ServiceNow launch AI Control Tower to optimise AI investments and deliver seamless and responsible integration

Tahawul Tech06-05-2025
Knowledge 25: ServiceNow have launched their AI Control Tower, a centralised command centre designed to govern, manage, secure and realise value from any AI agent, model and workflow.
The announcement was made during their annual customer partner event, Knowledge 25, which kicked off at The Venetian Hotel in Las Vegas earlier this morning.
The AI Control Tower optimizes AI investments and ensures seamless, responsible integration into customers' enterprise strategies.
In addition to AI Control Tower, ServiceNow also introduced AI Agent Fabric, a solution that delivers new levels of agent to-agent and multi-model communication and collaboration.
ServiceNow partners, including Accenture, Adobe, Box, Cisco, Google Cloud, IBM, Jit, Microsoft, Moonhub, RADCOM, UKG, and Zoom are among those to be offering the first AI Agent Fabric integrations for seamless, wall to wall enterprise workflows across third-party agents.
According to Gartner®, 'By 2028, enterprises using AI governance platforms will achieve 30% higher customer trust ratings and 25% better regulatory compliance scores than their competitors,' signalling an increased benefit to AI orchestration at the enterprise level.
ServiceNow AI Control Tower is AI management at unprecedented scale – allowing customers to see all their AI agents in action, understand what they're working on, govern and track their impact, mitigate risk, keep them secure, and assign human managers to oversee their work.
With the addition of AI Agent Fabric, organizations can seamlessly connect AI agents, orchestrators, and enterprise applications – built by ServiceNow or third-parties.
'As AI agents proliferate across enterprises, coordinating their work becomes as critical and complex as leading human employees, and companies need new tools to direct this new digital workforce,' said Amit Zavery, president, chief product officer, and chief operating officer at ServiceNow.
'With AI Control Tower, businesses can oversee AI workforces in the same way the human workforce is managed, ensuring each agent is aligned, coordinated, optimized, and delivering impact at scale. Only ServiceNow unites powerful workflows, industry-leading governance, and seamless orchestration with agentic AI excellence, enabling customers to scale AI and drive real, measurable outcomes.'
Embedded across all workflows in the ServiceNow AI Platform, and building on the recently announced AI Agent Orchestrator, the AI Control Tower centralizes strategy, governance, performance, and management across the entire AI ecosystem while driving enterprise-grade compliance and accountability.
With the AI Control Tower customers achieve:
Enterprise-wide AI visibility: Monitor and manage every AI agent, model, and workflow— native or third-party—in one place, applying consistent policies across the enterprise.
Embedded compliance and AI governance: Proactively manage risk, including security and privacy, and monitor compliance across the AI lifecycle with comprehensive, integrated governance, risk, and compliance (GRC) capabilities.
End-to-end lifecycle management of agentic operations: From ideation to deployment to optimization, AI Control Tower enables contextual decision-making and helps enforce guardrails across the enterprise.
Real-time reporting: Dynamic dashboards provide operational insight and validate AI performance against key business outcomes like productivity and revenue impact so AI agents can then take action on it.
Improved alignment between AI and business strategy: AI Control Tower helps customers better match their AI initiatives with overall enterprise business and tech goals, making sure they deliver real value.
With AI solutions and services expected to generate a global cumulative impact of $22.3 trillion by 2030, the volume of AI assets organizations must manage will be unprecedented,' said Ritu Jyoti, group vice president/general manager for Worldwide AI and Data Market Research and Advisory Services at IDC.
'The organizations that will see the greatest return on their AI investments will be those that utilize a centralized solution to govern, manage, and track their evolving agentic AI landscape, fostering trust and reinforcing the reliability and dependability of AI systems.'
Expanding orchestration with AI Agent Fabric
ServiceNow also debuted AI Agent Fabric, which acts as the communication backbone for entire AI ecosystems — enabling native collaboration between agentic systems. Unlike traditional AI solutions, AI Agent Fabric supports AI agent-to-AI agent, AI agent-to-tool, or even agentic system-to-agentic system, all using common protocols like Model Context Protocol (MCP) and Agent2Agent protocol (A2A).
This allows both ServiceNow and third-party AI agents, tools, and systems to dynamically exchange information, coordinate tasks, and take action in
real time.
With AI Agent Fabric, ServiceNow's thousands of AI agents can work side-by-side with third-party agents to share context, coordinate actions, and drive outcomes, operating as part of a coordinated, intelligent system.
Together with customers' own domain-specific agents created through ServiceNow AI Agent Studio, plus current and future AI Agent Fabric integrations from Accenture, Adobe, Box, Cisco, Google Cloud, IBM, Jit, Microsoft, Moonhub, RADCOM, UKG, and Zoom, organizations can unlock new levels of collaboration and enable AI systems to work together for AI-powered workflow optimization across a broad range of platforms and services.
These new integrations expand on the ServiceNow Marketplace, where ServiceNow's industry leading partner ecosystem can contribute to the thousands of AI agents already available from ServiceNow by building their own on the ServiceNow AI Platform.
AI Agent Fabric complements the recently announced ServiceNow Workflow Data Fabric, a breakthrough integrated data layer that allows customers to connect, understand, and act on structured, semi-structured, unstructured, and streaming data across the enterprise, inside and outside of ServiceNow.
By offering both Workflow Data Fabric and AI Agent Fabric, ServiceNow further completes its vision of bringing AI, data, and workflows together for customers to help them supercharge their entire business with intelligently orchestrated agentic AI.

