New Relic Ground Truth is here, giving engineering teams a trusted operational intelligence layer for enterprise AI. As organizations bring AI assistants and agents into operational workflows, the challenge is no longer simply connecting AI to more data. It is giving AI access to the right operational context, with the governance and controls enterprises require. Ground Truth makes New Relic’s telemetry, entity relationships, system context, and operational knowledge accessible to AI tools and agents through MCP. Instead of requiring teams to assemble context across disconnected sources, Ground Truth helps AI understand what is happening across your environment and provides the evidence behind that understanding.
What you can do with Ground Truth
- Connect AI tools and agents to New Relic operational intelligence: Give approved AI systems access to relevant telemetry and operational context through MCP.
- Provide richer context about your environment: Help AI understand services, entities, dependencies, changes, and related telemetry rather than reasoning from isolated signals.
- Ground AI responses in observable evidence: Enable AI systems to use current New Relic data and context so teams can evaluate findings against the underlying telemetry.
- Control how operational context is accessed: Use New Relic permissions and administrative controls to govern which capabilities and connections are available across your organization.
- Extend operational intelligence beyond the New Relic UI: Bring trusted New Relic context into the AI tools and workflows where your teams already work.
Built for AI that needs more than data
AI becomes more useful in operations when it understands the environment it is reasoning about. Ground Truth brings together telemetry and operational context so AI tools and agents can work from a richer understanding of your systems rather than interpreting individual signals in isolation.
That makes Ground Truth more than an integration point. It establishes a foundation for making trusted New Relic operational intelligence available to New Relic and third-party AI experiences.
Connect through MCP
Ground Truth includes MCP server capabilities that provide a standards-based way for compatible AI tools and agents to access New Relic operational intelligence Organizations that participated in the New Relic MCP Server Public Preview can continue using those capabilities as part of Ground Truth, with administrative controls for managing access and available connections. Organizations new to Ground Truth can enable its MCP server capabilities through Feature Control Manager to start connecting compatible AI tools. This means existing Preview customers retain a familiar way to connect their AI tools, while new customers gain a straightforward path to begin using Ground Truth.
Govern access to operational intelligence
Ground Truth is designed for enterprise environments where access to operational data must remain controlled. New Relic permissions and Feature Control Manager help administrators determine which MCP capabilities and connections are available to their organizations, while maintaining control over how AI systems access New Relic context.
