Salesforce has given its AI a body. Meet Henry, a humanoid robot powered by the company\u2019s generative AI platform, designed to bring its technology off the screen and into the real world.<\/p>\n
At the Dreamforce conference in San Francisco, Henry interacted with attendees, answering questions and showing how Salesforce\u2019s Agentforce system can take on a physical form. The robot reflects the company\u2019s growing ambition to turn its intelligent agents into real-world assistants that can act, not just analyze.<\/p>\n
Behind Henry\u2019s friendly exterior runs Agentforce 360<\/a>, Salesforce\u2019s latest AI engine built to turn digital copilots into autonomous workers. What usually lives in dashboards and CRMs now powers a robot on the floor: one that can meet people, respond in real time, and bring Salesforce\u2019s cloud intelligence into motion.<\/p>\n Agentforce connects data, humans, and AI under one framework, allowing intelligent agents to act across departments with built-in oversight. Its low-code Agentforce Builder lets companies design custom AI agents<\/a>, while Agent Script defines the rules and safety checks that keep them predictable and compliant.<\/p>\n Henry takes that intelligence off the screen. Built to operate independently or under supervision, the robot represents Salesforce\u2019s vision of the \u201cagentic enterprise<\/a>\u201d, where AI doesn\u2019t replace people but works alongside them, tackling physical tasks just as seamlessly as digital ones.<\/p>\n Salesforce isn\u2019t alone in bringing AI into the physical world. Across industries, machines that think, plan, and move are slipping into everyday workflows, from warehouses to front desks.<\/p>\n DoorDash has teamed up with Serve Robotics<\/a> to deploy sidewalk delivery bots in major US cities, expanding beyond its human couriers to automate short-distance orders. Amazon now operates more than a million warehouse robots, using its DeepFleet AI to optimize how goods travel from shelf to doorstep.<\/p>\n Even Google is teaching robots to reason<\/a>. Its new Gemini Robotics 1.5 models combine vision, language, and motion planning so machines can explain their steps before acting, folding towels or loading dishes with deliberate care instead of blind obedience.<\/p>\n And then there\u2019s Figure 03, the first humanoid from Figure AI<\/a> designed for mass production, built with soft fabric panels and a vision-language-action brain called Helix. It\u2019s learning new household tasks from just hours of human video.\u00a0<\/p>\n This kind of progress makes the leap from chatbot to coworker feel inevitable.<\/p>\n The same ambition that brought Henry to Dreamforce is now shaping Salesforce\u2019s hometown. The company is investing $15 billion over five years<\/a> to turn San Francisco into the hub of its AI operations, home to a new AI Incubator Hub and 2,000 new hires focused on building and deploying intelligent agents.<\/p>\n It\u2019s a long-term bet on the same AI foundation that powers Henry. More than 1,000 companies are already deploying Salesforce\u2019s systems in production, showing that the agentic enterprise is moving from concept to reality.<\/p>\n If Salesforce\u2019s vision holds, the next generation of enterprise work won\u2019t happen behind a monitor. It\u2019ll stand beside us. A partner with a voice and a purpose.<\/p>\n The wave of AI innovation shows no sign of slowing.
