Cloudflare is broadening its AI workspace platform with new software integrations and deployment partnerships aimed at helping businesses roll out AI tools without sacrificing security, according to an announcement from the company. The expansion links Cloudflare OS to widely used business applications such as Asana, Box, Canva, GitHub, and Notion, while bringing in professional services firms including EPAM, HappyCog, and Towards AI to assist with rollout. For managed service providers and channel partners, the platform creates potential business around AI integration, governance, and sustained support services.
Cloudflare OS offers a workspace that allows employees to describe the automation or tool they want with one click, after which the platform helps construct it, oversee its launch, and securely link it to required systems without granting broader access than necessary. The company will work with professional services teams to train enterprise staff on using AI tooling inside Cloudflare OS, which now connects to applications like Asana, Box, Canva, ClickHouse, GitHub, Gong, and Notion. For deployment, Cloudflare has partnered with managed service and implementation teams such as EPAM, HappyCog, and Towards AI to support enterprises in putting the platform into production.
"AI tools shouldn't force companies to choose between moving fast and staying secure," said Matthew Prince, co-founder and CEO of Cloudflare. The company built the platform for its own internal teams initially and observed how much quicker and more safely it could operate, he noted. According to Prince, the objective is straightforward: deliver a secure, company-aware AI workspace from the first day, without transforming each deployment into a multi-million dollar engineering undertaking. Tony Lam, head of tech partnerships at Asana, said the promise of workplace AI lies in reducing time spent chasing updates and increasing time on meaningful work, with Cloudflare OS enabling teams to convert ideas into action while using Asana to monitor progress and surface obstacles.
The expanded ecosystem opens doors for IT channel partners to transition AI from trial phases into operational, secure enterprise use. Managed service providers, systems integrators, and solution providers can assist customers in connecting existing business software, building custom AI agents, and automating repetitive tasks through integrations spanning Box, GitHub, Notion, and Asana. Services could range from spotting automation opportunities and setting up integrations to creating industry-tailored solutions that address operational challenges. Cloudflare's AI Gateway features provide groundwork for offerings including AI governance reviews, security oversight, usage tracking, and model tuning. Channel partners can also earn revenue through AI training programs, adoption initiatives, and continuous management services. Partners have the option to conduct AI readiness evaluations, employee training sessions, workflow redesign, and post-launch support, while monitoring performance, optimizing costs, maintaining integrations, and uncovering further automation possibilities as customers expand their AI efforts. The fundamental shift here isn't technical capability but organizational confidence—enterprises historically paralyzed by AI's security and governance complexities now have a path that doesn't require building infrastructure from scratch. Channel partners positioned to translate that platform capability into sector-specific workflows may find themselves indispensable as companies realize generic AI tools still need human judgment to deliver business value.
