Stack Overflow’s Next Chapter as the Trust Layer for the Agentic Era

For nearly eighteen years, Stack Overflow’s public platform has delivered trusted technical knowledge to developers. But the world has fundamentally changed since then, including how technologists build products and find the answers they need while doing it. It’s never been more difficult to know if you can rely on the knowledge you’re presented with, especially as agents act with increasing speed and autonomy. CEO Prashanth Chandrasekar and VP of Product Alex Lato will trace Stack Overflow’s evolution through the years, from its legacy as a beloved public platform, to building enterprise knowledge solutions and strategic AI partnerships, and finally unveil its next era: becoming the trusted knowledge layer that gives humans and agents authoritative and actionable context wherever work happens.
