Agentic engineering platform with natural language Slack and Teams commands, Terraform and CI/CD automation and role based access control.

Kubiya is an AI-native agentic engineering platform for DevOps and platform teams that turns natural language into production workflows. An orchestrator routes tasks across modular domain agents for Kubernetes, Terraform, GitHub, CI/CD and more, executing multi-step operations like provisioning environments, applying Terraform plans and running remediation from Slack, Teams, CLI, a Composer GUI or an API.

It is built LLM-agnostic, retains scoped memory across users, channels and projects, and enforces enterprise governance with RBAC and ABAC, OPA policy, just-in-time access, SSO, full audit logging and SOC 2 readiness, restricting execution to pre-approved tools with human-in-the-loop controls and context-aware rollback. Kubiya offers managed SaaS and secure local deployment and is extensible via MCP, custom APIs and Terraform-defined modules.
