What is Salesforce Agentforce?

Agentforce is Salesforce's AI agent platform that enables autonomous agents to handle tasks across the CRM. On ibl.ai, Agentforce agents connect to your campus memory layer to handle enrollment inquiries, advancement outreach, student success interventions, and operational tasks—all within your existing Salesforce environment.

How does Agentforce differ from Salesforce Einstein?

Einstein provides AI features within Salesforce (predictions, recommendations). Agentforce creates autonomous agents that can execute multi-step workflows, access external data, and take actions. Think of Einstein as insights, Agentforce as action.

What higher education use cases work well with Agentforce?

Common use cases include: prospective student inquiry handling, application status updates, financial aid document collection, alumni giving outreach, event registration, and student support ticket triage. Any process currently handled by forms and manual follow-up is a candidate.

Does Agentforce work with Education Cloud?

Yes. Agentforce integrates natively with Salesforce Education Cloud, accessing student records, recruitment data, case management, and success plans. ibl.ai extends this with connections to your SIS, LMS, and other campus systems for complete context.

How do we maintain control over what agents can do?

Agents operate within defined guardrails—specific actions they can take, data they can access, and escalation paths when human intervention is needed. All agent actions are logged, and you control permissions through both Salesforce and ibl.ai policy layers.
