Wilson Sonsini Advises Asana on Acquisition of StackAI
On May 28, 2026, Asana, Inc., the operating system for human-agent teams, announced that it has completed the acquisition of StackAI, 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. Wilson Sonsini Goodrich & Rosati advised Asana on the transaction.
The StackAI 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.
