Cora Fall 2025 Roadmap: What's Shipping Next

Building the best Terraform visualization platform

When we started Cora, we had a simple vision: give platform engineers a single pane of glass to understand their Terraform footprint. Not just a static diagram generator, but an intelligent system that reveals relationships, surfaces risks, and accelerates decision-making across hundreds of workspaces and thousands of resources.

The best visualization tools don't just render data—they help you reason about it. They let you ask "what depends on this?" and get an answer in seconds. They show you compliance gaps before auditors do. They make the invisible visible: cross-account dependencies, orphaned resources, blast radius scope, cost hotspots.

That's the bar we're aiming for. Here's what we're shipping this fall to get there.

Recently shipped

Module Layout View

Platform engineers rely on Terraform module boundaries to reason about ownership and deployment blast radius. Our new module layout groups resources by their Terraform module hierarchy, making auditing module boundaries and verifying resource placement dramatically faster—especially for large mono-repos with deeply nested modules.

Security & Compliance Checks

Organizations using Cora now get continuous security visibility over Terraform-managed infrastructure. Automated rule evaluation maps resources to CIS benchmarks and custom policies. Security teams get filterable dashboards across accounts with automated CSV exports—no more manual audits or ad-hoc scripts.

Workspace Diff Viewer

Teams working across multiple Terraform workspaces can now quickly understand configuration drift and missing resources. Compare two workspaces side-by-side to surface discrepancies—missing security groups, orphaned Route53 records, networking mismatches. This accelerates environment reviews and improves infrastructure hygiene.

Export & Embed

Platform teams can now generate shareable graph images, PDF reports, and embeddable widgets for internal wikis and dashboards. Circulate infrastructure context without granting full Cora access.

Onboarding Dashboard

We've redesigned the post-login experience. Instead of dropping users directly into the graph, new and infrequent users now see a dashboard with quick paths to their workspaces and projects—reducing confusion and drop-off during the first session.

In progress now

Public Blog Launch

We're launching this evergreen, SEO-friendly blog to share product education, customer stories, and topical Terraform news. Prospective users will better understand how Cora streamlines infrastructure management.

Target: October 2025

Safe Evaluation Experience

Prospective customers want to explore Cora but hesitate to upload production states before security reviews complete. We're building a safe eval mode that demonstrates full value without exposing sensitive data.

Target: October 2025

Blast Radius Viewer

Select any resource and see its downstream impact in real time. Interactive dependency traversal highlights affected resources within seconds, helping you understand the scope of changes or failures before executing a Terraform plan.

Target: Q4 2025

Cost Overlay & Spend Insights

Overlay per-resource monthly costs directly on graph nodes using Infracost integration. See workspace-level spend summaries, identify cost hotspots, and justify architectural changes—all without leaving Cora or switching to Cost Explorer.

Target: Q1 2026

Looking ahead

Drift Detection

Automated alerts when live AWS resources diverge from your Terraform state. We'll compare state snapshots against the actual cloud, surface misconfigurations within 15 minutes, and provide remediation guidance.

Terraform Snippet Visualizer

A public, no-login experience where developers can paste Terraform snippets and see instant visualizations. Perfect for prospective users who want to understand Cora's capabilities before signing in or uploading full states.

Our commitment

Every feature we ship solves a real problem platform teams face daily. We're not building a feature factory—we're building a platform that scales with your Terraform complexity and becomes more valuable as your infrastructure grows.

We publish full specs for every initiative in our public roadmap. You can see the technical plans, timelines, and trade-offs we're making. Want to influence what ships next? Join our early access program and we'll invite you to roadmap reviews.

Thanks to every customer who's shared feedback so far. Let's build the best Terraform visualization platform together.
