Now Assist is ServiceNow's generative AI layer across the Now Platform — ITSM, HR Service Delivery, Customer Service Management, and App Engine. It combines Now LLM (ServiceNow's domain-tuned models), the GenAI Controller (a BYO-LLM abstraction for OpenAI, Anthropic, Azure, Google), and the AI Agents framework introduced in the Xanadu release. Pricing is premium — Now Assist is sold as a per-user add-on to existing ServiceNow SKUs, typically starting around 30% uplift over the base product.
Now Assist brings generative AI into every ServiceNow workflow. In ITSM it summarizes incidents, generates resolution notes, and drafts responses. In HRSD it triages cases and drafts employee replies. In CSM it powers virtual agents with deflection scoring. The GenAI Controller lets enterprises bring their own LLM — critical for regulated industries that require specific providers or regional models.
Gartner's 2026 Magic Quadrant for ITSM Platforms named ServiceNow a Leader for the 11th consecutive year, specifically highlighting Now Assist's ability to cut mean-time-to-resolution. Forrester's 2026 Wave on Enterprise Service Management placed ServiceNow as a Leader with top scores for AI. IDC's 2026 Worldwide ITSM tracker reports 58% of Fortune 1000 ServiceNow customers have activated at least one Now Assist skill.
ServiceNow's 2026 customer data showed an average 30% reduction in case handle time and 52% deflection rate for Now Assist-powered virtual agents.
