NVIDIA and ServiceNow announced an expanded partnership to develop autonomous AI agents for enterprise use, unveiled at ServiceNow Knowledge 2026.

The collaboration focuses on delivering governed, secure AI agents capable of executing complex, multi-step workflows across enterprise systems. A key highlight is “Project Arc,” a self-evolving desktop agent designed to assist knowledge workers such as developers and IT teams by interacting directly with local systems and applications.

The solution integrates NVIDIA’s accelerated computing and open models with ServiceNow’s workflow and governance platforms, enabling enterprises to deploy AI agents with greater control, auditability, and security. The initiative also emphasizes efficiency, leveraging NVIDIA’s AI infrastructure to significantly reduce operational costs for large-scale AI deployments.

The partnership reflects a broader shift toward autonomous, action-oriented AI systems, where enterprises prioritize not just AI reasoning but real-world execution within controlled environments.
ServiceNow reported first-quarter 2026 results, with total revenue rising 22% year-over-year to $3.77 billion and subscription revenue reaching $3.67 billion. The company exceeded the high end of its guidance and raised its full-year subscription revenue outlook, supported by rapid growth in AI-driven offerings.

Demand for its AI platform remained strong, with high-value customer contracts increasing significantly and continued expansion of its “Now Assist” and autonomous AI solutions. ServiceNow also highlighted recent acquisitions and partnerships, including collaborations with Google Cloud and NVIDIA, to enhance enterprise AI capabilities.

The company emphasized that its integrated AI platform and workflow automation tools are driving adoption across industries, positioning it for continued growth as businesses scale AI deployments.

The new offerings integrate quality management, warranty claims, order operations, and complex product configuration into unified workflows, enabling end-to-end AI execution rather than fragmented automation.

ServiceNow also introduced “Industrial Connected Workforce” and “EmployeeWorks,” designed to digitize frontline operations, preserve institutional knowledge, and provide workers with a conversational AI interface to handle tasks across IT, HR, and facilities.

The company highlighted that its platform helps manufacturers improve efficiency, reduce defects, prevent revenue leakage, and bridge gaps between internal systems and external supply chains, supporting broader digital transformation across the industry.

ServiceNow Embeds AI Across Entire Platform with New Context Engine

ServiceNow announced that all of its products are now fully AI-enabled, marking a shift toward a unified, AI-native platform for enterprise workflows.

The company introduced its new Context Engine, designed to provide real-time enterprise context—such as data relationships, policies, and decision history—to improve the accuracy and effectiveness of AI-driven actions. This allows AI agents not only to assist users but also to execute tasks autonomously across business processes.

ServiceNow also launched new developer capabilities, enabling applications to be built using external tools and deployed directly onto its platform, alongside a new tiered offering model that integrates AI, data, security, and governance by default.

The move aims to eliminate fragmented AI add-ons and accelerate enterprise adoption by providing a fully integrated system for automation, decision-making, and workflow execution.

Cohesity and ServiceNow announced a strategic partnership to improve resilience and recovery for enterprise AI agents. The collaboration integrates ServiceNow’s AI Agent Control Tower with the Cohesity Data Cloud to allow organizations to quickly restore data and systems to a trusted state if AI agents cause disruptions due to errors, compromised prompts or corrupted data.