Trump's One Big Beautiful Bill explained

Image: Getty Images In July 2025, the US Congress enacted the sweeping One Big Beautiful Bill (OBBB): a landmark legislative overhaul combining permanent extensions of Trump-era tax cuts for individuals and businesses with major spending cuts to welfare programmes and a hefty increase in defense and border security outlays. The bill narrowly cleared its final hurdle in the House of Representatives, positioning it to become law following his signature on July 4. According to the add approximately $3.3–$ 3.4 trillion to federal deficits over the next decade and leave 11–12 million Americans without Medicaid coverage, a claim strongly disputed by the White House. 'President Trump's One Big, Beautiful Bill delivers on the commonsense agenda that nearly 80 million Americans voted for – the largest middle-class tax cut in history, permanent border security, massive military funding, and restoring fiscal sanity. The pro-growth policies within this historic legislation are going to fuel an economic boom like we've never seen before. President Trump looks forward to signing the One Big, Beautiful Bill into law to officially usher in the Golden Age of America,' the VICTORY: The One Big Beautiful Bill Passes U.S. Congress, Heads to President Trump's Desk 🇺🇸🎉 — The White House (@WhiteHouse) From a B2B perspective, this bill sends strong signals: a brighter corporate tax landscape and investment clarity, contrasted with harsh reductions in healthcare and social safety nets. It deliberately reshapes incentives in sectors like renewable energy, defense, manufacturing, and infrastructure, offering strategic opportunities for businesses and investors. With permanent 2017 tax cuts, expanded bonuses, and full 100% expensing, the bill aims to stimulate corporate investment. Yet it simultaneously reverses many climate-related credits, potentially chilling solar and wind projects . Defense and security sectors, by contrast, are set to benefit from a . Lost in the US-centric coverage, however, are ripple effects in the GCC region, from fiscal and investment flows to energy markets and defense partnerships. Gulf sovereign wealth funds with heavy US bond and equity exposure may see altered yields and investment valuations. A return to robust US fossil fuel production and weaker renewables support could benefit GCC oil exporters, even as geopolitical and military collaboration dynamics evolve. Sector-Wise Breakdown Tax & Corporate Sector Permanent tax cuts : Lowers corporate and individual tax rates, increases Business certainty : Enhanced planning through long-term tax predictability, including 100% Section 179 expensing. Trade & remittance levy : Introduces a 1% tax on remittances—raising potential issues for global fund flows . Healthcare & Welfare Drastic Medicaid/SNAP cuts : Deep reductions could strip about 10–11 million low-income Americans of benefits. Eligibility changes : Programmes now include stricter work mandates and state cost-sharing, potentially straining hospital systems. Defense & Border Security Defense boost : +$150 billion for military, including 'Golden Dome' missile defense, drones, and nuclear upgrades. Immigration enforcement : +$150 billion for border control, ICE expansion, detention capacity for up to 1 million deportees annually. Energy & Environment Clean energy rollback : Repeals IRA tax credits, halts renewables momentum, and favors fossil fuels, nuclear, and gas sectors . Energy dominance push : Positions US around nuclear and gas reliability; delays investment in solar and wind . Infrastructure & Tech ATC modernisation : . Spectrum & R&D incentives : 600 MHz spectrum auction planned by 2034; R&D expensing restored to spur innovation . Agriculture & Rural Support for rural hospitals : $50 billion allocated to support struggling healthcare systems in non-urban areas . Agricultural enhancements : Elevated crop insurance, price supports, and disaster relief totalling approximately $60 billion . GCC Impact Snapshot Sovereign wealth & portfolio returns: The tax cuts and increased US debt may drive higher bond yields, squeezing GCC external debt issuances. A new remittance tax could also slightly dent returns for GCC-based investors in the US. Energy market ripples: Rollbacks in clean energy tilt US fuel demands back to oil and gas, supporting GCC hydrocarbon export prices in the short to mid-term . Defense & security ties: Expanded US defense budgets open avenues for GCC collaboration on advanced military and border technologies. Investment climate: Tax clarity may attract more GCC foreign direct investment into US infrastructure and technology sectors, though uncertainty in welfare and fiscal policy might temper risk appetite. Trump's 'One Big Beautiful Bill' epitomises a high-stakes gamble: it locks in permanent tax relief and certainty for corporations and the wealthy, while significantly slashing social safety nets, primarily Medicaid, potentially leaving nearly 12 million Americans uninsured. Although fossil fuel industries benefit from revived incentives, the rollback of clean‑energy credits casts a shadow over green energy's momentum, even as targeted investments in technology, defense, and research & development open long‑term growth pathways, assuming fiscal discipline and stable global trade persist.

