Hydrolix Expands Bot Insights with Role-Based Dashboards to Master Bot Behavior Across Every Team

Open sources Claude Skills for bot investigations, reveals the “why” behind bot behavior, and cuts incident attribution time by 95%.

PORTLAND, OR, UNITED STATES, May 28, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Hydrolix, the real-time data platform company, today announced significant enhancements to Bot Insights, a visibility and intelligence solution that helps organizations understand, manage, and act on automated bot, AI, and agentic traffic hitting their websites and digital infrastructure. Building on the January 2026 launch that gave organizations unified long-term visibility into bot behavior across major CDNs, the updated Bot Insights introduces role-based diagnostic dashboards and workflows, baseline-delta intelligence, and SIEM correlation capabilities, enabling security, SEO, and edge operations teams to move from detecting bots and agents to unifying quickly on which are wanted or not, and what to do about them.

Bot Insights reduces incident attribution time by 95%, cuts bot-driven infrastructure costs by 20–30%, and for the first time gives security, operations, and SEO teams a shared source of truth for strategic bot management and ROI validation without requiring each team to build bespoke reports.

When Bot Insights launched earlier this year, it introduced a new category of visibility, giving organizations a clear picture of what percentage of their traffic was bots, how that had changed over time, and how AI-driven crawlers were impacting their digital operations. The updated Bot Insights takes a decisive step forward. Instead of describing what is happening, it diagnoses why.

“The first version of Bot Insights answered a question that had gone unanswered for most organizations: what is actually hitting my infrastructure? We could describe the bots, categorize them, and detect incidents in real time. Uniquely, we could also keep over a year's worth of data, which was a breakthrough. But knowing what is happening is only half the job,” said Simon Ouderkirk, VP of Product, Hydrolix. “Now, Bot Insights diagnoses the why, and it does it in seconds. Why is latency in the checkout funnel spiking? Why is our origin cost climbing? Why did our search cost double last month? When you understand the why, you can act.”

But everyone needs something different from Bot and Agent visibility. So, Bot Insights ships five new purpose-built dashboards designed around specific jobs - SOC, SEO, Edge/Ops, Executives and Directors, and Security. Incident responders across operations and security get their own view into source-of-truth data for rapid status checks and triaging, along with a deeper investigation flow for each. This ends the friction and delays caused by everyone using different interfaces. Executives and directors can immediately identify who owns the next action. SEO teams can confirm Googlebot, Bingbot, and authorized AI crawlers are healthy in 10 seconds. All of them use the same detailed source-of-truth telemetry spanning years and queried in seconds.

Exclusively for Akamai customers with SIEM data available, Bot Insights can now correlate traffic against downstream SIEM alerts, including login failures, checkout disruption, and incident timelines, adding a layer of context that makes root cause investigations dramatically faster. It can also be leveraged to validate that bot management and firewall policies are working.

Alongside the enhanced dashboards, Hydrolix is releasing publicly available Claude skills for Bot Insights, making AI-powered bot investigation a first-class citizen of the product experience. The public skills enable customers to interrogate their bot and agentic data through natural language, moving seamlessly from dashboard to conversational analysis within their existing Claude workflows. The skills are open-source under the Apache 2.0 license, meaning organizations can download, build on top of, and extend them for their specific environments, and contribute improvements back to the community.

Bot Insights is available on a limited basis as of today, May 28, 2026, for new and existing Hydrolix and Akamai TrafficPeak customers. For more information or to get started, visit the Hydrolix blog.
