About this tool
Incident Timeline Analyzer
The Incident Timeline Analyzer computes MTTD, MTTM, MTTR, and time-to-root-cause from incident event timestamps with SRE benchmark comparisons.
• Calculate MTTD and MTTM for a post-incident review
• Benchmark incident response metrics against DORA and SRE industry targets
• Identify whether detection or response time is the larger MTTR contributor
• Generate incident timeline metrics for a quarterly reliability review

FAQ
What does this tool tell you?
The Incident Timeline Analyzer computes MTTD, MTTM, MTTR, and time-to-root-cause from incident event timestamps with SRE benchmark comparisons.
What affects the result most?
Detection time: alert_fired - incident_start — how long before anyone knew. TTR (Time to Response): acknowledged - detected — how long to assign and start response. TTMI (Time to Mitigate): mitigation_applied - incident_start — how long to stop user impact.
How should I use the result?
The calculation is deterministic — the same inputs always produce the same output — so the most useful workflow is to vary one input at a time and see which factor moves the result most. That tells you where to focus your attention before committing to a decision.
