Question 1

What monitoring tools does Cova support?

Accepted Answer

Cova connects to 7 monitoring tools: PagerDuty, Datadog, Grafana, Sentry, New Relic, Sumo Logic, and Splunk. It also integrates with GitHub and GitLab for source code analysis and PR-level monitoring checks.

Question 2

How does Cova detect monitoring blind spots?

Accepted Answer

Cova connects to your monitoring tools via API, pulls your current configuration, and uses AI to analyze coverage across 8 dimensions including endpoint monitoring, database monitoring, error tracking, and escalation routing. It generates a health score and flags specific gaps with actionable recommendations.

Question 3

Can Cova generate and deploy monitor configurations?

Accepted Answer

Yes. When Cova finds a coverage gap, it can generate the exact monitor configuration needed to fill it and deploy it directly to your monitoring tool in one click. Currently supports Datadog with more tools coming soon.

Question 4

Does Cova work with GitHub and GitLab?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Cova's PR Guard runs automatically on every pull request, scanning code changes for new endpoints, databases, and services that need monitoring. It also supports full repository scanning to map your architecture and generate monitoring recommendations.

Question 5

How is Cova different from Datadog or PagerDuty?

Accepted Answer

Cova is not a replacement for your monitoring tools - it sits on top of them. While Datadog and PagerDuty collect metrics and manage alerts, Cova audits your entire monitoring setup across all tools to find coverage gaps, misconfigurations, and blind spots that no single tool can see on its own.

Question 6

Can I switch plans at any time?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Upgrades take effect immediately with prorated billing. Downgrades take effect at the end of your current billing period. You keep access to all features until then.

What happens when I hit my usage limits?

Accepted Answer

You will see a warning at 80% and a hard limit at 100%. Scans and AI queries are blocked until the next cycle, or you can upgrade for immediate access. Connected integrations and existing data remain accessible.
