Production Readiness
Readiness isn't a box you check
It’s a standard you maintain that prepares you for the moments that matter most. Make production readiness a continuous practice, so your team can enter every peak event, audit, and critical release with confidence, not chaos.
“Deployed” and “production ready” aren't the same thing
A service can be live and still missing an owner, monitoring, or a runbook. You usually find out which during an incident. At scale, with agents shipping faster than anyone can check, readiness becomes a scramble before every peak event.
Today
Manual checklist reviews, stale spreadsheets, and engineers pulled off feature work to ensure readiness.
With Cortex
Cortex scores every entity (services, models, agents, etc) against your standards, and surfaces gaps automatically, so teams fix issues before they become incidents.

Make "always ready" the default
Cortex puts production readiness on autopilot. Every service is continuously evaluated against your standards, and gaps surface in real time, so you're ready well before the event.
Know exactly where you stand, right now
Get a live view of production readiness across every service. Cortex automatically tracks ownership, monitoring coverage, on-call assignment, vulnerability status, and any standard you define so you're never flying blind.
Set your standards once,
enforce them continuously
Define what "production ready" uniquely means for your organization. Every service is automatically scored against those standards, and teams see exactly what needs to be fixed without anyone having to ask.
Turn gaps into tracked work
Visibility without action is just noise. Cortex turns Scorecard gaps into tracked initiatives, routes work to the right teams, and gives leaders a real-time view of progress so readiness actually improves
How H&R Block reduced MTTR by 75%
H&R Block ran a company-wide readiness initiative using Cortex Scorecards to ensure every service had clear ownership, proper monitoring, and resolved vulnerabilities. Engineering Intelligence showed exactly where gaps existed. They went into peak tax season with zero major outages and saw MTTR drop by 75%.
