What are AI agents & plugins?

AI agents are capable of carrying out tasks on behalf of a user. There are thousands of repetitive tasks that you can automate when you build AI agents (see our Plugin Library for inspiration).

To build an AI agent, you need an Reasoning Engine (powered by LLMs) and Actions (which the agent can execute). When building on the Moveworks Platform, you use the Moveworks Reasoning Engine as your LLM, and the Agentic Automation Engine is where you build your Actions (called "Plugins" in our platform).

How do I build plugins?

Plugin Workspace & Agentic Automation Engine

To build plugins for your AI agents, you need an automation platform. Traditional iPaaS and middleware are not meant for building AI agents. They were designed for connecting APIs to other APIs, so they struggle to connect AI agents (which use language) to APIs (which expect well-formed data).

The purpose of the Agentic Automation Engine is to give developers a unified platform that's designed from the core to build these automations. To learn more about the core capabilities that power our Agentic Automation Engine, and how it differs from traditional iPaaS & middleware, read our white paper.

The Plugin Workspace is where you go in Creator Studio to author plugins.

There are three sections in the Plugin Workspace:

Actions- These are simple actions like HTTP requests or Scripts.
Compound Actions - These are combinations of Actions
Plugins - These are the agentic AI automations that are published to users.

Classic Workspaces (Paths, Queries, & Events)

Prior to the release of the Agentic Automation Engine, we introduced our Classic Workspaces: Paths, Queries, and Events, which used traditional iPaaS tools as the automation engine for plugins.

While not as powerful, you can still choose to build with them. To learn more about the Classic Workspaces, please visit our classic pages.
