ServiceNow unveils AI agents for autonomous IT operations

LAS VEGAS - ServiceNow (NYSE: NOW), a prominent player in the software industry with a market capitalization of $203.24 billion and impressive gross profit margins of 79%, announced today the launch of new artificial intelligence (AI) capabilities intended to shift IT from a reactive support role to a proactive, strategic element of business. According to InvestingPro data, the company maintains a "GREAT" financial health score, positioning it well for this strategic expansion. At its annual Knowledge 2025 event, the company unveiled AI agents designed to automate and autonomously resolve IT issues before they disrupt operations.

The introduction of these AI agents across various management systems, including IT Service Management (ITSM), IT Operations Management (ITOM), and IT Asset Management (ITAM), signifies a move towards zero outages and service desk incidents. This approach aligns with industry trends, as IDC forecasts that by late 2026, 65% of organizations will use AI to enhance employee and business value.

ServiceNow’s AI agents aim to streamline tasks such as alert triage, root cause analysis, and procurement processes by integrating real-time data from across enterprise systems. The ServiceNow AI platform serves as a central system of action, enabling these agents to perform with precision and governance.

Beyond infrastructure, the new Digital End-User Experience (DEX) capabilities focus on preemptively resolving issues within the digital workplace, thereby reducing downtime and service desk loads. AI agents embedded in self-service and support channels will allow employees to troubleshoot issues independently.

Additionally, ServiceNow is enhancing IT-OT convergence with new Operational Technology (OT) capabilities, applying IT best practices to industrial operations for increased visibility, intelligence, and control. This includes OT Health and the Mission Secure connector, which aim to improve the management of digital and physical infrastructure. Based on InvestingPro’s Fair Value analysis, ServiceNow is currently trading near its Fair Value, suggesting the market has efficiently priced in its technological advantages and growth potential.

The ServiceNow AI Platform integrates third-party data, intelligent agents, and dynamic workflows, providing a unified system of action across departments. This is intended to eliminate silos and enhance decision-making, allowing for faster and more resilient operations.

The company’s advancements in AI and automation are a culmination of its workflow expertise, aiming to redefine IT’s role in business transformation and growth. All of the announced capabilities are available as of today.

This shift towards autonomous IT is already impacting companies like USI Insurance Services, where CVP & CTO Tim Porreca noted that the technology is streamlining service desk interactions, allowing employees to focus on core business activities and growth opportunities.
