Network Data for AI Agents

Kubeshark indexes the network layer — so AI agents can search it, reason over it, and act on it.

  • Cluster-wide indexing — search any packet quickly
  • Structured, token-efficient results for AI reasoning
  • Query traffic in real-time or retrospectively

TLS Decryption

Encrypted traffic is the biggest blind spot — hiding sensitive data across internal and external connections

  • MySQL, Postgres, Bifrost, Envoy, Traefik — decrypted
  • No keys to exchange. No sidecars. No proxies
  • Monitor cluster-external traffic

Cluster-wide PCAPs

Take immutable traffic snapshots, filter by what matters, and store for long-term retention — no extra tools required

  • Filter by time, nodes, IPs, and workloads
  • Cloud storage for long-term retention
  • Accessible via dashboard and AI agents

network is a blind spot

We were scaling a SaaS solution built with microservices deployed on Kubernetes, but turning on CloudWatch for EKS was simply too costly on AWS. Kubeshark helped us achieve proper scaling and made troubleshooting far easier without the need for an EC2 instance.
