What is Sawmills?

Sawmills is an AI-driven (agentic) telemetry pipeline that sits upstream of your observability backend and processes logs, metrics and traces in real time before they are ingested. It filters, transforms and improves the quality of telemetry pre-ingestion to cut observability spend, and is built on the OpenTelemetry Collector so it works alongside tools like Datadog and Splunk rather than replacing them.

Best for: Teams on Datadog, Splunk or similar that want to cut observability cost by filtering and optimising telemetry before ingestion
