Salesforce Just Unveiled AI ‘Digital Teammates’ in Slack — and They’re Coming for Microsoft Copilot

  • Salesforce unveiled Agentforce, a new AI tool in Slack enabling task-specific AI agents to assist companies starting June 12, 2025.
  • This launch responds to challenges with broad AI assistants that struggled with specialized tasks, prompting a shift toward purpose-built agents.
  • Agentforce respects existing user permissions, has shown promising results across early adopters, and reduces workload by answering questions faster within Slack workflows.
  • For example, Formula 1 answered fan questions 80% faster with a first-call resolution above 95%, while OpenTable handled 73% of queries in three weeks.
  • Salesforce’s entry signals growing competition with Microsoft Copilot and ServiceNow in AI assistants, emphasizing specialized digital teammates to augment rather than replace workers.
