Short answer

How can I track specific stat keys with my AI?

Your AI sends precise numbers or increments to StatHat keys to keep your monitoring granular. You get real-time updates by simply telling your agent which metric to change. This setup gives you a direct line from your AI's logic to your StatHat dashboard.

Where data lands.

The outcomes of your updates.

Every instruction you give your agent results in a specific data point in StatHat.

VALUE

Absolute measurements

The AI sets a key to a specific number. Use this for gauges or fixed metrics like current temperature.

COUNT

Running totals

Your agent adds to an existing total. This is perfect for tracking event counts or successful runs.

DASHBOARD

Live monitoring

Updates appear in your StatHat dashboard immediately. You can watch trends develop as your agent works.

HUMAN

Manual control

The AI only touches the keys you name. You remain in charge of creating keys and interpreting the data.

The workflow

What your AI does when a metric needs updating.

The AI translates your natural language into precise StatHat API calls.

  1. Identify the target

    Your agent parses your request to find the correct StatHat key for the job.

    post_classic_value

  2. Set a new value

    If you want to set a metric to a specific level, the AI pushes that exact number.

    post_classic_value

  3. Increment a total

    When you ask to add to a total, the AI bumps the existing value by your specified amount.

    post_classic_counter

  4. Confirm the write

    The AI verifies the update was successful so you know the data is live.
