Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you should know before getting started with KI-Ops – clear, direct, and without marketing speak.
General
Basic questions about KI-Ops – what it is, how it works, and who it is for.
KI-Ops is an AI-powered Kubernetes troubleshooting tool that analyzes clusters, logs, and metrics using LLMs and delivers actionable recommendations. The free tier includes full diagnostics; Pro adds auto-fix pull requests.
Pricing & Plans
Everything about costs, billing models, and available plans for teams of any size.
You bring your own Claude API key (BYOK). Typical usage costs $5-15/month depending on cluster size and analysis frequency. KI-Ops itself is free (Community) or 250€/year (Pro).
Absolutely. The free Community tier includes full cluster analysis, log/metric analysis, DNS checks, LLM recommendations, knowledge base, and health dashboard. Pro adds auto-fix PRs, Git integration, and validation.
Enterprise includes everything in Pro plus SSO (SAML/OIDC), audit logs, multi-cluster support, priority SLA, custom integrations, on-premise deployment, and a dedicated account manager. Contact us for pricing.
Technical & Architecture
Details on the technical implementation, system architecture, and the technologies used.
Yes. KI-Ops works with any Kubernetes cluster accessible via kubeconfig — EKS, GKE, AKS, on-premise, k3s, kind, and more. Optional Grafana/Loki integration for enhanced diagnostics.
Under 5 minutes. Install via Helm chart, add your Claude API key, point to your kubeconfig. First analysis runs immediately.
You enter your own Claude API key during setup. All LLM requests go directly from your infrastructure to Anthropic. KI-Ops never sees or stores your API key beyond your local config.
Security & Compliance
Information on data privacy, encryption, certifications, and compliance standards.
Yes. KI-Ops is fully self-hosted. Your data never leaves your infrastructure. We use BYOK (Bring Your Own Key) so you control the LLM connection. No telemetry is sent to us.
Integrations & API
How to integrate KI-Ops into your existing infrastructure – via API, webhook, or direct connection.
KI-Ops integrates with Grafana, Loki, and Prometheus to provide enhanced diagnostics by correlating structured logs, metrics, and dashboard data for faster root cause analysis.
KI-Ops integrates with GitOps workflows to validate manifests before deployment, detect cluster drift, and automatically create fix PRs for misconfigurations.
