Out-of-the-Box AI Agents, AI-Assisted Insights and Loyalty Tools: What’s New with SAP Customer Experience in Q4 2025

The recent holiday shopping season signaled a major shift in how people interact with brands, moving from traditional search toward conversational agents that do more than answer questions. These agents anticipate intent and orchestrate entire workflows: retrieving information, summarizing options, taking actions, and closing tasks.

Accelerate growth and deliver winning experiences with SAP CX

This isn’t just a consumer trend; it is reshaping engagement models across industries.

The Q4 2025 SAP Customer Experience (SAP CX) release propels this transformation further with new out-of-the-box agents designed for customer service and the ability to easily build custom agents with Joule Studio. Additionally, AI features like predictive segmentation and AI-assisted reporting expedite planning and decision-making—foundational catalysts for future-ready businesses.

With WalkMe Premium now available across SAP CX applications, teams can upskill and reskill with in-the-moment guidance. And SAP Customer Loyalty Management takes new engagement models to the next level, helping businesses strengthen relationships and drive long-term growth.

Here, explore more of the highlights from the Q4 2025 release.

Better customer engagement with out-of-the box agents and custom tools

With SAP, customer experience applications, data and AI come together as one—powered by SAP Business Technology Platform. Whether it’s resolving an issue or managing inventory, CX applications connected to SAP ERP keep processes running smoothly. AI agents take it further, by reasoning and acting directly in core processes, turning complexity into clarity. One of the most critical areas is in customer support.

  • Digital Service Agent: Deliver instant and accurate self-service by putting knowledge at customers’ fingertips. Deflect common inquiries, resolve complex questions with AI, and escalate seamlessly to human agents when needed—reducing contact center load while improving customer satisfaction.

    Digital Service Agent can be combined with Shopping Agent, creating one conversational AI that handles the entire journey—from product discovery and transaction to post-sales support. Customers can ask questions, get answers, and complete purchases in a single frictionless interaction. Together these agents unlock agentic commerce and intelligent service, which strengthens customer relationships and deliver experiences that truly stand out.

  • Joule Studio, agent builder: Create custom, business-ready AI agents for SAP Customer Experience Cloud applications—fast and without complexity. Joule Studio, a part of SAP Build, gives developers a powerful low-code, no-code environment to create and deploy AI agents and connect them seamlessly to Joule, SAP CX apps and third-party systems. These agents can retrieve information, complete tasks, and run autonomous actions grounded in enterprise data from SAP CX, SAP Knowledge Graph, and non-SAP systems.

    For example, users can build a sales assistant agent that instantly pulls historical purchase records, analyzes buying patterns, and recommends the most relevant products or offers—helping sales teams increase conversion rates and shorten sales cycles. Learn how to activate Joule Studio and start building, testing, and deploying AI agents.

Developer Demo: MCP AI Agents | VS Code, AI Core & MCP | SAP TechEd 2025

See SAP’s dev stack in VS Code with AI Core and MCP – build UI5/CAP apps faster using agentic assistants and SAP-delivered MCP servers.

In this SAP TechEd demo, we bring SAP’s developer experience together in one place – VS Code and SAP Business Application Studio – so you can work end-to-end across UI5, CAP, Fiori, ABAP, and HANA with a consistent, open-source IDE foundation.

You’ll meet Cline, an AI coding assistant powered by SAP AI Core to keep prompts, data, and usage inside the SAP BTP trust boundary. The assistant plans, executes, and fixes tasks while staying compliant and governed for the enterprise.

The star of the show is Model Context Protocol (MCP) support and SAP-delivered MCP servers (e.g., CAP, UI5, Fiori). Agents can consult authoritative documentation, understand your model, and perform actions—like generating a CAP service and a freestyle UI5 app—directly from VS Code. This aligns with SAP’s new agentic capabilities: Joule Studio for custom agents, open interoperability (A2A + MCP), and centralized monitoring so teams can build fast with guardrails.

For architects and developers, the takeaway is clear: SAP’s agentic stack connects your preferred IDE and assistants to governed SAP data and tools, accelerating delivery without compromising clean-core principles.

The Next Wave of Intelligent Applications in SAP Business Data Cloud


New intelligent applications and open ecosystem
partnerships turn insights into action across the enterprise


As enterprises move toward an AI-driven future, the role of data has never been more critical. Yet much of that data remains locked in silos — spread across teams, clouds, and legacy systems.

