A pre-apply validator that compares AI-generated infrastructure plans with live cloud state and explains missed resources, destructive operations, policy breaches, and cost deltas.
An AI can produce a syntactically valid infrastructure plan while reasoning from a cloud that no longer exists. A hand-created resource, old drift, incomplete inventory, or misunderstood dependency turns a plausible plan into an unplanned deletion or an expensive surprise. The team accountable for the apply needs a second view grounded in live state, not another explanation of the plan's own assumptions.
The engineering or infrastructure team at a 10–100-person company that is allowing AI to author infrastructure plans and remains accountable for every production apply.
The idea resolves a sharp new tension between agent-authored infrastructure and live cloud reality using mature data sources and a highly leveraged pre-apply software boundary.
The buyer role and budget remain under-specified, and infrastructure policy and drift incumbents sit close enough to the opportunity to add agent-aware validation.
