How do you build cloud infrastructure if you’re not a DevOps expert?

I’m working on a tool called ArchFormation, and I’d love some honest feedback from people who actually build and deploy things.

The problem I’m trying to solve:
Many developers and small teams need production-ready cloud infrastructure, but don’t have deep DevOps experience. They either copy Terraform from blogs or spend a lot of time figuring out AWS services, IAM, networking, etc.

The idea:
An AI Infrastructure Assistant that suggests cloud architectures using pre-optimized Terraform modules. You can visually adjust every service on a canvas, review everything, and export Terraform code or deploy with an AI assistant, while staying in control.

I’m not trying to replace Terraform or DevOps, just make common architectures easier and safer to assemble.

Landing page (for context, not a signup push):
https://archformation.com/ai-infrastructure-assistant

Questions I’d genuinely love feedback on:

Is this a real pain for you or your team?

Would you trust an AI assistant if you can fully review and edit the infrastructure?

What would make this helpful vs “I’ll just do it myself with AWS + Terraform”?

Happy to hear critical feedback — I’m validating whether this is worth building.
