In their own words
Plural
Plural is an AI tool for infrastructure work, presented for platform and DevOps teams. It can upgrade clusters, resolve incidents, patch vulnerabilities, optimize costs, and execute changes across code, clusters, and cloud. Its project-scoped Workbenches package an AI agent’s prompt, capabilities, tools, and automation triggers for infrastructure operations. Plural says agents can draw on a live semantic graph covering clusters, stacks, services, and changes across an estate. Integrations include Prometheus, Datadog, Loki, Elastic, Tempo, Jaeger, GitHub, GitLab, Bitbucket, Slack, Microsoft Teams, Jira, and Linear. Cloud tools provide SQL-queryable access to AWS, GCP, and Azure data, including billing and infrastructure services. Changes are submitted as pull requests in existing repositories for human review. Plural says actions are logged, permissions are bounded, tool calls and decisions can be inspected, and changes can be reviewed before confirmation. Sandbox is free for a 14-day platform trial. Pro starts at $450/mo for one cluster, with each additional cluster at $250/mo, and includes a 30-day free trial. Pro uses shared Plural infrastructure; Enterprise offers shared, dedicated, or on-prem hosting.
