State of AI Agents

AI agents are starting to show what they can really do. Everyone’s talking about them, but only a small percentage of companies have agents in production. What does it take to get AI agents to work for your business? What are the leading companies doing differently than those that are stagnating?

The 2026 State of AI Agents report shares the latest in enterprise AI, including the most common use cases, database transformation and high priorities like governance and evaluation. See how more than 20,000 organizations worldwide on the Data Intelligence Platform — including over 60% of the Fortune 500 — are building their agent strategies.
