Build Agents, Automate Workflows, and Unlock Your Content—All in One Platform

88% of organizations are running AI in at least one workflow, yet nearly two-thirds report more rework than savings. The model is rarely the bottleneck. Everyone has access to the same frontier models now. The difference is what sits underneath: content that's unstructured, ungoverned, and disconnected from the workflows that need it.

Fixing the content problem usually means giving AI broad access to content, and that's where governance breaks down. Opening everything up to make AI useful shouldn't mean losing control of sensitive data.

At Egnyte, we've spent years building the foundation that makes AI work: intelligence native to where your content lives. Today, we're taking a significant step forward in that journey with four new features: 

  • Bulk Extraction
  • Agent Builder
  • Agent Marketplace
  • Visual Workflow Builder

Governing the secure AI experience is AI Safeguards, our enterprise-grade layer that keeps every AI interaction controlled, auditable, and safe.

Bulk Extraction: Make Your Content Work for You

Most enterprise content sits idle. More than 80% of it is unstructured: Your contracts, submittals, financial reports, and scanned forms have no metadata AI can use to find, filter, or act on them at scale. AI can read any one of those documents. It can't work across fifty thousand of them. The traditional fix is manual tagging, and it doesn't scale—it's slow, inconsistent, and every untagged file widens the gaps in audit readiness, AI accuracy, and governance.

Bulk Extraction changes that. Define what to extract, scope it to the right content types, and it does the rest, routing each file to the proper engine automatically: OCR for scanned PDFs, speech-to-text for recordings, AI clause analysis for legal documents.  None of this needs to be a daunting process, and you avoid manual intervention and infrastructure overhaul.

Most importantly, it works on your existing content, not just on new uploads. It can structure years of archived contracts and legacy documents immediately.

Agent Builder: Build Production-Grade AI Agents in Minutes

Most AI initiatives that involve agents stall because building effective agents has looked like a developer’s job. All-new Agent Builder changes that: Describe what you need in plain English and go. Pick your data sources, wire up recommended connectors, and configure everything through an easy-to-follow setup that anyone can tackle. The person who knows the workflow builds the agent. No explaining it to engineering.

For more advanced AI adopters, agents can also be built by uploading skill files from the AI tools your team already uses. Every agent operates within your existing permission model, for example:

  • An RFP agent only sees project files
  • An HR agent only sees policy documents the prompting person is allowed to access

Without Agent Builder, an investment analyst spends up to 8 hours synthesizing a 200-page CIM into a deal memo, and deploys a CIM Analysis Agent trained on internal templates. Agent Builder cuts that time significantly, producing a structured draft in minutes. AI Safeguards can lock the content to deal-room content only. Analyst time shifts from synthesis to judgment.

A general contractor managing 500 subcontractor agreements can run Bulk Extraction across all of them in minutes. Every contract is tagged with renewal dates, liability caps, and payment terms that are searchable, AI-ready, and access-controlled. Project managers stop chasing documents and start making decisions.

Agent Marketplace: Pre-Built Agents for You or Your Industry

Starting from scratch is where AI momentum usually stalls. Agent Marketplace solves the cold-start problem with a curated library of pre-built, industry-specific agents ready to deploy the moment you log in. 

AEC teams get agents for submittal review and RFP generation. Financial services teams get agents for diligence and contract risk-flagging. Life sciences teams get agents for standard operating procedure (SOP) review and compliance gap analysis. The best part is these pre-built agents are customizable and editable to suit how you want to use them. Full control always lives with the human.

Visual Workflow Builder

Document-centric workflows are everywhere, almost all of them manual, and most are messy enough that automating them never feels worth the effort. Visual Workflow Builder changes that with a redesigned UI that makes automation easier. 

New conditional logic brings additional power to workflows, and now, agents can be part of the flow as well. Any agent in your library can be invoked directly inside a workflow, or you can run a prompt against your content. For example, a project manager uploads a submittal. A workflow fires instantly, extracting metadata, routing by trade type, flagging spec conflicts, triggering approval, and filing the result automatically. What used to take two days of email chains and multiple manual reminders is now run automatically.

One Platform. One Strategy.

Each of these capabilities is valuable on its own, but they're designed to work together. It starts with extraction, giving your content structure so AI has something reliable to work from. Agents, whether you build them or deploy them from the Agent Marketplace, reason over that structured content and act. Workflows then connect those agents into processes that run end to end, with human checkpoints where you need them. Every capability compounds the one before it.

And it all works because Egnyte is the system of record where content is created, stored, governed, and intelligently acted upon.
