Salesforce Launches Agentforce 2Dx, Letting Ai Run Autonomously Across Enterprise Systems

Join our daily and weekly newsletters for the latest updates and exclusive content on industry-leading AI coverage. Learn More. Salesforce announced Agentforce 2dx today, a major update to its digital labor platform that enables autonomous AI agents to work proactively behind the scenes across enterprise systems without constant human supervision.The announcement marks a substantial evolution from the company’s previous approach, where agents primarily operated within chat interfaces and required explicit user prompts. The new system aims to embed AI agents that can anticipate needs, monitor data changes, and take action autonomously across any business process.“Companies today have more work than workers, and Agentforce is stepping in to fill the gap,” said Adam Evans, EVP and GM of Salesforce’s AI Platform, in a statement sent to VentureBeat. “By extending digital labor beyond CRM, we’re making it easier than ever for businesses to embed agentic AI into any workflow or application.”Autonomous AI agents now work without human promptingThe most transformative aspect of today’s announcement is the shift from purely reactive AI interactions to proactive agents that can operate autonomously in the background. This change allows companies to deploy AI labor that doesn’t just wait for user commands but actively monitors systems and initiates processes when needed.“What surprised me the most is the pace — the speed of creation and speed of iteration,” said Rob Seaman, SVP and GM of Slack, in a recent interview with VentureBeat
