  • AI-powered CRM orchestrates work across departments for fast, seamless experiences across the entire customer lifecycle to drive productivity and fuel growth
  • New AI agents for CRM make true self-service a reality for customers like Pure Storage by completing tasks autonomously

ServiceNow (NYSE: NOW), the AI platform for business transformation, has unveiled the next milestone in its groundbreaking CRM designed to disrupt an industry long dominated by outdated, overbuilt systems. In a bold move to challenge the status quo, ServiceNow reimagines CRM for the AI era to sell, fulfill, and service on one unified platform to drive exceptional end-to-end experiences. AI-powered CRM orchestrates work across departments for fast, seamless experiences across the entire customer lifecycle, reducing time spent swiveling between applications and customer requests. In addition, ServiceNow announced new AI agents for CRM that can complete tasks autonomously, scale call centers and sales teams, and make true self-service a reality.

Traditional CRM serves as a system of record ending at the front office, putting customer acquisition and retention at risk. ServiceNow CRM is built for an AI-first world, providing personalized and proactive experiences across the entire customer lifecycle. The ServiceNow AI Platform connects workflows across systems and departments, eliminating inefficient processes tied together by spreadsheets, shared inboxes, and human middleware.

ServiceNow CRM is growing at an impressive rate as customers demand a better way to connect sellers, agents, and field technicians all on the same unified platform. CRM is the company’s fastest-growing workflow business with annual contract value (ACV) of $1.4 billion, growing 30% year-over-year as of year-end 2024. The entire customer experience resides on a single platform supercharged with agentic AI capabilities, so businesses can deliver what customers want quickly, drive increased productivity, boost revenue opportunities, and foster a whole new level of customer loyalty.

“ServiceNow is delivering a groundbreaking new vision for CRM that transforms the entire customer experience around the powerful capabilities of AI. Far beyond rebranded chatbots, we’re enabling our customers to orchestrate end-to-end sales and service on a single AI-powered platform, helping organizations manage the entire customer lifecycle with greater efficiency,” said John Ball, ServiceNow EVP and GM of CRM and Industry Workflows. “ServiceNow does things differently – delivering complete workflow automation from order capture through fulfillment, allowing customers to focus on value-added selling and delivering exceptional service to their own customers, not wasting time tangled up in out-of-date systems.”

AI Agents power seamless, intelligent customer experiences

Today’s customers expect more than fast service—they want personalized, proactive experiences that anticipate their needs and resolve issues without friction. New capabilities in ServiceNow CRM deliver intelligent solutions to help businesses shift from reactive customer service to proactive engagement and ensure consistent end-to-end service experiences across departments.

ServiceNow today unveiled CRM AI Agents, a suite of specialized AI agents designed to autonomously orchestrate and complete tasks across the entire customer lifecycle—from selling and fulfilling to servicing. Unlike traditional automation requiring predefined rules, these AI agents can dynamically determine the best course of action by resolving inquiries instantly, routing complex cases with full context, and managing workflows across departments. These agents start with conversational interactions to capture customer requests, and can then seamlessly manage the entire fulfillment process, coordinating with live agents when human intervention is needed.

At ServiceNow, AI agents are already automating 37% of the company’s customer support case workflows. By scaling live call center agents, they boost efficiency, accelerate resolutions, and enhance customer engagement, enabling businesses to shift to proactive, autonomous AI-driven experiences.

The news follows a drumbeat of innovation from the ServiceNow CRM and Industry Workflows business, an innovator in the customer service and support market since 2016. In April, ServiceNow signed a definitive agreement to acquire Logik.ai, an industry leader with a modern, AI-powered, and composable CPQ solution to expand ServiceNow’s growing CRM footprint and empower sales organizations to close deals faster, boost productivity levels, and achieve greater efficiency. ServiceNow’s recent Yokohama platform release also strengthened CRM capabilities like self-service commerce portals, turnkey CCaaS integrations, and AI agents designed specifically for CRM use cases.

By connecting AI, data, and workflows organization-wide on a single platform, ServiceNow is advancing in its CRM leadership to sell, fulfill and service from first contact to resolution.
