Big update (short version)
Major cloud and AI providers have pushed “AI agents” from research demos into easy-to-deploy products. These agents can securely connect to your CRM, spreadsheets, BI tools, and calendars to fetch data, create reports, take routine actions, and even run multi-step workflows. For businesses, that shift makes practical automation and smarter reporting much faster and cheaper to achieve.
Why this matters for your business
– Faster, better decisions: Agents can generate weekly sales snapshots, flag at-risk deals, and surface root causes in minutes instead of hours.
– Lower cost for routine work: Lead enrichment, follow-up emails, and status reporting are now automatable end-to-end.
– More useful reporting: Combining retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) with agents gives context-aware, auditable narratives on top of dashboards — not just charts.
– Real risks to manage: Data access, compliance, and hallucinations still matter. An agent that can act on your systems needs guardrails and logging.
