Deploy enterprise AI agents with control and clarity
Cresta gives you a structured, repeatable path from strategy to production, with the ownership model, tooling, and controls your enterprise needs to deploy AI agents with confidence.
Choose your operating model
Cresta supports a flexible range of deployment approaches on the same enterprise foundation. The platform, controls, and security don't change. What changes is how Cresta and your team share ownership, and that can evolve as your needs do.
Cresta leads deployment from strategy through optimization, owning delivery, coordination, and outcomes. Your team stays in the loop without carrying the execution. Best for enterprises that want a fast path to production and clear accountability for results.
Cresta builds and launches your first AI agent, then coaches your team to own everything from there. You get the same control as Customer-Managed, without starting from scratch. Best for teams that want to run their own deployment but need a proven first build to launch from.
Your team configures, tests, and deploys AI agents using Cresta’s tooling, workflows, and guidance. You get full control without having to build or maintain the underlying infrastructure. Best for teams that want to own every aspect of their deployment directly.

Frequently asked questions
Who owns what across Cresta's operating models?
Ownership shifts with the model you choose. In a Cresta-managed deployment, Cresta leads execution and is accountable for delivery, while your team stays informed. With customer-managed, your team owns configuration, testing, and deployment directly, using Cresta's tooling and guardrails. In guided transfer, Cresta builds and launches your first AI agent, then your team takes over updates and future builds. All three run on the same platform, controls, and security needed to run AI agents safely and effectively in production.
How do you manage risk in production?
Before launch, AI agents are thoroughly tested against real customer scenarios. In production, every change goes through a structured release workflow with approvals, versioning, and rollback, and agents are supervised and guided in real-time. Nothing reaches your customers without going through defined controls.
How much effort is required from my internal teams?
Effort scales with how much ownership you take on. Cresta-managed needs the least day-to-day involvement, your team stays informed without being in the platform daily. Customer-managed needs the most, since your team is building and maintaining agents themselves. Guided transfer starts light on your side, then increases once your first agent is live and your team takes over.
Can we change operating models over time?
Yes. Guided transfer is built specifically for this path. Cresta gets your first agent live, then hands off maintenance and future builds to your team.
When does it make sense to buy rather than build AI agents?
Building gives you flexibility, but it also means owning the infrastructure, evaluation systems, and reliability over time. Most enterprises find that the ongoing cost of maintaining that stack outweighs the perceived control. Cresta handles the infrastructure and governance so your team can focus on the use cases that matter to your business.
