Announced at the Deploy 25 developer conference, the new DigitalOcean GenAI Platform empowers developers to easily integrate AI into business applications

AUSTIN, Texas: Today, DigitalOcean (NYSE: DOCN), the simplest scalable cloud for growing tech companies, introduced its new GenAI Platform at the company’s developer conference, Deploy 25, hosted in Austin, Texas. The DigitalOcean GenAI Platform allows customers to use foundational models from third-party providers to build and deploy AI agents in minutes without the need for advanced expertise in AI or machine learning.

DigitalOcean’s new GenAI Platform’s intuitive workflows meet customers wherever they are in their AI journey by allowing them to set up agents with access to robust data pipelines and multi-agent crews. Supporting everyone from AI beginners to seasoned experts, this groundbreaking platform positions DigitalOcean at the forefront of AI development by allowing businesses to build chatbot experiences with third-party foundational models to support a number of real-world use cases such as document analysis, intelligent customer service, automated workflows, and interactive conversational agents, with more use cases on the horizon. The platform is built to be framework-agnostic to allow for a seamless transition from creation to implementation.

“As AI continues to enhance business strategies, it is essential to have a partner like us that is evolving with technology and making AI accessible for users,” said Bratin Saha, Chief Product and Technology Officer at DigitalOcean. “Generative AI is an evolving concept, but our team has worked tirelessly to create an easy-to-use platform that seamlessly integrates with our customers' existing infrastructure and has a low barrier to entry for developers at any expertise level.”

The GenAI Platform makes it simple to create use-case specific agents by bringing your contextual data to foundation LLMs offered by leading third parties. You can not only pull in unstructured data from files but also structured data from databases or APIs to augment your prompts and build rich Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG) workflows. With function calling, you can easily extend the capabilities of your agent with custom code without needing to spin up new processes. Additionally, with included guardrails, you can easily manage your agent's responses, helping to filter out incorrect or inappropriate results. Support for private endpoints and an included chatbot interface makes launching these agents on your website straightforward, enabling you to deliver immediate value to your users.

“As a company that offers a holistic customer platform for plant and machine manufacturers, we explored a few GenAI options to help us create and manage large volumes of documentation for each customer's plant,” said Florian Bauernfeind, Managing Director at Autonoma. “With DigitalOcean’s new GenAI Platform, we are able to quickly create intelligent AI agents that understand each customer's specific context and language - making it easy to read through pages of documentation and search through a variety of content via chatbot. As a company, we are really excited about DigitalOcean’s latest offering as we look to expand our own to transform our customer’s experience.”

As DigitalOcean continues to expand its AI strategy in 2025 and beyond, the GenAI Platform brings new resources and functionality for customers looking to iterate in a competitive marketplace. These innovations will allow growing tech companies to harness their data and implement AI with ease. While select DigitalOcean customers experienced this platform late last year in a private preview, the GenAI Platform is available to all customers starting today, January 22, 2025.

Stay tuned as the DigitalOcean team continues to add exciting new features to the GenAI Platform, including support for URLs as a data source, agent evaluations for AgentOps and CI/CD pipelines, model fine-tuning, and more.
