Summary

FireHydrant has introduced several updates to enhance user experience and streamline incident management. Users can now Auto-Watch incidents for real-time notifications and define Milestone-Based Required Fields by Incident Type to ensure consistent data capture. The AI Scribe feature allows easy integration with Slack for incident discussions and automatically updates incident timelines with summaries. AI Summaries keep incident updates fresh by refreshing automatically with milestone changes, while automated audience-specific communications can be triggered based on AI Summary conditions in Runbooks. Post-incident retrospectives have been improved for better usability, allowing team-customized templates and export options. Additionally, Custom Roles and Permissions give teams control over incident management tasks while maintaining compliance and security standards.
