What is an AI agent?

An AI agent is a digital colleague that can take action.

AI agents can perform tasks, make recommendations, interact with systems and support your people. But unlike human employees, they need clear governance, defined authority and human oversight.

Perform tasks autonomously
Access information
Interact with systems and people
Make recommendations and generate outputs
Work alongside your teams

The reality

Capability without accountability creates risk.

AI agents can be powerful, but they do not understand context, take responsibility or consider the wider impact of their actions. That’s why governance matters.
