## Overview

You can build custom AI agents to act on your observability data and third-party integrations. Agents can use any action from the [Action Catalog][7] to investigate problems, start remediation, or manage resources.

When building an agent, choose a blueprint to get started. Blueprints come with pre-filled instructions and relevant tools. They're named after their main role, like Security Analyst, Log Analyzer, Incident Responder, or DevOps Assistant.
