AI agents in CRM

CRM platforms are undergoing one of their biggest shifts in years. In 2026, AI agents — intelligent, autonomous tools that analyse data, automate tasks, and make recommendations — are rapidly becoming standard across the CRM landscape. They’re no longer limited to drafting emails or summarising calls; they’re now qualifying leads, forecasting revenue, progressing opportunities, and improving customer experience in real time.
