Graph-Based Runtime Context Across Prod and Pre-Prod

Unlike time series based solutions Kerno maps your runtime environments linking systems, code, and teams to understand how everything fits together and deliver context-rich insights to developers and AI agents.

Kerno IDE

@Kerno/*

Developers can pull live performance metrics, hotspots, and dependencies for their APIs, functions, DB queries, and endpoints so they can optimize, refactor, and ship new code with real-world context.

Works with popular IDEs
@Kerno/impact

Help developers understand the impact of every change to make better decisions and not break things.

@Kerno/context

Give developers the production context they need for their code without leaving the IDE

@Kerno/validate

Help Developers validate changes against what's running in production so they can merge with confidence

Kerno Insights

Catch and Fix Issues Early

From exceptions and slow queries to API drift and emerging performance bottlenecks, Kerno gives developers timely insights inside their IDE so they can act fast and fix small issues before they escalate.
