Building AI shouldn’t feel like rocket science.

With ServiceNow Build Agent, organizations can design, configure, and deploy AI Agents quickly—without writing complex code or managing multiple tools. It’s how ServiceNow turns AI strategy into real execution.


🧠 What Is ServiceNow Build Agent?

Build Agent is ServiceNow’s capability that allows teams to create and customize AI Agents directly on the Now Platform.

Instead of hard‑coded automation or siloed bots, Build Agent helps you build goal‑driven, intelligent agents that operate securely across enterprise workflows.

In simple terms:
Build Agent is where AI Agents are created, trained, and managed.


🛠️ What You Can Do with Build Agent

Build Agent empowers both developers and platform teams to design AI behavior without starting from scratch.

Key Capabilities

  • Define agent goals and tasks
  • Configure reasoning and decision logic
  • Connect agents to workflows, data, and APIs
  • Apply guardrails, approvals, and role‑based access
  • Monitor and refine agent performance over time

This makes AI Agents repeatable, scalable, and enterprise‑ready.


⚙️ No‑Code to Low‑Code Agent Creation

One of the biggest strengths of Build Agent is accessibility.

Teams can:

  • Use guided UI and templates
  • Reuse existing ServiceNow workflows
  • Extend with low‑code tools when needed

This means faster time‑to‑value—with less dependency on deep AI expertise.


🤖 From Idea to Intelligent Action

With Build Agent, an AI Agent can be built to:

  • Handle IT incidents end‑to‑end
  • Automate employee onboarding
  • Respond to customer requests
  • Trigger remediations and updates across systems

You define the goal—the agent figures out the steps.


🔐 Built for Enterprise Trust

Like all ServiceNow AI capabilities, Build Agent is designed with trust at its core:

  • Secure data boundaries
  • Role‑based permissions
  • Auditability and explainability
  • Human approval checkpoints

This ensures AI Agents act responsibly and predictably.


🤝 How Build Agent Fits with Now Assist

These capabilities work best together:

  • Now Assist helps people think, write, and decide faster
  • Build Agent creates AI Agents that take action on their behalf

It’s how ServiceNow enables human‑AI collaboration at scale.


📈 Why Build Agent Matters

Organizations using Build Agent benefit from: ✅ Faster AI adoption
✅ Reduced manual and repetitive work
✅ Consistent and scalable automation
✅ More resilient operations

Most importantly, teams move from experimenting with AI to operationalizing it.


🔮 Final Thought

ServiceNow Build Agent turns AI from an idea into an outcome.
It’s not about building bots—it’s about building intelligent digital workers that understand goals, act securely, and deliver real value.

This is how AI gets built for the enterprise.