Gold poised for weekly gain on dollar weakness, safe-haven demand

Gold prices rebounded on Friday and were heading for a weekly gain, helped by a retreat in the U.S. dollar and safe-haven inflows as U.S. President Donald Trump's deadline for trade deals loomed. Spot gold was up 0.3% to $3,334.47 per ounce, as of 1002 GMT. The precious metal is up about 1.9% this week. U.S. gold futures gained 0.1% to $3,344.70. The dollar index slipped 0.2% and was on track for a second week of decline, making gold less expensive for other currency holders. "The apprehension about the fiscal situation in the U.S. (after Trump's sweeping tax-cut bill passed Congress) and the lingering uncertainty over the approaching July 9 deadline for the tariff issue has boosted safe-haven demand," said Ricardo Evangelista, senior analyst at brokerage firm ActivTrades. Trump announced that Washington will start sending letters to countries on Friday, marking a shift from earlier plans for individual trade deals. On April 2, he announced reciprocal tariffs of 10%-50%, but later reduced most to 10% until July 9 to allow for negotiations. Meanwhile, Trump's tax-cut legislation cleared its final hurdle in Congress on Thursday, making his 2017 cuts permanent, funding his immigration crackdown, and adding new tax breaks promised during Trump's 2024 campaign. Data showed U.S. job growth was unexpectedly solid in June, but nearly half of the increase in nonfarm payrolls came from the government sector, with private industry gains the smallest in eight months as businesses battled rising economic headwinds. "The latest U.S. payroll data supports the case of a slowdown of the economy, but no standstill, slowing the pressure on the Fed to cut interest rates anytime soon," said UBS commodity analyst Giovanni Staunovo. Elsewhere, spot silver edged 0.1% lower to $36.78 per ounce and palladium eased 0.3% to $1,133.21. Platinum rose 0.5% to $1,374.21 per ounce and was heading for its fifth straight week of gains.
