    How Salesforce and Altimetrik Are Bringing AI Agents to Regulated Industries

    Banks don't need more AI demos. They need agents they can actually trust in production. At Dreamforce, Ravit Jain had a chat with Jyoti Chaudhary, Global Head of Salesforce Practice at Altimetrik, to talk about what that takes. A few things that stood out: Altimetrik has a full 360 relationship with Salesforce. They sell to Salesforce, for Salesforce, and with Salesforce, from joint product innovation to services integration. The big theme this year is data first. Automation, semantic layers, agent creation and Salesforce showing up inside Slack and cloud environments all sit on that foundation. For BFSI clients, Altimetrik starts with workshops to set KPIs and a roadmap before any agent goes live. Every agent has to be grounded, monitored, governed, compliant and auditable. In regulated industries that is the price of entry. The use cases are practical. Onboarding, KYC, claims and servicing. The payoff is a full customer view for relationship managers, which means better insight and more cross-sell and upsell opportunities. You can find more of their thinking on the Altimetrik website and LinkedIn page. Thank you Jyoti for the great conversation. hashtag#dreamforce hashtag#salesforce hashtag#altimetrik hashtag#ai hashtag#agenticai hashtag#bfsi hashtag#fintech hashtag#theravitshow

    Why Enterprises Are Struggling With AI: HFS Research and Altimetrik Explain What’s Missing

    Only 17% of enterprise executives say they have clear clarity on their AI strategy!!!! That is from a survey of 500 leaders at Global 2000 companies. I spoke at Dreamforce with David Cushman, Executive Research Leader at HFS Research, and Gurvinder Singh Sahni, CMO at Altimetrik on The Ravit Show, to talk about what that gap actually looks like!!!! What we covered: - The shift at Dreamforce itself. Service providers used to dominate the floor. This year the attention moved to AI labs, AI infrastructure, and the interaction layer. Dario Amodei and Jensen Huang were in the room. - Enterprise leaders are still confused about pricing models, and there is a real distance between where most companies are today and where Salesforce's vision sits. - The legacy problem nobody wants to talk about. If your digital transformation is half finished, you cannot layer advanced AI on top of it. The foundation has to get sorted first. - The theme of this phase is the harness. Control, governance, cost management, protecting enterprise margins. Making sure AI delivers results safely. - Human at the helm, rather than human in the loop. David's point stayed with me. In the loop puts the human under the machine's control. At the helm means the human directs, decides, brings creativity, and stays accountable. Salesforce's responsible AI work uses the same framing. Advice for leaders from both of them: David said leaders have to use these tools themselves, daily. Without hands on experience you cannot see where AI actually fits in your organization. Gurvinder said the same from the practitioner side. Equip your own teams first with ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini. You cannot authentically guide clients on something you have not done yourself. And the goal is augmentation. Efficiency per person, revenue per employee, human capability extended rather than swapped out. Thank you David and Gurvinder for a great conversation. #dreamforce #salesforce #agentforce #altimetrik #hfsresearch #ai #enterpriseai #theravitshow

    How Salesforce and Altimetrik Are Helping Huntington National Bank Scale AI

    DREAMFORCE last week was a blast!!!! Most AI agent projects fail for the same reason. The foundation was not ready. That came through clearly in my Dreamforce conversation with Jyoti Chaudhary, Global Head of Salesforce Practice at Altimetrik, and Jeff Sneeringer, Service Delivery Director at Huntington National Bank. What we covered: - Salesforce is unifying its AI strategy across the ecosystem, pushing AI into Cloud, Slack, and Microsoft Teams so it sits inside the conversations people are already having. - Regulated industries are moving away from custom code. Banks want turnkey configurations they can stand up fast and see value from, for customers and for internal teams. - Salesforce is shifting from a system of engagement and record to a system of action and intelligence. Agentic capabilities, agentic frameworks in Marketing Cloud, and developer efficiency through Cloud Code. - On deployment, Jyoti made the case for a phased approach. Get the data layer, automated workflows, and semantic layer right first. Understand your business processes and KPIs before you build an agentic roadmap. 2 pieces of advice for leaders: Prepare for headless and omnichannel. Surface your tools wherever people work, simplify the workload, and chase ROI over cost savings. Take responsible AI engineering seriously. Your practitioners need to understand compliance, regulation, and what sustainable looks like as this moves fast. Full interview below. Thank you Jyoti and Jeff for a great conversation. #dreamforce #salesforce #agentforce #altimetrik #ai #aiagents #banking #theravitshow

    From AI Pilots to Production: How Salesforce and Altimetrik Are Scaling Agentic AI

