StackAI
StackAI is an enterprise AI automation platform built to help organizations create end-to-end internal tools and processes with AI agents. Unlike point solutions or one-off chatbots, StackAI provides a single platform where enterprises can design, deploy, and govern AI workflows in a secure, compliant, and fully controlled environment.
Using its visual workflow builder, teams can map entire processes — from data intake and enrichment to decision-making, reporting, and audit trails. Enterprise knowledge bases such as SharePoint, Confluence, Notion, Google Drive, and internal databases can be connected directly, with features for version control, citations, and permissioning to keep information reliable and protected.
AI agents can be deployed in multiple ways: as a chat assistant embedded in daily workflows, an advanced form for structured document-heavy tasks, or an API endpoint connected into existing tools. StackAI integrates natively with Slack, Teams, Salesforce, HubSpot, ServiceNow, Airtable, and more.
Security and compliance are embedded at every layer. The platform supports SSO (Okta, Azure AD, Google), role-based access control, audit logs, data residency, and PII masking. Enterprises can monitor usage, apply cost controls, and test workflows with guardrails and evaluations before production.
StackAI also offers flexible model routing, enabling teams to choose between OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, or local LLMs, with advanced settings to fine-tune parameters and ensure consistent, accurate outputs.
A growing template library speeds deployment with pre-built solutions for Contract Analysis, Support Desk Automation, RFP Response, Investment Memo Generation, and InfoSec Questionnaires.
By replacing fragmented processes with secure, AI-driven workflows, StackAI helps enterprises cut manual work, accelerate decision-making, and empower non-technical teams to build automation that scales across the organization.
