Knowledge Communication enhances its AI Agent Studio with API Integration for connecting to existing systems

Knowledge Communication Inc. (Headquarters: Ichikawa, Chiba; CEO: Akira Okusawa), a company specializing in cloud and generative AI implementation support, announced today the addition of a new 'API Integration' feature to its 'Narekomu AI Agent Studio,' an AI agent construction tool designed for non-engineers. This new function enables linkage with external web APIs.

While business agents using generative AI are being adopted for various tasks like utilizing internal documents and creating routine reports, there has been a persistent challenge. Needs such as referencing or updating customer and project data from core systems and SaaS, or integrating with existing business systems for approval flows and ticket creation, traditionally required custom scripting or middleware development, making it difficult for non-engineer-led teams to manage.

The newly added API integration allows users to embed HTTP-based API calls into an agent's workflow simply through screen-based operations. This facilitates easier connection between no-code-built agents and both internal and external systems that expose APIs.

Key Features of 'API Integration'

[1] Expanded Agent Processing Scope: Enables agents to perform API calls to retrieve, register, or update data from external systems during their process flow. This allows for the design of more advanced business automation that goes beyond simple internal knowledge retrieval.

[2] No-Code UI for Configuration: Integration settings can be configured directly within the 'Agent Studio' interface, without the need for dedicated code development. This allows business departments and IT/development teams to collaborate and quickly test integration patterns tailored to their requirements.

[3] Enterprise-Focused Security: The tool is designed with corporate use in mind, featuring security measures such as a default setting that prevents generative AI from retraining on user data. API integration is intended to be used in a way that aligns with existing authentication and network policies.

[4] Extensibility as part of the 'Narekomu AI Platform': This feature is an update that expands the utility of AI agents as part of the company's suite of AI platform products. Continuous functional enhancements are planned for the future.

'Narekomu AI Agent Studio' is a corporate service featuring an intuitive drag-and-drop UI, diverse business agents, purpose-specific templates, and enterprise-grade security design.