    Last week Dreamforce was a blast!!!! 2024 was the year of AI pilots. 2025 was the year agents went into production. 2026 is about scaling them. That framing came up in my Dreamforce conversation with Vala Afshar, Chief Digital Evangelist at Salesforce, and Gurvinder Singh Sahni, CMO at Altimetrik on The Ravit Show. Some numbers from the discussion: Dreamforce 2026 brought 50,000 people in person from 150 countries, with 10 million tuning in for the keynote. The event generated over $100 million for the San Francisco Bay Area economy and supported 60,000 local jobs. Across 400 early adopting companies studied over 15 months, average agent usage grew from 5 to 15, deployment time dropped to under a week, and utilization went up 4x. What stayed with me: Vala called AI the most important technology of our lifetime, the electricity of the 21st century. The pressure on businesses now is to actually become agentic enterprises, not just talk about it. The hard part is what comes next. Going from dozens of agents to hundreds or thousands turns governance, security, compliance, accountability, and trust into the real problem to solve. On keeping up with the pace, the advice was to stay a beginner. Ask questions, be radically transparent, and build a culture where people can experiment without fear of being blamed when something does not work. And none of this happens alone. Strong engineering partnerships and ecosystem collaboration, like the one between Salesforce and Altimetrik, are what make these transformations land. Full interview below. Thank you Vala and Gurvinder for a great conversation. #dreamforce #salesforce #agentforce #altimetrik #ai #aiagents #enterpriseai #theravitshow

    From AI Ambition to Business Outcomes | Emerson & Altimetrik on Enterprise Transformation

    Most enterprises have already spent heavily on Salesforce. The real question now is how to get more value out of it. That was the heart of my conversation at Dreamforce with Bryan Schappell from Emerson and Nripendra Tamang from Altimetrik. We got into what it actually takes to move Salesforce and Agentforce from pilots into production, and where AI is starting to change how companies engage customers and run their operations. A few things worth watching for: - How Emerson's Salesforce journey has evolved, and the business priorities shaping what comes next - Where Agentforce and generative AI can create real impact in their industry, beyond the hype - The capabilities that matter most when taking AI initiatives out of experimentation and into day to day operations - How Altimetrik brings together Salesforce expertise, AI native engineering, industry knowledge, and its partner ecosystem to help enterprises get there. And Bryan's 1 recommendation for business leaders planning the next phase of their Salesforce and AI journey. If you are leading a Salesforce or AI initiative right now, this one is worth your time. Thank you Bryan and Nripendra for a great conversation. #dreamforce #salesforce #agentforce #altimetrik #emerson #ai #enterprise #theravitshow

    How Salesforce Is Building the AI-Ready Data Foundation for Agentforce

    Most enterprises are not held back by AI models. They are held back by their data. That was the focus of my conversation with Savinay Berry, EVP and GM of Data Management, at @Salesforce’s Dreamforce. #AdSavinay also highlighted common data readiness mistakes. We explored what AI-ready data means for Salesforce customers and why enterprises need an AI infrastructure layer built to outlast today’s AI wave. As Savinay put it, “I don't know the agents that our customers are going to create in the future, but I want a canvas, a platform, a harness that I can have which is truly compliant, secure and protected. And there's probably going to be only two or three of them as it happened in case of the cloud.” We closed with an example of AI-ready data driving change at scale. Worth a listen for teams getting started. Thank you, Savinay. Full interview is live. Watch it and tell me what stood out to you. #df26 #salesforce #datacloud #agentforce #datamanagement #aireadydata #data #theravitshow #SalesforcePartner

    How SharkNinja Is Transforming Customer Experience With AI, Salesforce and Agentforce

    AI is moving out of the back office and into the products people use every day. That was the thread running through my conversation with Velia Carboni, CIO of SharkNinja, here at Dreamforce on The Ravit Show. #sponsored SharkNinja is taking AI beyond internal productivity and into its products and customer experiences. That shift changes what a CIO is responsible for. Technology leadership now sits much closer to the customer. We talked about where Salesforce and Agentforce fit into the way SharkNinja connects with its customers. We also got into speed. SharkNinja launches new products across global markets, and technology has to keep pace with that. And of course, what Velia is hearing on the ground at Dreamforce this year. The energy here is unreal. Conversations like this one are exactly why I love being at Dreamforce. Thank you, Velia, for a great conversation. #dreamforce #salesforcepartner #salesforce #agentforce #sharkninja #ai #cio #customerexperience #theravitshow

    What Is CUBIG? The AI-Ready Data Operating Layer

    Most companies don't have a data problem. They have a data readiness problem. They already have plenty of data. What they don't have is data an AI task can actually use. I sat down with Ho Bae, CEO of CUBIG on The Ravit Show, to talk about what it takes to make enterprise data ready for AI. Here are my takeaways: 1. Having data and having AI-ready data are 2 different things. The right information may already be in your systems, but it often needs to be prepared, changed, or validated before AI can use it. 2. "AI-ready" depends on the task. Data isn't ready in general. It's ready for a specific job. 3. Real enterprise data is messy in ways sample data isn't. Circuit IDs, project codes, and node names only make sense because of how they connect inside the business. 4. Removing too much data can break the AI. If you strip out the relationships, the model can't tell that 2 records belong to the same asset or event. 5. The answer should come back inside the workflow. LLM Capsule sits inside the tools teams already use and returns results with the real business values, ready to act on. 6. You can keep your current model. The model stays your choice. The data layer around it is what changes. 7. Start with 1 blocked AI task, not a product checklist. Know what you want to run, what's stopping it, and what success looks like. Ho also walked through a live demo, showing how 2 network alerts get traced back to the same device without the model ever seeing the original device name. If your AI works on sample data but struggles on real data, this one is worth your time. CUBIG will also be at Oracle AI World 2026 in Las Vegas, October 25 to 28. #data #ai #enterprisedata #dataengineering #genai #llm #cubig #theravitshow
