Optimize your IT resources with AI and Better Stack

Swiftask turns your Better Stack alerts into automated corrective actions. Identify inefficiencies and adjust your resources in real-time.

Result:

Reduce infrastructure costs and improve service availability through AI-driven proactive management.

Manual alert management is expensive

IT teams are overwhelmed by the volume of alerts from Better Stack. Without automation, over-provisioning becomes the norm out of fear of downtime, and unused resources waste your cloud budget.

Main negative impacts:

  • Excessive cloud costs: To avoid incidents, resources are often kept at levels that are too high, unnecessarily inflating your cloud bills.
  • High intervention time: Time spent manually analyzing each Better Stack alert slows down problem resolution and resource reallocation.
  • Mismatch between demand and capacity: Manual resource adjustment is too slow compared to real load spikes, creating bottlenecks or waste.

Swiftask continuously analyzes your Better Stack alerts and triggers automatic resource adjustment actions, ensuring efficiency and savings.

BEFORE / AFTER

What changes with Swiftask

Without Swiftask

A Better Stack alert signals underutilized servers. The IT team must sort the alert, verify data, log into the cloud, and manually adjust instances. Meanwhile, unused resources continue to generate costs.

With Swiftask + Better Stack

As soon as a Better Stack alert indicates a resource anomaly, the Swiftask AI agent evaluates the situation and immediately executes the appropriate optimization script (e.g., resizing, stopping services). Your resources are always aligned with your actual needs.

4 steps to automate your optimization

STEP 1 : Define your optimization rules

Configure thresholds and actions in Swiftask based on Better Stack alerts.

STEP 2 : Connect your Better Stack instance

Integrate Better Stack via webhook to allow Swiftask to receive alerts in real-time.

STEP 3 : Configure the corrective action

Associate alerts with specific actions on your infrastructure (cloud API, orchestration).

STEP 4 : Activate autopilot

The agent monitors, analyzes, and optimizes your resources without human intervention, 24/7.

Capabilities of your optimization agent

The AI analyzes the frequency of Better Stack alerts, consumption trends, and business context to make informed decisions.

  • Target connector: The agent performs the right actions in better stack based on event context.
  • Automated actions: Automatic scaling adjustment, stopping unused instances, alerting teams in case of critical thresholds, generating monthly optimization reports.
  • Native governance: All actions are logged in Swiftask for complete transparency regarding resource management.

Each action is contextualized and executed automatically at the right time.

Each Swiftask agent uses a dedicated identity (e.g. agent-better-stack@swiftask.ai ). You keep full visibility on every action and every sent message.

Key takeaway: The agent automates repetitive decisions and leaves high-value actions to your teams.
