Infosys launches over 200 enterprise AI agents to transform enterprise workflows
Infosys has launched over 200 enterprise AI agents powered by Infosys TopazTM AI offerings and Google Cloud's Vertex AI Platform. These AI agents are part of the Infosys Topaz offerings and are intended to simplify complex workflows and support large-scale business operations across various industries. The AI agents serve multiple sectors, including healthcare, finance, retail, telecom, manufacturing, and agriculture. They are built to manage diverse and often unstructured data through advanced machine learning and cognitive capabilities. Key functions include extracting useful information from raw data and supporting multimodal data processing, allowing them to work with text, images, and other input types. Security and data privacy are embedded in their design, with encrypted communication channels and compliance measures aimed at protecting sensitive enterprise information. One of the notable aspects of these AI agents is their ability to make decisions autonomously. This allows businesses to automate parts of their operations, reducing the need for manual oversight in many routine or complex tasks. In practice, these agents are being applied in several business scenarios. In network operations, for example, they help monitor network capacity in real time, which can reduce downtime and improve service reliability. In corporate finance, they support tasks like managing payables and receivables, contributing to more accurate financial tracking and improved cash flow management. In manufacturing, the AI agents assist in demand forecasting for components, helping streamline inventory and supply chain processes. The launch represents a step toward more scalable AI integration in enterprise settings, with a focus on practical use cases and measurable outcomes.
