Agentforce

You already have this.
It's just sitting unused.

Agentforce is a real, paid license on top of Salesforce — and a lot of renewals roll it into the deal without much explanation. It ends up paid for and unused. We'll show you what one working agent looks like in 30 days.

What It Actually Is

An agent that can see your data and take action. Not a chatbot.

Agentforce is an AI agent that lives inside Salesforce. It can look something up, update a record, or kick off a process — the same things a person on your team would do, just faster and without being asked twice.

That's the whole idea. Not "AI that reads your CRM." Not a website widget. An agent with the same access and the same guardrails as everyone else on your team, doing one or two specific jobs well.

It's not: a generic chatbot, a black box, or something that acts on its own without a rule telling it when it's allowed to.
It is: a narrow, accountable piece of automation — scoped to do specific things, on your data, the way you'd have trained a new hire to do them.

Salesforce calls the bigger version of this the "Agentic Enterprise" — agents running across every department, fed by one unified data layer. That's a real thing some companies are building toward. Most mid-market companies aren't close to it, and don't need to be yet. One working agent, doing one job well, is the actual first step — not a full re-architecture.

What this actually looks like

The pattern behind the Derlea build above. Wording below is illustrative, not a real customer's email — the point is the shape of the exchange, not the exact words.

Inbound email
Customer

Hi, I picked up your granola at a farmers market and I'm allergic to tree nuts — the label mentions "may contain" but I can't tell which line. Can you confirm this batch is nut-free?

Agent

Thanks for reaching out — allergen safety isn't something I'll guess on. Could you send the lot code printed on the bottom of the bag? I'll check it against the exact batch record and confirm one way or the other. If I can't find a clean match, I'll route this straight to our team rather than give you a partial answer.

Note the shape: it asks for the one piece of data it actually needs, and it explicitly declines to guess on anything allergen-related — that's a hard rule, not a suggestion the model happens to follow.
Straight Answers
Questions people actually ask
Does this cost extra on top of our Salesforce license?
Yes — it's a separate license on top of your base Salesforce license, not something built in for free. Where it gets confusing is that it commonly gets rolled into renewal negotiations as part of the deal, so a lot of companies are already paying for it and just haven't turned it on. Worth checking exactly what's on your contract before assuming you'd need to buy something new.
What happens when it gives a wrong answer?
On anything that matters — pricing, allergens, account-specific data — it's built to decline and escalate rather than guess. That's a configuration choice, not a hope. See "why most rollouts stall" above for how that actually gets enforced.
Do we need Data Cloud / Data 360 for this?
Not for a narrow pilot. A single-department agent grounded in your existing Salesforce data doesn't need the full data-unification project — that's a later conversation if you decide to scale past one use case.
What happens after the 30-day pilot?
You decide. If it's working, we scope the next use case. If it's not worth expanding, you keep what was built and walk away — there's no bigger contract this is secretly funneling toward.
Where It Actually Fits
Three jobs, not a use-case list

One of these is running in production today. The other two are the same configuration discipline, scoped to where we'd start next.

Live at Derlea Brand Foods

One agent for allergens, recipes, and "where's my return"

Derlea's Amazon launch brought a spike in questions — allergen checks, recipe requests from people who found them through the packaging, product issues, return procedures. The agent handles all of it over email now; live chat is next.

Not a scenario — this is running today. Built and managed personally, start to finish.
Equipment Leasing & Fleet

Warranty answers that can't leak the wrong coverage

The agent only answers from active, valid warranty records — it's structurally unable to surface expired or unrelated coverage, not just told not to.

Built on the same platform behind our 30,000-trailer / 20+ location fleet work.
Healthcare

Nothing happens until identity is verified — as a hard gate

The agent can't book or discuss anything until a verification check passes. Not an instruction it follows — a switch it literally can't get past.

The compliance-first configuration discipline behind the Agentforce Specialist cert.
Why Most Agentforce Rollouts Stall
The fears are legitimate. The fix isn't "trust it more."

"It'll make something up"

The hallucination fear
Values the agent needs to reuse — a fee, a status — get calculated once and stored, not re-guessed every time it's asked.

"It might share something it shouldn't"

The oversharing fear
The agent can't attempt the next step until a verification check passes. A hard gate, not a suggestion it might ignore.

"We don't actually know what it's doing"

The black-box fear
Reviewing where an agent escalates or misfires across hundreds of conversations — not spot-checking one transcript and hoping.
Quick Check

Rough estimate based on typical renewal and usage patterns. A real number takes a 15-minute look at your org.

Before Agentforce, every email — customer service, new leads, all of it — went through our team. Now the agent handles most of that, and routes anything about allergens or product straight to FSQA or the test kitchen instead of piling onto sales. It's like every department got its own EA.

How This Gets Built

We have the certification and the real builds to back it up.

Agentforce work never gets handed to whoever's available. The person who holds the certification and studied the failure modes is the one configuring the agent — every time, including the build running at Derlea right now.

If Agentforce is overkill for where you're at, PURIVO will say so directly instead of scoping a bigger engagement.
