Domo announces Agent Catalyst for creating autonomous AI agents

Domo has announced the rollout of Agent Catalyst, a tool designed to facilitate the creation of autonomous Artificial Intelligence (AI) agents that can automate complex business processes. This announcement took place at Domopalooza 2025. Built on Domo's secure AI platform, Agent Catalyst enables organizations to streamline workflows while ensuring compliance with governance standards. The tool leverages large language models to allow AI agents to operate independently, adapting their functions based on provided data and tools. The goal is to improve operational efficiency and decision-making by reducing the reliance on manual processes. In a statement, Josh James, founder and CEO of Domo, described Agent Catalyst as a tool for businesses of all sizes that can help them navigate AI's evolution in operations. The framework allows users to create agents through a structured four-step process of selecting a language model, providing instructions, connecting to knowledge sources, and assigning tools necessary for task execution. The capabilities included in Agent Catalyst encompass DomoGPT, a secure language model that acts as the cognitive engine for the agents, and new features aimed at assisting users in managing unstructured data effectively. Other enhancements include tools for defining data relationships to improve agents' contextual understanding and upcoming features for building custom AI assistants more efficiently. Domo reported positive feedback from industry partners who have already started utilizing Agent Catalyst, praising its low-code, no-code approach that allows organizations to deploy AI solutions rapidly without extensive development resources. Experts indicate that the demand for secure and efficient AI solutions continues to rise, with Domo addressing these requirements through its established data governance protocols. Domo is planning to extend these AI capabilities across its platform with features designed to facilitate data transformation and automated insights, which are expected to provide businesses with more granular control over their operations.
