Asana Acquires StackAI To Expand Cross-System AI Workflow Automation

By Amit Chowdhry ● Yesterday at 11:44 PM

Asana announced that it has completed the acquisition of StackAI, a no-code AI workflow platform that enables organizations to design, test, deploy, and govern custom AI agents and intelligent automation for business-critical workflows.

Based in San Francisco, StackAI helps enterprises connect workflows, data, and actions across systems such as ERP, CRM, and IT service management platforms. The technology is used to automate operational processes including customer support, IT service requests, compliance workflows, and broader cross-functional business operations. The company has built a customer base across highly regulated industries including financial services, healthcare, and professional services.

The acquisition strengthens Asana’s vision of becoming the operating system for human-agent teams. StackAI’s platform enables end-to-end execution across enterprise tools through multi-agent workflows that can interact with systems such as Salesforce, AWS, DocuSign, Oracle, and document management platforms through bi-directional synchronization.

By combining StackAI’s orchestration capabilities with Asana’s Enterprise Work Graph and AI Teammates platform, organizations will be able to run workflows that span multiple systems while maintaining context, governance, ownership, and historical knowledge within Asana. The integration is designed to help enterprises move beyond individual AI productivity tools and deploy coordinated workflows involving both humans and AI agents.

Asana said the acquisition accelerates its AI roadmap as customers increasingly use AI Teammates and AI Studio to automate repetitive processes such as request intake and task routing. With StackAI, customers will be able to automate more complex business processes that extend across enterprise systems and departments.

As part of the transaction, StackAI co-founders Tony Rosinol and Bernard Aceituno, both MIT Ph.D.s, will join Asana. StackAI will continue operating as its own product and brand following the acquisition.

Financial terms of the deal were not disclosed.

KEY QUOTES:

“This acquisition accelerates our roadmap and marks the next phase of human-agent work. We’re seeing real momentum with AI Teammates and AI Studio: customers are augmenting their teams with purpose-built agents that take on everyday work and use AI Studio to build automations around highly repetitive processes like request intake and task routing. StackAI now lets them go further, agentifying the most complex business processes end-to-end, across every system and tool their business runs on. This is an incredibly exciting time for Asana. We’re primed to help enterprises unlock the real productivity promise of AI.

In our own proof of concept with the StackAI team, we transformed our Search Engine Optimization spend process in minutes. StackAI agents quickly pulled live data across five marketing systems, summarized the insights, and handed work over to AI Teammates trained by their human counterparts to take action. We were blown away, and we think our customers will be too.”

“Asana is the operating system for human-agent work. Our customers can run governed, reliable workflows across teams, systems and data. Foundation models will continue to improve and orchestration tools will continue to multiply. The enduring value will belong to the system that can coordinate all of them inside the flow of real operational work, with the context, governance, memory, and execution capability that make every cycle smarter than the last. We are closing the gap from pockets of individual productivity to enterprise-wide workflow productivity, humans and agents working together at the right checkpoints, on the workflows that actually matter.”

Dan Rogers, CEO, Asana

“StackAI was built on a simple conviction: AI creates ROI for enterprises when agents can specialize and reach into the systems where business actually runs. General-purpose agents talk; specialized agents act. So we built a platform to let anyone build agents for manual and important enterprise processes. We then proved ourselves within some of the most heavily-regulated companies in the world.

Joining Asana is the moment our offering scales. We bring the cross-system workflow engine; Asana brings a company’s entire business context, memory, team workflows and governance, along with an established enterprise sales motion and thousands of customers waiting for exactly what we’ve built.”

Tony Rosinol, Co-Founder, StackAI
