AMSTERDAM, April 2026 - The Agentics Co., an enterprise AI transformation firm headquartered in Amsterdam, today announced the public launch of Cortex, an enterprise AI agent platform purpose-built to deploy governed autonomous agents across Finance, Procurement, Sales, HR, Compliance, and Operations.

Cortex is available immediately with three commercial tiers i.e. Validate, Scale, and Enterprise, and is already running in production across more than 30 enterprise environments spanning 12 industries and 6 continents.

Cortex addresses a structural gap that has persisted through the enterprise AI investment cycle: organisations have adopted AI assistants and copilots at scale, but the operational workflows driving business outcomes e.g. invoice matching, compliance monitoring, procurement approvals, supplier risk tracking, continue to run on manual effort. Cortex closes that gap by deploying AI agents that execute autonomously across connected enterprise systems, not just assist individual users.

"Enterprise AI has a production problem, not an adoption problem. Boards have approved the budgets. Copilots have been deployed. And the invoices are still being matched by hand. Cortex is the execution layer that the enterprise AI stack has been missing…governed, auditable, and built to run the operations that actually drive the P&L." 

PRODUCT OVERVIEW

Cortex is built on a proprietary three-layer architecture designed to separate it from every competing enterprise AI platform.

Context Engine (Layer 01): Ingests structured and unstructured data from 300+ enterprise applications such as ERPs, CRMs, HRIS systems, ticketing platforms, document repositories, and builds a continuously updated live semantic graph of the organisation's people, processes, contracts, and transactions. Agents operate on current operational reality, not stale training data.

Semantic Layer (Layer 02): Maps relational intelligence across enterprise data, connecting vendors to contracts, deals to contacts, tickets to products, employees to projects. Agents powered by the Semantic Layer reason with the full operational picture, not isolated data points or document fragments.

Action Engine (Layer 03): Executes multi-step workflows across systems with role-based permission enforcement at every step. Routes approvals, updates records, generates documents, and escalates exceptions to human reviewers with complete, immutable audit trails on every action. 1M+ events processed daily at a sub-5-second SLA.

PLATFORM CAPABILITIES AT LAUNCH

Cortex launches with five agent types, five capability pillars, and a full enterprise infrastructure layer:

•      Five Agent Types: Conversational AI Agents, Voice AI (sub-200ms latency, 40+ languages), Autonomous AI Agents (24/7, event-driven), Document AI Agents (90+ formats, confidence scoring), and Agentic Business Intelligence

•      Five Capability Pillars: Agent Builder (no-code), Workflow Builder (visual canvas), Deep Research (multi-source intelligence), Canvas (collaborative AI workspace), and Context Engine

•      Enterprise Infrastructure: Agent Orchestration, Agent Governance, AI Gateway (200+ models, intelligent routing), Model Hub, and on-premise / air-gapped deployment with self-hosted LLMs

•      Integrations: 300+ pre-built connectors including SAP, Salesforce, Oracle, Microsoft Dynamics, NetSuite, Workday, ServiceNow, HubSpot, Zendesk, Jira, Slack, Microsoft 365, and Google Workspace

EU-NATIVE ARCHITECTURE: A STRUCTURAL DIFFERENTIATOR

Cortex is distinguished from competing enterprise AI platforms by its EU-native design. While most enterprise AI platforms operating in Europe are US-headquartered products adapted for EU compliance requirements, Cortex was architecturally designed from the outset for the governance bar that European enterprise procurement teams require.

EU-NATIVE BY DESIGN

Cortex is Amsterdam-headquartered, GDPR-compliant by architecture, and certified under SOC 2 Type II, GDPR, HIPAA, and ISO 27001. It supports EU data residency controls, air-gapped deployment with self-hosted LLMs, and CSRD/ESRS evidence frameworks for enterprises navigating the EU Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive and the EU AI Act. Data residency and air-gapped deployment are architectural decisions, not compliance additions.

For European enterprises navigating GDPR, CSRD, the EU AI Act, and sector-specific regulatory requirements, Cortex provides an alternative to US platforms that have been retrofitted for EU compliance. All deployment options i.e. cloud (EU region by default), on-premise, air-gapped, and hybrid, are supported with identical functionality and governance.

"European enterprises face a governance bar that US-built platforms were not designed to clear. Cortex was. Not because we added compliance features but because we built the platform for this regulatory environment from the ground up." 

PRODUCTION RESULTS

Cortex enters the market as a production-proven platform, not a product moving from proof-of-concept to general availability. Current production deployments include:

•  Finance teams processing invoices 12x faster, with late-payment penalties eliminated within the first quarter of deployment

•  HR onboarding workflows completing 65% faster, with zero manual handoffs between enterprise systems

•  Customer support operations across 700+ locations reducing average handle time from 14 minutes to 3 minutes

•  Compliance monitoring running continuously, surfacing regulatory gaps before audits rather than during them

•  ESG evidence aggregation for CSRD/ESRS reporting, replacing quarterly manual data collection with continuous automated pipelines

Cortex deployments move from proof-of-concept to production in 4–8 weeks. Fortune 500 references are available across manufacturing, healthcare, logistics, retail, and financial services.

AVAILABILITY AND PRICING

Cortex is available immediately in three commercial tiers, each including the Agentics Validation-First delivery framework:

•      Validate: An 8-week proof-of-value engagement scoped to a specific enterprise workflow. Includes Context Engine and Action Engine setup, up to five integrations, ROI projections within 48 hours, and the full Agentics delivery team.

•      Scale: Full production deployment across up to five agent domains, unlimited integrations, Agent Builder and Workflow Builder access, a dedicated delivery partner, and a 6-month ROI commitment.

•      Enterprise: Unlimited agent domains, custom integrations and legacy system support, air-gapped or on-premise deployment with self-hosted LLMs, custom SLAs, 99.9% uptime guarantee, and a 12-month ROI commitment.

All Cortex plans include the Agentics Validation-First delivery layer, a structured deployment framework with committed ROI milestones. Agentics does not provide platform access and leave deployment to the client; the delivery layer is included in every commercial tier.
