Score: 6.0/10 (Innovation: 6, Technical: 5, Documentation: 4, Utility: 7)

Obics is a tool that analyzes telemetry data (logs, metrics, traces) to identify unnecessary or redundant telemetry, maps it back to source code, and opens pull requests to remove or optimize it. It addresses the growing problem of telemetry technical debt, which increases observability costs and hinders debugging, by automating cleanup with awareness of dependencies like dashboards and alerts.

Target audience: devops, backend developers, platform engineers
