Asana Acquires StackAI, Adding Cross-System Execution for Human-Agent Teams

SAN FRANCISCO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--May 28, 2026--

Asana, Inc. (NYSE: ASAN)(LTSE: ASAN), the operating system for human-agent teams, today announced it has completed the acquisition of StackAI. StackAI is a no-code AI workflow platform that enables companies to design, test, deploy and govern custom AI agents and intelligent automation of business-critical workflows. The platform connects workflows, data, and actions across enterprise systems such as ERP, CRM and ITSM, to automate operational processes like customer support, IT service requests, compliance workflows, and broader cross-functional business operations. Based in San Francisco, the company has built an impressive track record with customers across financial services, healthcare, and professional services; industries that demand the highest security, reliability, and enterprise-grade governance.

StackAI is one of the few products that can execute these processes end-to-end across enterprise tools with multi-agent workflows - reading and acting in Salesforce, AWS, Docusign, Oracle, document systems, and industry applications through bi-directional sync.

Bringing StackAI and Asana together pairs cross-system execution with the platform where teams already plan and run their work alongside the context, ownership, and history of every project. AI Teammates serve as the bridge, pulling context from the Work Graph® into StackAI workflows and sending resulting actions and data back into Asana. While most AI tools today are designed for one person working with one agent, Asana agents are multiplayer and allow many people to interact with and improve a single agent through approvals, handoffs, and shared plans. This makes it possible for humans and agents to collaborate on workflows that span any system or team, and those workflows get smarter every time they run.

Dan Rogers, CEO of Asana, explains, "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.”

The StackAI team is led by co-founders Tony Rosinol and Bernard Aceituno, both MIT PhDs who are shaping the next wave of enterprise AI. They are joining Asana as part of the acquisition.

Tony Rosinol from StackAI states, “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.”

Rogers continued, "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."

Asana Acquires StackAI, Adding Cross-System Execution for Human-Agent Teams

DUBAI, United Arab Emirates (AP) — Iran stopped communicating with mediators about extending a ceasefire in the war with the U.S. and Israel, two semiofficial Iranian news agencies reported Tuesday, as tensions flared in Israel's separate but related fight against the Iranian-backed militia Hezbollah in Lebanon.

The halt in communication was likely meant to increase pressure on U.S. President Donald Trump over negotiations on the Iran war ceasefire and loosening the Islamic Republic's chokehold on the Strait of Hormuz and the oil, gas and other commodities that normally pass through it. Trump then could potentially push Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to halt or slow the advance of his forces, which have moved deeper into Lebanon than at any time in over a quarter of a century.

U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio did not address the reported cutoff in communications as he testified at a congressional hearing in Washington. Instead, he sounded an optimistic note about the nuclear dimension of the negotiations, while cautioning that there's no guarantee of reaching "a deal that’s acceptable.”

The reports by the Fars and Tasnim news agencies, both believed to be close to Iran’s paramilitary Revolutionary Guard, come as the conflicts in Iran and Lebanon have increasingly become conjoined. Iran insists that any potential truce in the war there must also quell the fighting in Lebanon, where Hezbollah remains one of Iran's chief allies in its self-described “axis of resistance” against Israel.

A regional official involved in the mediation, speaking on condition of anonymity to discuss the talks, told The Associated Press that Iran had not communicated at all on Tuesday after saying that a ceasefire needed to be enforced in Lebanon for negotiations to continue.

Israel and the U.S. maintain the fighting in Lebanon is separate from the Iran war talks.

Meanwhile, year-on-year inflation in Iran reached a level in May unseen since World War II, underlining the economic pain average Iranians are facing. While the U.S. is eager to ease the Islamic Republic's grip on the strait — through which a fifth of all traded oil and natural gas passed in peacetime — Iran faces economic challenges as its oil-backed economy remains under a U.S. naval blockade.

Economic pressure touched off nationwide protests in Iran in 2017 into 2018, when rising food prices sparked demonstrations that killed over 20 people and saw hundreds arrested. The next year, an increase in government-subsidized gasoline prices caused protests that saw over 300 people reportedly killed.

Then came the protests over the collapsing value of Iran's currency, the rial, at the start of this year. They were the most intense demonstrations to shake the Islamic Republic since its 1979 revolution and the chaotic years that followed. Iran's theocracy met January's protests with a crackdown on demonstrators in January that killed over 7,000 people, according to activists' estimates.

Now, even as hard-liners hold gun-handling workshops and organize marriages under the shadow of a ballistic missile to bolster spirits, experts note there could be new demonstrations if people find themselves priced out of feeding their families.

“I have no doubt that if Trump leaves (Iran without a formal peace deal) ... most probably, we will see something like January by the end of summer because of the economic and social situations," analyst Mohsen Jalilvand said in a video published by Iran's Fararu news website.

Iran's Central Bank said the consumer price index, which measures a basket of goods and services, reached 77.2% in May compared with the year before. The rate is 8.5% higher than in April, the bank added. Inflation in daily and general needs — like medicine, taxi fares, tobacco and communication fees — rose 113.8% from the year before.

A private economic think tank in Iran, the Bamdad Institute of Economic Studies, described the current figures as “an unprecedented rate since World War II.” Iran’s Central Bank did not acknowledge the significance of the figures.

The previous record came in 1942. During the war, the British and Soviets invaded Iran and took over its railway, disrupting food supplies. The lack of food, worsened by a poor harvest, sparked hyperinflation and a famine. Hunger and a typhus outbreak killed many.

Airstrikes this year have greatly damaged Iran's businesses and its oil industry, Meanwhile, the U.S. blockade has been targeting Iranian crude oil shipments trying to reach the international market, a key source of hard revenue. Tax revenues have been depressed by businesses struggling even after the fighting paused.

The rial, which traded at 32,000 to $1 in 2015, now trades at over 1.7 million to $1.

“We will definitely have higher prices," Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian warned in May. "We are fighting, and we must accept this hardship.”

Tehran-based economist Saeed Leilaz, speaking to the AP, warned that annual inflation in Iran could reach 80%.

"Iran’s society cannot tolerate above 25%” annual inflation, he said.
