AI delivers value only when it can rely on solid configuration and high-quality data. In reality, many Salesforce Orgs aren’t ready - poor setup and inconsistent data make it impossible for agents to act effectively, leading to bad outcomes. With the help of Clayton, we’ve built an “AI Health Check” that helps evaluate if a Salesforce Org is truly AI-ready. In this session, we’ll share why AI-readiness matters, common pitfalls we see in the field, and how our framework helps customers unlock the full potential of Agentforce.