Deep research AI and role-based assistants, coupled with SAP Business Suite innovations, take efficiency to new heights

This fragmentation creates a “context gap,” where information is technically available but disconnected from the business meaning that makes it actionable. For example, sales and marketing teams may share a common view of pipeline, but without linking it to product feedback or process bottlenecks, AI models trained on that data miss the full business context. The result is inconsistent insights, slower decision-making, and a stalled cycle of AI, data, and applications. 

SAP Business Data Cloud closes this gap. By harmonizing enterprise data wherever it resides and preserving its business context, it provides the foundation for intelligent applications and reliable AI.

At SAP Connect, SAP is bringing this vision to life with the next wave of innovations: SAP Business Data Cloud Intelligent Applications 

Four new intelligent applications in preview

Building on the momentum for intelligent applications established at SAP Sapphire, SAP is now opening a restricted public preview of four intelligent applications designed to transform decision-making across finance, procurement, supply chain, and revenue operations.

This preview offers customers an exclusive opportunity to experience the next wave of innovation in SAP Business Data Cloud before general availability. By participating, you’ll gain early access to Finance Intelligence, Spend Intelligence, Supply Chain Intelligence, and Revenue Intelligence, and provide valuable feedback that will help shape the future of these solutions. 

To request access, please visit the preview link above, select the applications you are most interested in, and our product team will follow up directly to finalize your registration and guide you through getting started.

Finance Intelligence gives CFOs and finance teams real-time AI-powered analysis of liquidity by harmonizing SAP and third-party data and suggesting key actions to implement. Leaders can forecast cash flow instantly as well as detect liquidity risks using AI trained on live receivables and payables with external credit data such as Moody’s for richer customer risk assessment. With Joule and generative AI agents automating routine finance tasks, finance teams can shift their focus from reporting on the past to actively steering the future. 

Spend Intelligence provides organizations with a single, comprehensive view of enriched and classified spend data. Built-in AI and advanced analytics uncover patterns, anomalies, and opportunities for cost savings, while collaborative features connect finance, procurement, HR, and supply chain teams for better alignment. Through native integration with SAP source-to-pay solutions, spend data continuously informs operational workflows, improving decision-making, enhancing control, and strengthening enterprise resilience. 

Supply Chain Intelligence equips operations leaders with the context to make faster, more impactful decisions. By combining SAP data with external signals such as weather, regulatory updates, and market shifts — along with insights from millions of partners in SAP Business Network — businesses can leverage the power of AI to understand and take action on key supply chain issues and drive optimization. This comprehensive intelligence helps anticipate disruptions, evaluate supplier risks, and orchestrate decisions seamlessly from prediction to execution, ensuring more resilient and agile operations. 

Revenue Intelligence transforms fragmented customer touchpoints into unified, actionable insights. By linking individual customer behaviors with enterprise-wide operations, it helps revenue leaders see which accounts to prioritize, when to intervene, and how to optimize customer investments. Unlike CRM-only tools, Revenue Intelligence connects front-office engagement to back-office execution, empowering organizations to maximize growth opportunities and strengthen customer relationships with a complete view of the business context.

SAP Business Data Cloud Connect

Beyond intelligent applications, SAP is strengthening its open data ecosystem with SAP Business Data Cloud Connect, giving customers unprecedented flexibility to work with trusted data wherever it resides. With secure, zero-copy sharing, customers can bring SAP data products directly into their existing data platforms, eliminating duplication, reducing transformation efforts, and extending the reach of SAP’s business data fabric.

The first partners adopting this capability include Databricks (generally available) and Google (now in public preview), enabling real-time, bi-directional access to semantically rich SAP data products in environments customers already use.

With SAP Business Data Cloud Connect for Databricks now generally available, organizations can accelerate analytics and AI initiatives with greater speed, less friction, and full confidence in the integrity of their data.

SAP is committed to rapidly expanding this partner ecosystem so that, no matter where enterprise data resides, customers can connect it with trust, governance, and business context. 

Why it matters

Together, these announcements reflect SAP’s vision for the intelligent enterprise — where applications don’t just analyze, but act. By combining trusted data, open connectivity, and embedded AI, enterprises can shorten decision cycles, reduce integration complexity, and align intelligence directly with business outcomes.

For organizations operating across hybrid environments and complex data landscapes, these innovations make it easier than ever to turn insights into action and deliver measurable impact.

This week at SAP Connect, customers can experience this vision firsthand through live demos, real-world case studies, and discussions with SAP leaders, partners, and peers. It’s an opportunity to see how SAP Business Data Cloud is redefining decision-making today and shaping the future of the intelligent enterprise.
