About

IBM Watson Assistant has been rebranded as watsonx Orchestrate. The product is now positioned as an agentic control plane that coordinates AI agents, tools, and workflows across systems. It allows organizations to build, deploy and manage AI agents with centralized visibility, policy enforcement, and performance monitoring. The platform is built to be open, working with existing agents, tools, and systems without requiring rebuilds. It includes features for orchestrating agent ecosystems, building and running AI agents, discovering trusted agents and tools, and controlling and governing every agent. The platform integrates workflows, data, and applications across businesses and can run AI both in cloud and on-premises environments. It supports use cases across customer experience, sales, HR, finance, procurement, development, business operations, and IT operations.
