# Spacelift

> Spacelift is an enterprise infrastructure orchestration company that puts Terraform, OpenTofu, Terragrunt, Pulumi, CloudFormation, Kubernetes and Ansible workflows behind one governed control plane. Its pitch is less about writing infrastructure code than making that code safe for a whole organization to use: automated plans, approvals, policy checks, drift detection, audit trails, self-service templates, private workers and, increasingly, AI-assisted operations.

- **Founded:** 2020
- **Headquarters:** Redwood City, United States
- **Founders:** Marcin Wyszynski (Co-founder and Chief Product Officer), Pawel Hytry (Co-founder and CEO)
- **Products:** Spacelift Deploy, Self-Hosted, Spacelift Intent, Spacelift Plugins, Spacelift Templates
- **Notable:** Spacelift reports 948 customer companies and more than 3 million infrastructure deployments., Raised $51 million in Series C funding in July 2025, bringing publicly reported funding to about $73.6 million., Helped initiate the OpenTF effort that became OpenTofu under the Linux Foundation after Terraform’s 2023 license change.

## Products & services

- **Spacelift Deploy** — A control plane for infrastructure provisioning, configuration and governance, with runs, approvals, stack dependencies, drift detection, OPA policy as code, audit trails and private workers.
- **Self-Hosted** — An enterprise deployment option for regulated, on-premises and air-gapped environments that need tighter control over platform data and execution.
- **Spacelift Intent** — An MCP-based natural-language interface that calls OpenTofu providers directly, retains plan/apply controls and audit history, and can export Terraform rather than merely generating HCL.
- **Spacelift Plugins** — First-class workflow extensions for security scanners, cost tools, secrets systems and custom integrations, supported by the open-source Spaceforge SDK.
- **Spacelift Templates** — Versioned, immutable and centrally governed self-service infrastructure definitions that developers can deploy through validated forms.
- **Spacelift Intelligence** — An AI product layer combining an infrastructure-aware assistant with natural-language deployment through Intent while retaining the platform’s existing governance model.
- **Spacelift Flows** — A visual, audited automation canvas for Day 2 operations, incident enrichment, drift alerts, environment vending and agent workflows, launched with more than 40 templates.
