Overview

Scalr is a remote operations backend for Terraform and OpenTofu providing state management, run execution, OPA policy enforcement, cost estimation, drift detection, and a private module registry under a unified organizational hierarchy. The hierarchy (accounts → environments → workspaces) models organizational structures and applies RBAC and policy inheritance from top-level accounts down to individual workspaces.

Scalr AI (launched June 2025) is embedded in the run interface: when a plan fails or an OPA policy blocks a run, Scalr AI reads the failure context and provides a plain-English explanation and suggested fix inline, without a separate chatbot tab.

Terraform and OpenTofu only; no Pulumi, Ansible, or CloudFormation. Free tier: up to 5 workspaces. AI features require Enterprise.

Key Features

  • Hierarchical RBAC: account → environment → workspace hierarchy with policy and permission inheritance, enabling platform teams to set organizational guardrails that workspaces cannot override
  • OPA policy enforcement: Rego policies evaluate every plan before apply with configurable block, warn, or require-approval outcomes; policies inherit down the workspace hierarchy
  • Scalr AI run assistance (June 2025): reads plan failure and OPA policy violation context and produces plain-English explanations and suggested fixes inline in the run view
  • Drift detection: periodically runs plans without apply to detect configuration drift between workspace state and cloud provider, surfacing divergence before it becomes an incident
  • Cost estimation: projects monthly cloud spend from the plan diff using provider pricing APIs, displayed inline in the run before apply is triggered
  • Private module registry: versioned internal Terraform module library with semantic versioning, access controls per workspace, and usage tracking across the organization
