How Cognizant Scaled Agentic AI Across 350,000 Employees
Most enterprise intranets have many disparate, isolated chatbots representing different departments which can cause confusion for employees on where to get their answers and can result in overloaded support tickets. Cognizant took a different path, transforming its OneCognizant platform into a multi-agent system to help streamline inquiries and deliver more accurate responses faster. In this episode, we unpack how agentification turned a traditional intranet into a unified, conversational decision layer—serving 350,000 employees, reducing support tickets by 50%, and delivering 10M+ agent interactions with 92% positive feedback. Learn how orchestration, governance, and distributed intelligence come together to move from AI agent pilots to real enterprise impact.<br />Guests: <br /><br />Dan Fink, Associate Vice President-Platform Engineering <br />Venkatesh Balaji, Associate Vice President - AVP Enterprise Architecture<br />
