Samsara Inc. (“Samsara”), the pioneer of the Connected Operations® Platform, today announced the launch of new agentic tools that help teams automate monotonous tasks, reduce manual work, and respond faster across their operations. The new capabilities include a first-of-its-kind Agent Studio designed for physical operations that lets teams leverage pre-configured agents or build their own from scratch. Built on real-world data from millions of connected assets, operations teams can now discover, customize, and deploy AI Agents with Samsara's Agent Studio.

Quick Intel

  • Samsara launches Agent Studio for physical operations with pre-configured and custom AI agents.

  • The platform captured 25 trillion data points across the Samsara Network in 2025 alone.

  • Customers can build custom agents or leverage 15+ pre-built templates across safety and maintenance.

  • Driver wingman agents save 30 minutes in communication time per call.

  • Agent Studio requires no IT or developer experience to build and deploy agents.

  • Customers across transportation, construction, field services, and other industries are already developing agents.

Agent Studio for Physical Operations

The Agent Studio serves as the control center where customers can set up and manage these AI-powered workflows. Tasks like managing paperwork, communicating with drivers, and working with vendors can now be automated with agents in minutes, freeing staff from hours of manual work each week. Customers and partners can build custom agents from scratch or leverage more than 15 pre-built templates across safety and maintenance, all without IT or developer experience. Within the studio, builders can also toggle capabilities on or off, set permissions, monitor usage, and configure settings.

Real-World Impact Across Industries

Customers across industries are already developing agents in Agent Studio to automate workflows that have traditionally required dedicated staff or significant manual effort. A driver wingman deployed at a major food distributor answers parking, weigh-station, policy, and escalation questions based on dynamic location and company data, saving 30 minutes in communication time per call. A daily fleet briefing tool used at a food bank gives ops teams a quick read on fleet status and vehicle inspection report compliance, saving hours of manual work each week tracking resources. An assignment workflow at a field services company automatically identifies when a moving vehicle has an unknown driver and links trucks to staff, reconciling insurance risks and saving the dispatch team radio time.

Leadership Perspective on Automation

Johan Land, Chief Product Officer at Samsara, commented: "Samsara has spent the last 10 years deeply embedded in the world's most complex physical operations, giving us unprecedented visibility into what's happening on the ground. In 2025 alone, we captured 25 trillion data points across the Samsara Network across vehicles, equipment, worksites, and operations. Now, customers can act on this insight by leveraging Samsara's platform to fully automate workflows without extensive IT expertise."

Customer Testimonials on Operational Impact

Derek Champagne, VP of Corporate Security, Asset Management & Housing at Grand Isle Shipyard, shared: "We were spending more than six figures a year on reporting and data compilation — work that's now fully automated. Automation allowed us to reallocate both resources and talent toward higher-value initiatives. The real benefit isn't just efficiency; it's the ability to focus our people on solving bigger problems, driving innovation, and creating value that simply wasn't possible before."

Chris Hammock, Director of Transportation for Graceland Portable Buildings, added: "Agent Studio gives us the ability to look at our own daily processes and build to fix the gaps. We can make small changes ourselves, which may save us hours, instead of entering the IT project queue. Further, agents will help take repetitive follow-up work off our team, speed up how we get status updates, and help us spend more time moving the business forward instead of chasing information."

Customization and Governance

Within Agent Studio, teams can integrate a company's policies and documents as a knowledge base, preview behaviors before deployment, and track outcomes through a performance dashboard. The result is a toolset that fits a specific operation rather than a generic workflow, ensuring that agents are tailored to each organization's unique operational needs.
