Salesforce Unveils Game-Changing OS for AI Agents

CEO & Founder
June 23, 2025

Salesforce today introduced Agentforce 3, a major update to its digital labor platform designed to provide enterprises with clarity, performance, and trust when scaling AI agents. At the center of this release is the new Command Center, giving organizations real-time visibility into agent behavior, outcomes, and system health. Combined with support for open standards, a refactored infrastructure, and expanded pre-built workflows, Agentforce 3 signals Salesforce’s push to make AI agents fully operational across the enterprise.
Agentforce 3 Goes Live
Command Center Enables Visibility & Optimization -
The new Command Center delivers real-time dashboards showing AI agent health, trends, latency, escalation rates, and cost metrics. Supervisors can drill into agent behavior, receive AI-generated recommendations, and set up alerts to identify issues before they affect performance.Interoperability Through Open Standards
Agentforce 3 introduces native support for Model Context Protocol (MCP), enabling seamless connections to MCP-compliant services—no custom coding required. Plus, AgentExchange now features integrations with toolsets from AWS, Google Cloud, PayPal, Stripe, IBM, and more.Upgraded Infrastructure with Atlas Architecture
The refactored Atlas architecture powers faster, more resilient AI agents across enterprise deployments. The platform now delivers lower latency (down 50% since January 2025), higher accuracy, better availability, and optional LLM hosting such as Anthropic’s Claude Sonnet via Amazon Bedrock.Extensive Pre-Built Agent Capabilities
With over 200 pre-built industry actions—half newly added—Agentforce 3 accelerates time-to-value. Notable early results include Engine reducing case handling by 15%, 1‑800Accountant resolving 70% of tax-season inquiries, and Grupo Globo improving subscriber retention by 22% —highlighting real business impact.New Pricing and Growth Metrics
Salesforce updates its pricing with new per-user models and unlimited employee-action bundles. Agentforce usage has surged 233% in the past six months, while more than 8,000 customers have signed up—signalling widespread adoption.
Industry Impact and Competitive Positioning
The release of Agentforce 3 lands at a critical moment in the AI landscape, where enterprises are shifting from isolated automation experiments to fully integrated AI operations. Salesforce’s move solidifies its ambition to lead in digital labor by not only offering scalable AI agents but also embedding governance, performance, and ecosystem extensibility directly into the platform.
Unlike traditional conversational AI tools that focus on enhancing customer interactions, Agentforce 3 enters a competitive arena where a few major players are racing toward end-to-end AI execution. NICE’s CXone Mpower Agents, for example, have positioned themselves as fulfillment-layer AI, capable of handling service resolution across departments. Meanwhile, Microsoft’s Copilot platform is deeply embedded in productivity suites but less focused on CX-centric workflows. ServiceNow, too, is investing in autonomous agents but remains primarily IT-ops led.
Salesforce differentiates itself by combining observability (via Command Center), interoperability (via Model Context Protocol), and vertical breadth (through AgentExchange) in a single, composable architecture. This positions it not just as a service automation provider but as an AI operations hub—a critical shift as brands move from testing bots to scaling intelligent, accountable agents across customer journeys.
With over 8,000 customers now using Agentforce and a 233% growth rate in usage, Salesforce is signaling its intent to be more than a CRM leader—it aims to define the AI-powered service architecture of the next decade. For CX and ops leaders, that sets a new bar for what digital labor platforms must deliver: transparency, trust, and transformative outcomes.
The CXF Take
Agentforce 3 signals a pivotal moment in enterprise AI—a shift from experimentation to accountable, scalable execution. The introduction of the Command Center gives CX leaders the oversight they’ve needed: real-time visibility into agent actions, health, and cost. Now, AI agents can be optimized live, not just reviewed in post‑mortems.
Supporting MCP and bolstering integrations simplifies building across tech stacks and reinforces best practices for open, governed architectures. That makes it easier to embed agents into workflows—without siloed or bespoke development.
Atlas architecture upgrades help ensure performance meets enterprise expectations, with reliability and low latency essential for real-time interactions. This kind of infrastructure is a must-have, not a nice-to-have, for CX at scale.
Importantly, the demonstrated ROI—quicker resolution times, task offloading, and improved retention—moves this release beyond theoretical potential. Agentforce 3 is positioned as a tool for delivering measurable business outcomes, not just AI experimentation.
For CX teams, the message is clear: Agentforce 3 makes digital workers visible, manageable, and accountable. It's time to shift strategy from “pilot and test” to “plan and operate.” If you're ready to scale CX intelligently, this release makes it possible.
