'Today, we're not launching a feature—we're activating the intelligence foundation for our future.' – Jon Lawrence, JAGGAER
As agentic AI is beginning to reshape global commerce, JAGGAER has reimagined the relationship between procurement and technology. JAI is part of JAGGAER One and an evolution of JAGGAER Assist.
JAI is an embedded conversational chatbot powered by LLMs, incorporating Q&A capabilities, PO invoice anomaly detection and Gen AI drafting & summarization with new, more powerful orchestration. With JAI customers will experience intuitive and efficient end-user experiences across the platform – all with an equally important 'Human in the Loop'.
JAGGAER customers can start using JAI Assist today, a conversational assistant with contextual coaching that streamlines procurement by answering questions, guiding navigation, and initiating tasks like RFP creation and supplier evaluation.
Looking further ahead into 2025, JAI Copilot will offer advanced contextual support, identifying outliers and suggesting actions, with real-time guidance across sourcing, contracting, and supplier management saving hours of analysis – followed by JAI Autopilot, the no code/low code agentic platform for autonomously managing complex procurement workflows to elevate strategic decision-making. This pragmatic evolution offers JAGGAER customers speed and scale they can trust.
While previous releases delivered self-service help, knowledge retrieval, and the ability to trigger workflows using natural language, JAGGAER is taking AI capabilities a step further. Beginning this fall, JAI will offer the full orchestration of intelligent features by developing agent orchestrators to handle tasks like forecasting, spend management, cash flow management, contract management, and RFx automation, into a unified, conversational, and outcome-driven experience.
JAI has been designed to revolutionize how users engage, decide, and deliver outcomes. While to date AI agents have been mainly able to execute tasks such as PO match and supplier outreach end-to-end, JAI is able to orchestrate those agents in copilot mode with its human users, toward a business goal. JAI thus is a trusted digital advisor that coordinates across domain agents—be it sourcing, contracting, or category strategy.
The JAGGAER AI roadmap sees JAI evolve into an autopilot, enabling truly autonomous procurement thanks to their ability to execute adaptive as well as deterministic workflows independently, while users act as high-level overseers and decision-makers.
'Today, we're not launching a feature—we're activating the intelligence foundation for JAGGAER's future', says Jon Lawrence, Chief Product Officer at JAGGAER. 'This isn't about adding AI to procurement. It's about transforming procurement into an intelligent system—one that learns, adapts, and gets better with every decision. JAI is how we'll scale expertise, accelerate outcomes, and unlock a new era of value for our customers.'
Customers are invited to reach out JAGGAER to be part of this revolution and join the Early Access program for co-innovation.

OPEC lifts 2026 oil demand view and trims supply growth from rivals
OPEC on Tuesday raised its forecast for global oil demand next year and trimmed its forecast for growth in supply from the United States and other producers outside the wider OPEC+ group, pointing to a tighter market outlook. World oil demand will rise by 1.38 million barrels per day in 2026, the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries said in a monthly report, up 100,000 bpd from the previous forecast. This year's expectation was left unchanged. Oil supply from countries outside the Declaration of Cooperation - the formal name for OPEC+ - will rise by about 630,000 barrels per day in 2026, OPEC said, down from last month's forecast of 730,000 bpd. The outlook for higher demand and a drop in supply growth from outside OPEC+, which groups OPEC with Russia and other allies, would make it easier for OPEC+ to proceed with its plan to pump more barrels to regain market share after years of cuts aimed at supporting the market. The report also showed that in July, OPEC+ raised crude output by 335,000 bpd, a further increase reflecting its decisions this year to increase output quotas. ( Editing by Kirsten Donovan)
