AI agent
Autonomous customer-service AI agent that handles inquiries conversationally across voice, SMS, email, chat and messaging apps and escalates to a human agent with context when it cannot resolve.
SAP
Application
Natural-language generative-AI copilot embedded across SAP's cloud applications, answering questions and taking actions across HR, finance, supply chain, procurement and customer-experience data.
Embedded machine learning that automates matching of incoming payments to open invoices in accounts receivable, learning continuously from accountants' correction behaviour.
End-to-end intelligent document processing for structured and unstructured business documents, using OCR, pretrained transformers and LLMs to extract and validate data, embedded across SAP applications such as Ariba, S/4HANA Cloud and Concur.
AI assistance for consultants working on SAP implementation and cloud-transformation projects, grounded in a knowledge base of SAP-focused content.
AI agent
AI agents encoded with SAP business-process expertise that automate workflows at scale, coordinated by context-aware assistants across finance, supply chain, spend management, HR and customer-experience functions.
