AI Synthetic Monitoring with Smart Journey Generation
At Acumen Logs, we’ve always believed synthetic monitoring should be powerful, but never painful.
Today, we’re excited to introduce AI Journey Generation, a major evolution in how you create and manage synthetic tests.
Instead of manually building browser steps, finding query selectors, and stitching together journeys… you simply write a prompt.
That’s it.
What Is AI Journey Generation?
AI Journey Generation allows you to create a complete synthetic monitoring test using natural language.
For example:
“Navigate to the contact page, fill in the contact form, and submit it.”
With a single prompt, our AI:
- Navigates through your website
- Identifies relevant elements
- Clicks buttons and links
- Fills in forms
- Submits data
- Builds the entire journey step-by-step
- Captures screenshots along the way
- Outputs a ready-to-save synthetic test
No manual step configuration required.
A Real Example
In our demo, we ran a journey against acummens.com with this simple instruction:
Navigate to the contact page, fill in the contact form, and submit it.
Here’s what happened behind the scenes:
- The AI identified and clicked the Contact link.
- It located the name field and filled it in.
- It found the email field and entered a value.
- It added a custom message:
“I’d like to schedule a demo to learn more about your platform.” - It submitted the form.
- It generated the complete structured journey - ready to save and reuse.
Every action was captured. Every step was logged. The journey was built in real time.
What used to take 10–20 minutes now takes seconds.
Why This Changes Synthetic Monitoring
Traditional synthetic monitoring platforms like Datadog or New Relic often require:
- Manually configuring steps
- Understanding DOM structures
- Finding query selectors
- Debugging failed element matches
- Editing scripts when layouts change
For many teams, this creates friction:
- Non-technical users feel intimidated by HTML.
- Product teams don’t want to inspect DOM trees.
- Developers don’t have time to build and maintain scripts.
- Agencies need fast setup across multiple client sites.
AI removes that friction.
The Bigger Vision for AI Synthetic Monitoring
AI Journey Generation is just the beginning.
Synthetic monitoring shouldn’t require:
- Automation expertise
- Browser scripting knowledge
- Deep HTML understanding
At Acumen Logs, we’re building a future where:
- Monitoring is conversational.
- Test creation is instant.
- Maintenance is minimal.
- Setup time is near zero.
