An Agentic Orchestrator Between Your ITSM, Git, and AAP

You already run these systems. BacklogZero drafts, commits, and pushes between them.

BacklogZero® Agentic Workflow: Jira and ITSM into BacklogZero, then GitHub for CI/CD, then Analytics, EDA, and AAP (Ansible Automation Platform), with visibility and feedback to operators and infrastructure outputs.

See it run

From ticket to job template... in a matter of clicks

BacklogZero drafts the playbook. You review, commit, and push to AAP.

Tickets sit in ITSM. Playbooks are still written by hand. The backlog never becomes job templates.

Agents draft from the ticket. You refine, commit to Git, and push to Controller. Test in dev. Run in prod.

BacklogZero in action

Service request → Ansible playbook generation and refinement → Git commit → push to AAP.

Greater Ansible ROI Starts Here

More job templates for the AAP nodes you already licensed

  1. The true ROI of AAP is measured by the job templates that exist and actually get run.
  2. Most of the work that gets automated starts as tickets. But then someone has to write the playbooks.
  3. BacklogZero drafts Ansible playbooks from your backlog. Your team reviews and refines. AAP runs only what you promote.
  4. $15 per managed AAP node per year, sold in 100-node packs.

Self-hosted by default

Your model. Your perimeter. Your AAP Controller.

Runs on infrastructure you control. No cloud LLM keys required.

BacklogZero is built to run entirely on your own infrastructure, because that's how it works in our own environments. No cloud LLM API keys needed. No long-term vendor lock-in. You control the language model, the data access, and the privacy perimeter.

Level Up believes your company should be driving your future with AI, not simply along for the ride with large language model providers.
