ServiceNow's powerful new AI Agent Orchestrator ensures teams of specialized AI agents work together across tasks, systems, and departments to achieve a specific goal. In addition, thousands of pre-built agents across IT, customer service, HR, and more, plus the new AI Agent Studio for building fully customized agents, are ready to take action and drive exponential productivity at scale. Unlike others, ServiceNow AI Agents and their capabilities are built directly into the single, trusted ServiceNow Platform, so customers' existing investments in workflow, automation, and data power agentic AI from day one. With access to billions of pieces of information and fueled by millions of automations, knowledge sources, and tools, ServiceNow AI Agents redefine productivity without limits.
IDC1 projects that 50% of organizations will use enterprise AI agents configured for specific business functions in 2025. While this promises a future where AI agents lift the burden of repetitive tasks and give people time back to focus on what really matters, many of today's agents are simply chatbots and not agentic. These single function AI agents fall short of this vision and further add to the hornet's nest of complexity—fragmented processes and siloed information stuck in outdated systems.
Because ServiceNow built agentic AI directly into its platform, ServiceNow AI Agents have access to billions of pieces of information and millions of automations across customers' instances. This enables the AI agents to quickly learn the company's knowledge and start using it right away to take effective action. ServiceNow AI Agents understand and adapt to business needs and take autonomous actions to get work done. With its single architecture, single data model, and single platform, ServiceNow's approach to agentic AI helps drive faster, smarter results across every business process.
"In a future with millions of AI agents acting as your new digital workforce, ServiceNow serves as the AI agent control tower, bringing order to chaos," said Amit Zavery, president, chief product officer and chief operating officer at ServiceNow. "Agentic AI without unification creates more complexity within an enterprise. The ability of ServiceNow AI Agents to work together on tasks that draw from multiple systems and departments truly stands out. With a single location to orchestrate agents and prevent sprawl, our AI agents collaborate like active participants at work, acting as true extensions of their human counterparts."
Conducting the AI orchestra
In this new world of agentic AI, the ServiceNow Platform serves as the AI agent control tower—a connection layer across every corner of a business—enabling ServiceNow's new AI Agent Orchestrator to elevate the way organizations operate, transforming groups of AI agents into a symphony working toward a common goal.
Unlike single function AI agents that complete only simple conversational tasks, the new ServiceNow AI Agent Orchestrator enables inter-agent communication and centralized coordination. This ensures AI agents can efficiently share information and hand off tasks regardless of where the process starts, making them indispensable for managing complex workflows.
For example, onboarding a new customer or triaging a network security incident are regular occurrences for many businesses, but they are not simple processes. Properly onboarding just one new customer requires coordination across multiple departments—from gathering customer information for contracts to addressing requests through support teams. AI Agent Orchestrator helps ensure the specialized AI agents handling each of these tasks work together to achieve the broader goal—getting a new customer up and running smoothly. When a network issue arises, AI Agent Orchestrator manages custom AI agents drawing from sources such as network management software, security information and event management systems, application performance monitoring, and more to work together to stop the problem in its tracks–identifying the issue, creating a resolution plan, and executing it once approved by a human network operator.
"At EY, we are committed to being both a pioneer and practical leader in AI development and deployment, creating frameworks that blend ethical governance, innovation with execution," said Raj Sharma, EY Global Managing Partner – Growth and Innovation. "AI agents are critical to empower teams with intelligent capabilities working in collaboration between humans and AI. This is why we are working with ServiceNow and our Ecosystems partners to harness the full potential of agentic AI across our AI platforms at enterprise-scale, enabling us to integrate and contextualize data across our entire organization in real time, with the high levels of trust and transparency we need built in."
New AI agents power the next era of AI
With thousands of AI agents on the ServiceNow Platform, ServiceNow continues to roll out more each day. Plus, with an industry-leading partner ecosystem—including Accenture, Cognizant, and Deloitte—actively building and releasing new AI agents on the ServiceNow Store, ServiceNow supports an unmatched combination of AI agent use cases and capabilities to power the millions of business processes ServiceNow customers complete each year.
Unlike other agents tied to individual clouds or limited data sources, ServiceNow AI Agents have a unique competitive advantage: 20 years of automation data and outcomes from tackling the most complex enterprise workflow challenges. Powered by insights from structured and unstructured sources, customers get productive AI agents from day one. This latest ServiceNow AI Agent launch will deliver thousands more pre-trained AI agents for IT, customer service, HR, and more to take action and automate critical business processes at unprecedented speed.
"Raleigh is among the fastest-growing cities in the nation, and we're dedicated to making AI a key driver in enhancing the lives of our employees and residents—whether through optimizing traffic management or streamlining operations across city departments," said Mark Wittenburg, Chief Information Officer for the City of Raleigh.

Build your own AI agents with AI Agent Studio
The new ServiceNow AI Agent Studio extends the power of agentic AI to every user in the enterprise, allowing organizations to create and deploy custom AI agents that are integrated with enterprise-wide workflows and data through an intuitive no-code language-based interface. Customers simply describe the outcome they want to achieve, the role of the AI agents, and the processes they want to build through natural language prompts—not code—and AI Agent Studio will build a team of AI agents, managed by the AI Agent Orchestrator, that are ready to work immediately driving business efficiency. The platform guides users through creating, testing, and activating AI agents for custom use cases.
AI Agent Studio integrates seamlessly with automation tools already on the ServiceNow Platform such as skills, flows, and processes, giving organizations the flexibility to customize AI agents to meet their specific needs.
