AppSignal at ElixirConf 2026

Today marks the start of ElixirConf 2026 in Chicago. We here at AppSignal couldn’t be more excited to see the sessions and see what’s new. Several of our team members are attending in person and virtually.

If you’re at the event and you see our CEO, Brandon, say hi! We’d love to chat and get to know you!

As attendees think about how they’ll build the next evolution of their Elixir apps, I wanted to share a few things we’ve done to make it easy to ensure your applications are fully monitored and can launch to production with peace of mind.

Our Elixir integration

For those who are unaware of our Elixir capabilities, we have a wonderful native integration that unlocks access to monitoring:

• Erlang
• Phoenix
• Ecto
• And so much more Elixir integrations!

Getting started, with or without an agent

Getting started is easier than ever; you can add your Elixir application in a few steps or hand these instructions to your agent to instrument it for you. Point your agent to installation guide for coding agents and use the agent-friendly instructions provided.

These instructions work for LLMs of your choice, including those provided by Claude, Google, OpenAI, or even self-hosted Qwen models.

Bring your monitoring data to your AI

After instrumenting your application, you can use the AppSignal context store for your coding agents and while triaging your errors with your AI of choice.

That context store is the foundation the rest of AppSignal Intelligence is grounded in. It’s what lets us build a dashboard for you the moment we spot an integration like Ecto, what Time Detective reads to reconstruct your app at any moment in the past, and what the MCP endpoint and CLI hand to your agent. One set of grounded context, whichever way you reach for it.

You can connect the AppSignal context store to your preferred LLM via our MCP-hosted endpoint or our CLI.

With one line of configuration:

claude mcp add --transport http appsignal https://appsignal.com/api/mcp

Claude can now use the monitored context about the errors, metrics, traces, logs, and more from your Elixir application. Investigating incidents when your application goes offline in the middle of the night can start with a conversation.

Come say hi

We hope you enjoy ElixirConf, and we would be thrilled to see you there or connect virtually!
