Digital.ai Release SaaS Release Notes

Release SaaS​

April, 2026

Release SaaS provides a dedicated instance with enterprise-grade capabilities.

  • Dedicated instance - Isolated environment per customer instead of a shared tenant.
  • Multi-user access - Platform-managed authentication with preconfigured user-groups.
  • Higher resource limits - Resource limits are approximately 10x higher than the trial edition.
  • Broader feature set - Dashboards, workflow catalog, global and folder variables, connections, triggers, applications, and environments.
  • Integrations - 30+ pre-installed plugins (standard and container-based), XL CLI and REST API.
  • Cloud-based Release Runner - Limited default runners provided by Digital.ai for container plugin tasks.

Ask Release​

info

Ask Release is actively evolving. New capabilities and improvements are being added regularly.

Ask Release is an AI-powered assistant embedded in Digital.ai Release that lets you interact with the platform using natural language. Instead of navigating multiple screens and manually searching for information, you can ask questions and get immediate, contextual answers about what is happening across your release operations.

Why Ask Release​

Release managers and teams often struggle to get accurate, contextual answers quickly as information is scattered across pipeline views, dashboards, and configuration screens. Ask Release solves this by analyzing your system data and delivering instant answers grounded in the operational context of your Release instance.

Unlike generic AI tools, Ask Release is:

  • Embedded in Release - available directly in the UI, no context switching
  • Permission-aware - only returns data you are authorized to see
  • Grounded in live Release data - answers come from your actual system data via Release MCP tools, not general knowledge

Key Highlights​

  • Conversational AI: Ask questions about your releases and get instant, actionable answers with clickable links, tables, and structured summaries.
  • Status Awareness: Query the status of releases, tasks, approvals, blockers, integrations, and more without navigating multiple screens.
  • Context awareness: Ask Release scopes results based on where you open it—global, folder, or release view.
  • Conversation history: Resume previous conversations from the History tab.
  • Permission-based access: Results follow your existing Release permissions. Ask Release cannot access data you cannot see in the UI.
  • Read-only and secure: Ask Release retrieves and displays information only. It cannot start releases, approve tasks, or modify any data. All interactions are audit logged.

Ask Release is enabled by default in all SaaS environments. For more details, see Ask Release.
