# Anomaly alerts are now generally available

By Steven Van · 2026-04-13

Teams on Observability Plus get real-time usage and error alerts by email, Slack, or webhook, with optional AI investigation, at no extra cost.

Anomaly alerts for [Vercel](<https://creatorstoolbox.com/tools/vercel>) are now [generally available](<https://vercel.com/docs/alerts>) for teams on Observability Plus, at no extra cost. Alerts flag unusual patterns in a project's traffic or errors, such as a spike in 5xx responses on a specific route or an unexpected jump in edge requests or function duration.

- Usage anomalies cover metrics such as function invocations, function duration, function CPU duration, and edge requests.

- Error anomalies cover abnormal error patterns, such as sudden spikes in 5xx responses on a specific route.

- Once an anomaly is detected, Vercel Agent can automatically investigate it, identify a likely root cause, analyze the impact, and suggest next steps for remediation.

- Alerts can be viewed in the dashboard or sent by email, Slack, or webhook, and alert rules let teams customize what they're notified about.
