with infrastructure size and telemetry volume. Firetiger charges per agent operation with storage included.
Firetiger's Bootstrap plan is free forever with no per-host or per-GB caps. Growth starts at $599/month covering 25,000 agent operations. Enterprise adds BYOC on AWS or GCP with SSO and dedicated support.
“Our early access customers have seen a 32% decrease in change-related issues within two weeks of installing Firetiger.”
“When a Firetiger notification comes in, we're much more likely to pay attention to it because it's been curated.”
“More code written by people who don't really understand it is going to land. Reliability is becoming a bigger challenge, and Firetiger helps us manage that risk.”
“Using Firetiger Change Monitoring is standard practice across the company on the majority of PRs.”
Firetiger charges per agent operation with storage included. Dynatrace uses a modular subscription model billed per host, per GiB ingested, per session, and per security host—costs that compound quickly as infrastructure grows.
Pay for agent operations. Storage included.
Send all the data, pay for agents. No per-host, per-GB, per-session, or per-container line items.
Modular per-host, per-GiB, and per-session enterprise subscription.
Security adds $13/month per host for vulnerability analytics and another $13/month per host for runtime application protection. Costs scale directly with infrastructure size and data volume.
For growing engineering teams that want to add change-level verification without taking on enterprise observability pricing, Firetiger's operations-based model provides a predictable, low-friction entry point. Teams already running Dynatrace can add Firetiger upstream to reduce the number of incidents Davis AI has to triage, shrinking both MTTR and platform costs at the same time.
Firetiger watches every PR, triages every issue, and hands off fixes to your coding agents with transparent pricing tied to outcomes, not infrastructure scale.
No credit card required. Bootstrap plan is free forever.
