Dataiku has announced the general availability of Cobuild, a new AI building agent designed to help enterprises transform business objectives into governed, production-ready AI projects without requiring coding expertise.
The launch addresses one of the most persistent challenges in enterprise AI adoption: the gap between experimentation and large-scale deployment. While organizations have invested heavily in data modernization and AI strategies, many still struggle to move projects from proof-of-concept to production because of governance, compliance, and operational hurdles.
“AI-assisted building compresses the distance between an idea and a production-ready workflow. But in an enterprise, the output has to be explainable, auditable, and safe to put into production.” — Neil Patel, Senior Director, Analytics Experience, Pfizer
Cobuild enables business users to describe a challenge in natural language and automatically generates a complete AI project within the Dataiku platform. The solution uses advanced AI models to identify relevant datasets, design workflows, and create data pipelines, machine learning models, AI agents, and applications. The entire project is presented through a visual workflow, allowing business, IT, and governance teams to review and approve outputs before deployment.
Unlike standalone AI development tools that often operate outside enterprise controls, Cobuild is built directly into Dataiku’s governance and permissioning framework. This ensures that organizations can accelerate AI development while maintaining visibility, compliance, and risk management standards.
The platform also offers flexibility in model selection. Enterprises can leverage Dataiku AI Services or connect their preferred models through Dataiku’s LLM Mesh, supporting major AI ecosystems including OpenAI, Anthropic, Google Gemini, Microsoft Foundry, AWS Bedrock, Snowflake Cortex AI, and Databricks AI Gateway.
“AI-assisted development only matters if the output can survive contact with the enterprise. Cobuild combines AI speed with business ingenuity while ensuring IT retains governance and control.” — Clément Stenac, Co-founder and CTO, Dataiku
As organizations increasingly seek ways to scale AI responsibly, Dataiku positions Cobuild as a solution that combines the speed of generative AI with enterprise-grade governance. By enabling both technical and non-technical teams to participate in AI development, the company aims to reduce AI project backlogs, improve collaboration, and accelerate the delivery of business value.
Dataiku Cobuild will be generally available to customers starting June 18, 2026.
