AI observability is API observability

In the AI era, your APIs are under more pressure than ever. Postman Insights gives you real-time visibility into your API traffic. No code, no custom dashboards, just answers.

Debug faster with real user traffic

Pinpoint issues instantly by surfacing the exact API calls that triggered errors from production and staging. With Repro Mode, you can open any failing request in Postman's Request Builder to inspect, replay, and troubleshoot errors using real user data.

Get ahead of customer issues

Automatically track errors, flaky endpoints, and performance patterns across your APIs, even in places your monitoring tools don't cover.

Fast, easy setup

No changes to your codebase. Install at the container level and go: Postman Insights starts continuously monitoring traffic right away.


How Insights works

Watches production traffic

The lightweight Postman Insights Agent passively captures API calls using Berkeley Packet Filter (BPF).

Identifies meaningful endpoints

Postman Insights uses AI to automatically discover APIs, making it possible to quickly identify hotspots. No manual setup required.

Alert on production issues

Insights makes it easy to automatically, comprehensively alert on production issues. For instance, you can catch high error rates across all APIs simply by setting a threshold.

We had Datadog and Honeycomb set up, but it was still challenging to figure out what was going on in our system. Postman Insights has a lot of promise in getting us more signal from the noise.

Performance is critical to the success of our products for the mobile vendor community. Postman Insights gives our API team detailed metrics on each of our endpoints from within the same tools they use for development. We appreciated how quick and easy it was to get started.

Seeing Postman Insights in action at Postcon we were very excited to try it out on our APIs. After a seamless installation process on our Kubernetes cluster, we were able to understand latency and errors in our APIs in a matter of minutes. We are excited about what this tool unlocks for us when it comes to monitoring and understanding our API usage.
