AI-first observability platform provider LogicMonitor told announced it has finalized the acquisition of Catchpoint, creators of a digital experience and internet performance monitoring platform, to move observability from reactive to preventative.

For years, infrastructure monitoring involved teams looking at screens and acting on alerts that pop up. This acquisition, according to LogicMonitor, is about staying ahead of problems instead of waiting for them. The new LogicMonitor platform combines that company’s expertise in AI and infrastructure with Catchpoint’s “internet-level intelligence” to create a platform that provides predictive visibility. The deal is valued at more than $250 million.

“This is a defining moment for LogicMonitor and for enterprise technology,” said Christina Kosmowski, CEO of LogicMonitor, in the announcement. “Until now, IT teams have been juggling point tools that promise insight but deliver noise. That ends today. Together with Catchpoint we are giving customers the power to predict issues, prevent downtime, and finally make their systems as smart as the people who run them.”

“Catchpoint was founded to make the Internet better for everyone,” said Mehdi Daoudi, CEO and co-founder of Catchpoint. “We have helped teams detect issues faster, reduce MTTR, and protect billions of sessions. Now, as part of LogicMonitor, we can do it on a global scale and redefine what performance means in the AI era.”

The integration of the two technologies will enable Catchpoint’s performance to be fed into LogicMonitor’s Edwin AI intelligence engine, delivering predictions on incidents and, ultimately, automate repairs.

Once integrated, Catchpoint’s global performance data including synthetic, network, and real-user monitoring will feed directly into Edwin AI, LogicMonitor’s intelligent engine that does more than raise alarms. It explains them. Together, the platform will predict incidents, ultimately automate fixes, and give enterprises the kind of full-stack clarity that makes finger-pointing obsolete.

According to LogicMonitor, “Reactive IT had its moment. LogicMonitor just made it obsolete.”
