DX
Application
DX AI is a conversational interface for exploring an organization's engineering data held in DX, described by the vendor as 'the copilot for engineering leaders.' It answers natural-language questions with generated charts, summarizes qualitative snapshot data into themes and sentiment, and diagnoses the drivers behind metric changes. Its data can also be streamed into external LLM clients via the DX MCP server.
Workday
Application
Scores and ranks job candidates, surfaces likely-to-apply leads from existing talent databases and partner networks, and sends recruiters AI-driven task notifications inside Workday Recruiting and tools such as Microsoft Teams.
AI-driven contract analysis and management, powered by Evisort AI, extracting insights from contract repositories via natural-language queries -- the analytical layer distinct from Workday's Contract Lifecycle Management, which handles the operational workflow.
Contract drafting, automated redlining, negotiation and approval powered by Evisort AI, with an AI-searchable clause library, custom AI models and an Ask AI function for querying stored contracts.
An AI-powered applicant tracking system for high-volume frontline hiring that automates candidate screening, interview scheduling and onboarding through mobile-first conversational interactions.
No counterpart
DX sells these in a stack layer with no product recorded for Workday yet — nothing on the other side to compare them against.
API service
The DX MCP server exposes a customer's DX data to MCP-compatible AI clients such as Claude, Cursor and Devin Desktop. It is deliberately read-only, offering tools to list and retrieve software catalog entities, scorecards and initiatives, and teams, plus execution of SQL queries against the DX Data Cloud PostgreSQL database. It is available as a DX-hosted remote endpoint at ai.getdx.com/mcp or run locally from DX's open-source dx-mcp-server repository.
Developer tool
AI Code Insights measures what AI coding agents produce inside an engineering organization, tracking AI-generated code by commit, PR, team, agent and repo from IDE to production. It attributes authorship by monitoring supported coding agents' edits and links them to commits, pull requests and deployments, reporting adoption, delivery velocity, code-quality signals and session-level agent performance. It includes the Agent Experience report, which scores requirements clarity, steering and task scope from the agent's perspective.
Command-line interface to a DX instance, built so coding agents can drive it: it ships an agent skill telling an agent when and how to call the CLI, and covers the same catalog, scorecard and self-service operations a human uses the dashboard for.
Fabric is DX's context layer for AI agents, marketed as 'the context engine for AI-native engineering.' It turns an organization's software catalog into structured, live context that agents can query, and adds scorecards and self-service automation so agents can create services, provision infrastructure and resolve failing standards checks. Context is exposed to any MCP-compatible agent via the DX MCP server.
Workday sells these in a stack layer with no product recorded for DX yet — nothing on the other side to compare them against.
AI agent
A conversational AI agent that lets job candidates search and apply for roles, complete qualification screening and self-schedule interviews via chat, SMS or WhatsApp in over 30 languages.
Agent platform
Workday's hub for registering, managing and governing AI agents alongside the human workforce, with lifecycle management, third-party agent integration via an Agent Gateway, identity permissioning and an analytics view of agent activity.
Workday's AI agent platform for HR, finance, IT and legal workflows, running on Workday's own transaction data -- rebranded from 'Illuminate' in March 2026 after Workday's $1.1B acquisition of Sana closed in November 2025.
