Nirmata, the maker of Kyverno and a leader in policy-as-code automation, has launched its AI Platform Engineering Assistant. This tool simplifies Kubernetes management. It also automates governance, compliance, and security in cloud-native and hybrid environments.
As companies speed up AI-driven software development, platform teams face growing pressure. They must efficiently manage complex infrastructure. Reports show a 30-fold increase in software creation and over $350 billion invested in AI infrastructure. Many organizations are finding it hard to fill key platform engineering skill gaps. Nirmata’s AI assistant addresses this challenge by automating the most demanding aspects of Kubernetes policy management and security enforcement, enabling teams to operate at scale.
“Platform engineering has become both the bottleneck and the enabler of the AI future,” said Ritesh Patel, Vice President of Product at Nirmata. “Without scalable governance, innovation stalls under complexity and risk. With AI-powered governance, Nirmata transforms policy-as-code into a continuous, intelligent system that enforces compliance without slowing teams down.”
Powered by Kyverno, the CNCF-incubating policy-as-code engine, the new AI assistant employs a multi-agent architecture to automate policy authoring, detection, and remediation. This creates a dynamic governance layer that ensures continuous compliance while keeping engineers involved in critical decision-making.

Key features include:
Copilot Interface – This conversational AI tool lets engineers ask about infrastructure data. It helps them find insights and take compliance actions quickly.
Policy-as-Code Agent – This tool turns natural language rules into validated Kyverno policies for Kubernetes and Infrastructure-as-Code. It reduces errors and ensures consistent governance.
Remediation Agent – This agent spots misconfigurations, suggests secure fixes, and checks them with human oversight. This process cuts resolution times significantly.
The AI Platform Engineering Assistant works with Kubernetes, Infrastructure-as-Code, and CI/CD systems. It offers multi-cluster management and fits seamlessly into existing workflows. By combining automation with intelligence, Nirmata helps businesses stay compliant, enhance security, and boost innovation in their cloud-native environments.
