Real AI Agents: Driving Exponential Productivity with ServiceNow

In digital-first world, enterprises are under immense pressure to move faster, operate smarter, and deliver exceptional experiences—without exponentially increasing costs. Traditional automation can only take organizations so far. The next leap in operational efficiency comes from Real AI Agents—intelligent, autonomous systems that learn, reason, and act across your business workflows.

With ServiceNow rapidly evolving AI-powered platform, organizations can now deploy Real AI Agents that deliver measurable productivity gains, reduce manual effort, and unlock new levels of business agility.

What Are Real AI Agents?

Real AI Agents are advanced, outcome-driven digital workers that mimic human decision-making. Unlike basic bots or scripted automation, these agents:

• Understand natural language

• Interpret context and intent

• Execute multi-step tasks independently

• Learn from data and user interactions

• Collaborate with employees and systems

They don’t just follow instructions—they solve problems.

ServiceNow platform, powered by Now Assist and GenAI capabilities, enables organizations to embed these agents within IT, HR, finance, customer operations, and more.
