  • Enhanced AI control and visibility with the new AI Studio to create and control predictive models from one central location.
  • Expanded oversight via the new Robotic Automation Console, which makes it easier to deploy and manage all automation – including attended and unattended robotics – in a single interface.
  • Smarter customer email processing by applying AI to understand the customer's intent and automatically create new cases to be serviced in the appropriate case type.
  • Better integration with third-party DevOps tools such as Jenkins, JFrog, and Selenium via new plug-ins for seamless connections.

This latest release also includes other major Pega Platform capabilities made available earlier this year, including:
