Sema4.ai, the enterprise AI agent company, announced the general availability of its full-stack enterprise AI agent platform.

Backed by $30.5 million from top venture capital firms Benchmark and Mayfield, the platform was developed by Microsoft, AWS, Cloudera, and Robocorp alums to enable enterprises to build, run, and operate AI agents at scale.

Unlike traditional AI tools like co-pilots and chatbots, AI agents leverage large language models (LLMs) to go beyond repetitive tasks - handling complex, knowledge-based workflows. With the unique ability to collaborate, reason, and take action, enterprise AI agents can automate previously manual processes, from invoice processing to regulatory compliance-resulting in unmatched operational efficiency and generating hundreds of millions of value.

"We're seeing a shift in the AI landscape where enterprises need solutions that don't just assist but independently execute critical workflows," said Rob Bearden, Co-Founder and CEO of Sema4.ai. "Our platform is designed to unlock the full potential of AI-driven operations, empowering businesses to operate at new levels of efficiency and agility."

The Killer App of the AI Era

Despite AI adoption growing worldwide, a Gartner survey reveals that only 10% of organizations have fully mature AI deployments. Enterprise AI agents bridge the gap between business expertise and cutting-edge technology, enabling leaders to create agents that not only understand business processes but also take action to transform how work gets done. By automating complex workflows and enabling faster decision-making, these agents drive productivity gains and significantly reduce time to market, allowing businesses to operate with greater agility and efficiency.

Companies like Emerson have experienced these transformative impacts firsthand through their collaboration with Sema4.ai.

"We continuously strive to innovate and enhance operational excellence as well as business partner satisfaction. Our recent collaboration with Sema4.ai led to the development of an AI agent that has significantly streamlined remittance matching for thousands of customer payments," said Paul Ferguson, Vice President of Global Financial Services at Emerson. "We believe that enterprise AI agents are transformative for global business services, driving scalability, efficiency, and productivity to levels previously unattainable."

Similarly, Koch has leveraged enterprise AI agents to unlock efficiencies that enhance both productivity and operational cost-effectiveness.

"Since implementing Sema4.ai's enterprise AI agents, the Koch Ag & Energy team has transformed its invoice reconciliation process," said Koch Chief Technology Officer Matt Hoag. "Koch Ag & Energy previously managed hundreds of complex invoices each month. Now, with Sema4.ai automating much of this work, the team can prioritize resolving critical discrepancies while still maintaining oversight. We've seen promising results, achieving significant savings in both time and costs, and we're excited to scale from proof-of-concept to full production."
