How custom Joule agents work?

Custom Joule agents understand context, orchestrate workflows, and request human validation as needed, ensuring execution stays reliable and transparent.

Give agents instant access to the right information with document grounding, leading to more accurate responses.

Agents can reference your existing business documents as trusted knowledge sources. This is powered by Retrieval augmented generation (RAG). So, when a user asks a question, the agent finds and applies the most relevant information to generate a precise answer.

A logistics agent can refer existing shipping contracts to recommend the best carrier for a new delivery request.

Frequently asked questions

Joule Studio is a new SAP Build capability that enables customers and partners to develop AI agents and Joule skills.

A skill executes single, repetitive operations that have predefined input and outputs and do not require reasoning (e.g., retrieving warehouse stock levels).

 

AI agents are more suited for complex, multistep problems that require human-like reasoning, reflection, and adaptability (e.g., predicting inventory shortages and suggesting reordering strategies).

Common use cases include navigation, workflow execution, and decision assistance. Skills can help users navigate to specific information or documentation; collect inputs and complete structured workflows and requirements; and enhance decision-making by providing predefined insights.

Common use cases can involve both complex tasks and enterprise-wide executions.

 

Agents handle complex, multistep workflows that require reasoning, adaptability, and contextual awareness. Unlike deterministic automation tools, agents can dynamically adjust processes based on changing business conditions and evolving data inputs.

 

AI agents also bridge disparate systems and business domains—facilitating automations across an enterprise, breaking operational silos, and connecting fragmented IT landscapes.

The skill builder capability in Joule Studio has been generally available (GA) since July 2025, and the agent builder capability in Joule Studio will be GA in December 2025. Read this blog to learn how to access Joule Studio.
