Each tier builds on the previous one. You can reach Protected in about 2 minutes with auto-setup, and Verified in under 10 minutes.

​
Not Monitored to Monitored (score 10+)

Time: Under 1 minute
1

Run asset discovery

Go to your asset page and click Discover Schema. This scans your database for all schemas, tables, and columns.
2

Enable schema drift monitoring

On the asset page, click Enable Schema Monitoring. This detects column additions, removals, and type changes automatically.
3

Set up an alert destination

Go to Alerts > Destinations and connect Slack, email, or a webhook so you get notified about changes.
What you gain: You’ll know when upstream sources change their schema before it breaks your pipelines.

​
Monitored to Protected (score 30+)

Time: About 2 minutes
1

Add row count metrics to key tables

Go to Data Quality > Metrics and create row count metrics on your most important tables. AnomalyArmor uses ML to detect when counts deviate from normal patterns.
2

Create alert rules

Go to Alerts > Rules and create rules that route anomaly alerts to your team’s Slack channel or email.
Or use the agent: Tell the AnomalyArmor agent “set up Protected-level monitoring for my database” and it will handle the setup for you. What you gain: You’ll catch data loss, duplicate loads, and empty pipelines. Your team gets notified automatically.

​
Protected to Verified (score 50+)

Time: About 5 minutes
1

Add freshness monitoring

Go to Data Quality > Freshness and set up schedules for tables that update regularly. Use auto-learn mode to let AnomalyArmor determine normal update patterns.
2

Add validity rules on critical columns

Go to Data Quality > Metrics and create validity rules. Start with null checks on required columns, then add format validation (email, phone) and range bounds (price > 0).
3

Generate AI knowledge base

Go to Intelligence and click Generate Intelligence. This creates an AI-powered knowledge base about your data asset.
What you gain: You validate data quality, not just availability. You catch bad data before it reaches dashboards.

​
Verified to Intelligent (score 70+)

Time: About 5 minutes
1

Fill remaining coverage gaps

Check your coverage breakdown on the asset page. Bring each feature above 70% coverage. Focus on features with the largest gaps first.
2

Verify alert routing

Ensure all alert rules have at least one destination linked. Unrouted rules mean anomalies go unnoticed.
3

Enable daily briefings

Daily briefings are automatically generated once you have sufficient monitoring. Check your homepage for the briefing card.
What you gain: Full observability with AI-powered anomaly detection. Proactive alerts and daily briefings keep you ahead of data issues.

​
Using the Agent for Setup

The AnomalyArmor agent can handle tier upgrades conversationally:

​
Tips

  • Start with the highest-impact feature. The coverage breakdown shows which feature contributes the most points. Focus there first.
  • Use recommendations. The asset page shows specific recommendations for improving your score, with one-click setup buttons.
  • Batch setup is fastest. Use the “Apply All Recommendations” button or ask the agent to handle everything at once.

​
Common Questions

​
How long does it take to reach Verified on a production asset?

Under 10 minutes if you use the one-click setup: about 2 minutes for Protected (schema drift + row counts + alert routing), then 5 more for freshness and validity rules. Asking the agent to handle it is usually faster than clicking through yourself.

​
Can I upgrade tiers without configuring each monitor manually?

Yes. Tell the AnomalyArmor agent “set up Protected-level monitoring for my database” and it will create the row-count metrics, freshness schedules, and alert rules for you. You can also use the Apply All Recommendations button on the asset page.

​
Which feature should I add first to raise my score fastest?

Check the coverage breakdown on the asset page. The feature with the largest gap between current coverage and 100% is usually also the one with the most unclaimed points. Start there.

​
Do I need Enterprise to reach Intelligent tier?

No. Intelligent tier is available on every plan. It requires all coverage features above 70% and alert routing verified. The limiter is plan capacity (monitor count), not tier eligibility.
