Appsmith Agents 🤖 Arrives April 10

Hold on to your keyboards! On April 10, we’re launching a brand new product to turn AI into the dynamo for enterprise organizations it should be (finally!)

Two big challenges with AI have left companies struggling to get results so far:

1. It doesn’t easily work with their own data.

2. It forces employees to change their workflows to use it.

Appsmith Agents flips the script. It lets companies integrate their own business data from SaaS tools, internal databases, or anywhere else that data is stored. And it integrates with the software you use every day to do your work — right where you use it.

With Appsmith Agents, you can:

• Ask an AI chatbot questions about your company’s private data

• Get answers that draw on data across multiple linked sources

• Launch automated workflows without switching to another browser tab

Register now to join our deep dive that shows it off (or meet us in person at Google Cloud Next). 

All the product features that are fit to print.

With our new Slack and Jira integrations, you can seamlessly connect, query, and manage your team workflows right within Appsmith.

These integrations end the hassle of manual updates and API integrations by letting users directly connect their Slack and Jira accounts to Appsmith. You can easily configure notifications as part of a workflow, streamline team collaboration, and track tickets — without needing complex code or external automation tools.

These integrations are now in beta and will be available soon! Want early access and a chance to share feedback? Fill out this form, and we’ll enable the feature for you!

Now, you can set up workflows that let managers approve or reject items with a single click. This process makes it even easier to add human intervention in otherwise automated processes that need it, like processing refunds. 

To add approvals, simply:

1. Create a new Approval Request query

2. Assign your Approvers (either users or groups)

3. Handle the resolution in workflow code

4. Hit “Deploy”

Whenever the workflow is triggered, assigned approvers get a notification — and one click makes it go away. Built-in integrations with your data sources and SMTP automatically keep everyone in the loop. And the low-code configuration still makes it easy for your development team to build, test, deploy, and iterate workflows to keep your business moving. 

Stay up to date on what’s happening with our community of over 9,000 low-code developers.

Ever wondered what happens when two developers eat weapons-grade hot sauce and try to answer questions about low-code? Only one way to find out. 

Grab a glass of milk 🥛 and watch our own Kevin Blanco and Joseph Petty run the gauntlet of Scoville suffering to find out what happens when coders stop being polite … and start getting REAL.

There's no better way to learn a new platform than by diving in and building a few small projects to test out the entire feature set. So, we created the #30DaysofAppsmith Challenge! Sign up now and get on your way to earning an exclusive swag pack and community badge.

Getting started is easy:

1. Sign up for a free Appsmith account

2. Explore one new topic a day and build a simple demo (here’s a weekly guide for ideas)

3. Share your daily progress on LinkedIn or Twitter/X (and make sure to tag @appsmith or @theappsmith)

That’s it! Keep it up for 30 days and get your free reward. Bonus: Create a blog post or video for the Community Portal and you’ll receive an extra-special surprise gift!

Meet us in Vegas! We’re on site at Booth #2024 throughout Google Cloud Next to catch up with low-code enthusiasts and show off Appsmith Agents, our AI agent platform launching at the event.

We've been cooking up something special at Appsmith: how to make AI work for support, sales, and people teams in a way that's actually useful. Two of our founders — Abhishek and Nikhil — will break down how we tackled these challenges and preview what we believe is the most practical solution out there.
