The Discovery

One of our interns was stuck on a production issue. Legacy Java app, no docs, nobody around who remembered how it was deployed. He got frustrated and pointed an LLM agent at the server.

It found the root cause in twenty minutes. It also restarted two services and took the app down for an hour. The diagnosis was right. The damage was also real.

That incident got us thinking. What if we had tooling around this? Read-only pipelines, parallel system reads, every destructive command blocked before execution. Keep the investigation. Remove the risk.

What We Built

It’s been great at diagnosing issues. But what surprised us was everything else. The structured reports, the log collection, the way it compiles evidence and cites what it finds.

That part used to take hours. Pulling logs, cross-referencing timestamps, writing it all up so someone else could understand what happened. Fawdy does that in minutes and the output is clean enough to hand to a VP or drop straight into a postmortem.

We built Fawdy for ourselves. It’s the tool we kept wishing existed every time we had to investigate a server and then explain what happened to everyone else.

20 min

Fawdy connects, investigates, and delivers a structured report with root cause, contributing factors, and recommended fixes. Ready to share, not raw terminal output.

All of it

Log entries, config values, process states, system metrics. It all gets pulled together and cited in one place so nobody has to go back and re-gather it.

Zero

If you can SSH into it, Fawdy can investigate it. No agents to install, no daemons to manage, no new ports to open. It works with your existing access controls.

Built by people who’ve lived the on-call life

We’ve spent years in managed services and system administration, and we’ve built companies from scratch. Fawdy comes from that experience.

Fawdy is the tool we needed and didn’t have.

Everything you need to know

Common questions about how Fawdy works.

Standard SSH. You provide credentials or an SSH key, and Fawdy connects the same way you would. No agents, no daemons, no special packages to install. It works with jump hosts and bastion servers too.

No. Fawdy runs in read-only mode. Every command is vetted before execution, and anything that could write, modify, or restart a service is blocked.

Memory leaks, disk pressure, crashed services, misconfigured networking, permission issues, log anomalies, stale connections. Anything you would investigate manually in an SSH session. If it shows up in logs, processes, or config files, Fawdy can find it.

No. Your monitoring tells you something is wrong. Fawdy tells you why. It connects to the server, reads the evidence, and produces a structured root cause analysis.

Any Linux distribution with SSH access and a standard shell. Ubuntu, Debian, CentOS, RHEL, Amazon Linux, Alpine. If it has bash and the usual system utilities, Fawdy can investigate it.

Stop guessing. Start knowing.
