StackGen has been named a Cool Vendor for AI in IT Operations – we think that the recognition of Stackgen’s Autonomous Infrastructure Platform emphasizes the AI-driven transformation of infrastructure automation and developer experience.
SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. 19, 2025 — StackGen announced today that it has been named a Cool Vendor in the 2025 Gartner Cool Vendor for AI in IT Operations.1 StackGen’s Autonomous Infrastructure Platform (AIP) allows platform engineering teams to shift from manual Infrastructure as Code (IaC) processes to intent-driven, goal-oriented automation via AI agents that operate at selectable autonomy levels.
We believe this recognition shows the increasing need for AI-powered infrastructure automation as organizations encounter growing complexity, persistent skills shortages, and pressure to speed up delivery while maintaining compliance and security standards. According to Gartner’s research, 54% of IT infrastructure and operations (I&O) leaders mention optimizing costs as a top factor driving AI adoption, while 47% prioritize enhancing efficiency and performance (including improving processes).
“We’re proud to be recognized by Gartner for our innovation in autonomous infrastructure,” said Sachin Aggarwal, Founder and CEO of StackGen. “As AI coding tools boost development velocity, infrastructure has become the crucial bottleneck preventing organizations from realizing their AI investments. StackGen’s Autonomous Infrastructure Platform ensures that infrastructure can move at the speed of code while maintaining the governance, compliance, and security safeguards enterprises need.”
StackGen’s platform creates compliant Terraform, OpenTofu, and Helm configurations with built-in security policies, enabling users to provision infrastructure through natural language intent rather than manual code. The platform’s AI agents operate across selectable autonomy levels—from human-in-the-loop virtual assistant capabilities to fully autonomous autopilot mode—coordinated by an AI control plane that orchestrates workflows from developer intent to infrastructure deployment.
The platform serves platform engineering teams that define cloud infrastructure blueprints and governance patterns, DevOps engineers streamlining application-to-infrastructure workflows, and security and compliance officers enforcing continuous policy compliance across standards including FedRAMP, HIPAA, and SOC 2. StackGen’s multicloud, agent-driven automation helps organizations accelerate deployment while maintaining enterprise-grade security and compliance requirements.
StackGen’s customer base includes enterprise organizations across regulated industries such as healthcare, government, and financial services, where automated compliance and security policy enforcement are critical requirements. The platform integrates with existing development workflows and infrastructure ecosystems, enabling teams to adopt AI-driven infrastructure automation without disrupting critical operations.
