Grafana Assistant, a context-aware LLM agent built into Grafana Cloud

a year ago

Grafana Assistant is a new LLM-powered agent in Grafana Cloud, previewed at GrafanaCON 2025.
It helps users learn and solve problems in Grafana more easily, with features like context-aware chat, natural language queries, and dashboard creation.
The assistant is designed for both novices and experts, offering support in learning, research, investigations, and navigating Grafana.
Users can sign up for a private preview to help shape the development of Grafana Assistant.
The agent integrates directly into Grafana's UI, providing context-specific assistance and multi-step investigations.
It can create and edit dashboards using natural language, and make bulk changes or semantic searches.
The project started as a hackathon prototype and is now being developed into a full solution.
Grafana's open-source roots have made it well-suited for LLM integration, with a wealth of existing content and knowledge.
The team is experimenting with different architectures, including single-agent and multi-agent approaches.
Accuracy and error correction are key focuses, with strategies in place to improve the agent's performance over time.
