TechCrunch: Asana acquires no-code agent builder StackAI for $75M
On May 28, 2026, Asana announced the acquisition of StackAI, a no-code agent-building platform, for $75 million. StackAI was founded by Tony Rosinol and Bernard Aceituno, both of whom are joining Asana as part of the deal. The company had raised approximately $20 million in total funding, including a $16 million Series A, and was part of Y Combinator’s Winter 2023 cohort.
What StackAI does
StackAI lets teams design AI agents that operate within existing business systems — pulling data from platforms like Salesforce, Slack, and Google Workspace and executing actions without requiring engineering work. The no-code interface was designed specifically for teams that want automation without writing custom integrations.
What Asana plans to do with it
Asana CEO Dan Rogers described the acquisition as moving the company “into the next phase of human-agent work.” The stated goal is to let customers automate complex business processes end-to-end inside the Asana platform — going beyond task tracking and project templates into multi-step, AI-driven workflows.
Why it matters for product managers
Asana is used by product teams to manage roadmaps, track work, and coordinate across functions. Adding StackAI’s agent-building capabilities means that PMs may soon be able to create automated workflows that span multiple external systems without engineering involvement. At the same time, this acquisition is part of a broader consolidation in the work management market: Asana, Notion, and Monday.com are all moving toward becoming AI-orchestration platforms rather than task trackers. Teams evaluating their tooling should watch how these capabilities develop over the next few product cycles.
