Sema4.ai’s autonomous agent building platform gets simpler to use, adds deeper business context and more
Sema4.ai Inc. a startup that provides tools for building and managing artificial intelligence agents, has announced a massive revamp of its platform, with big changes coming to every layer of the agent development stack.
The refreshed platform will impact and improve everything from the way agents are built to how they capture and understand business context, and the way they’re deployed within customer’s computing environments.
Sema4 first started getting attention last year when it raised $25 million in a Series A round of funding. It was founded by its Chief Executive Rob Bearden, who once held the same role at big data company Cloudera Inc., and offers a platform that enables non-technical workers to create AI agents with natural language prompts. Users can build the agents they need and then set them to work on tasks such as extracting information from documents. The agents can also use external software applications through a set of integrations known as “Actions.”
Users create their AI agents using an interface called the Work Room, which provides access to all of the AI features their agents need, while a second tool known as the Control Room enables administrators to monitor those agents.
