Automation & Reusability to Streamline Your IT Operations
Quali Torque reduces tickets and eliminates manual work with continuous delivery of managed environments for non-production workloads.
Eliminate the Bottlenecks That Slow Down
Your IT Operations
Quali Torque creates reusable blueprints for any workload that can be delivered via self-service.
Reduce Tickets
Deliver a self-service experience for your teams to run pre-configured blueprints for the workloads they need, on-demand.
Eliminate Redundant Provisioning
Create reusable Environment as Code blueprints that can be provisioned repeatedly, automated, and integrated where they’re needed.
Automate Day 2 Operations
Spend less time on routine day-to-day maintenance with automated and streamlined execution of critical Day 2 actions for your live environments.

Quali Torque Simplifies End-to-End Infrastructure Management
Leverage IaC
Torque leverages your existing Infrastructure as Code (IaC) modules and automatically generates new IaC files directly from your cloud accounts to build an inventory of reusable assets that can be delivered and optimized continuously.
AI Infrastructure Orchestration
Submit natural-language AI prompts describing how your IaC resources should be configured to automate the design and creation of a reusable Environment as Code blueprint that can provision it.
Self-Service & Lifecycle Automation
Torque automates the provisioning and shut-down of routine environments that your teams need each day, while also providing a secure, simple, and role-based catalog where end users can find and launch environments in just a few clicks.
Automated Governance & Day 2
Since Torque provisions and monitors all environments, the platform can automatically deny the deployment of any resource that violates your custom standards, trigger notifications about configuration drift or other errors, and automate the execution of routine Day 2 actions.
Cost & Activity Reports
Torque provides an on-demand view into recent activity so you can identify and investigate anomalies proactively, while aggregating data on activity, performance, and cloud costs to surface trends and issues disrupting your IT operations.

Frequently Asked Questions
Many IT operations teams use Torque to streamline the delivery of non-production software environments, such as those supporting software demos, training, or customer proof-of-concept deployments.
Torque creates reusable Environment as Code blueprints defining all the infrastructure, applications, and other services needed to deliver the environment, then makes them accessible for end users to deploy them via self-service. Role-based access controls, centralized secrets management, and custom policies prevent the deployment of any environment that doesn’t adhere to their custom standards for security, compliance, or cloud costs.
This approach also enables IT operations teams to automate the deployment and termination of these environments in line with their actual needs. Meanwhile, Torque workflows define complex Day 2 actions as code that can be executed automatically based on custom schedules, in response to custom events, as well as on-demand via a single click in the Torque UI.
As a result, IT operations teams accelerate the delivery of cloud services, reduce time and manual effort spent managing those services, and optimize cloud costs by eliminating wasteful operations.
One common use case among IT operations teams is the delivery of non-production environments for software demos or training.
To eliminate the traditional ticket-request process for these environments, Torque creates reusable Environment as Code blueprints defining them, makes them available for end users to deploy in just a few clicks, and automates the management of those environments over time.
In addition to eliminating the redundant tickets and orchestration of these environments, this has the benefit of optimizing costs. For example, IT operations teams use Torque to schedule the daily lifecycle of these environments so they’re only deployed when they’re needed. This eliminates wasted cloud costs due to idle resources that run 24/7 without requiring manual intervention.
Torque is not an Infrastructure as Code (IaC) tool, but it does streamline the adoption and management of IaC.
Torque discovers and leverages the IaC modules in the user’s repositories, then provides a layer of management, control, and visibility to improve the management of those IaC resources. For example, teams that may integrate and automate their IaC via other tools can continue to do so, with the added benefit of governance, automation, and visibility to ensure all infrastructure operates in line with their custom standards.
Torque also accelerates the adoption of IaC by connecting to the user’s public cloud accounts (with support for AWS and Azure), discovering all resources deployed via those accounts, and automatically generating new IaC files defining those resources. These IaC modules can also be discovered and managed via the Torque account.
When leveraging IaC, Torque normalizes these definitions in the platform so they can be orchestrated easily. Torque’s AI Copilot allows users to submit natural-language AI prompts to automate the design and creation of an Environment as Code blueprint, while Torque’s graphical UI allows users to modify the dependencies and input parameters supporting their environment quickly and easily.
Think of Torque as an AI-supported control plane for your Infrastructure as Code.
