ISG to Study Agentic AI Service Providers
Upcoming ISG Provider Lens® report will evaluate providers enabling enterprises to operationalize and scale agentic AI responsibly
STAMFORD, Conn.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–
Information Services Group (ISG) (Nasdaq: III), a global AI-centered technology research and advisory firm, has launched a research study examining providers that help enterprises achieve scaled, production-grade AI adoption that enables autonomous execution across multiple workflows.
The study results will be published in a comprehensive ISG Provider Lens® report, called Agentic AI Services, scheduled to be released in September 2026. The report will cover companies offering agentic AI development and deployment services.
Enterprise buyers will be able to use information from the report to evaluate their current vendor relationships, potential new engagements and available offerings, while ISG advisors use the information to recommend providers to the firm’s buy-side clients.
Enterprises are incorporating agentic AI into coordinated use cases across customer operations, IT, finance and supply chains. This trend has been made possible by advances that allow agentic models to handle larger context, work across data types and enable multiple agents to operate in coordination. As AI deployment scales, organizations are prioritizing production readiness, with increasing focus on governance, observability, security and integration with existing systems. The growing autonomy of AI agents is creating demand for clear accountability, explainability and human oversight.
“Enterprises seek providers that can deploy and manage agentic AI across distributed environments while ensuring effective governance and integration,” said Namratha Dharshan, chief business leader at ISG. “To meet their needs, providers are strengthening orchestration frameworks and scalable memory architectures so experiments can lead to broad rollouts with measurable outcomes.”
ISG has distributed surveys to approximately 140 agentic AI service providers. Working in collaboration with ISG’s global advisors, the research team will produce one quadrant representing the agentic AI services typical enterprises are buying, based on ISG’s experience working with its clients. The quadrant is:
- Agentic AI Development and Deployment Services, evaluating providers that support the adoption of agents that can autonomously plan, execute and optimize complex multistep tasks. The providers are assessed on their ability to operationalize enterprise-grade agentic AI solutions and deliver production-ready deployments.
The report from the study will cover the global agentic AI services market and examine products and services available globally. ISG analysts Gowtham Kumar Sampath and Hemangi Patel will serve as the authors of the report.
A list of identified providers and vendors and further details on the study are available in this digital brochure. Companies not listed as agentic AI service providers can contact ISG and ask to be included in the study.
All 2026 ISG Provider Lens evaluations feature expanded customer experience (CX) data that measures actual enterprise experience with specific provider services and solutions, based on ISG’s continuous CX research.
