INSIDE THIS EBOOK

The promise of agentic AI is real. So is the failure rate. More than 40% of agentic AI projects will be canceled by 2027, and most failures trace back to the same root cause: AI agents operating without the full enterprise context they need to act reliably. Bad data — siloed, fragmented, and largely unstructured — is the silent killer of AI projects that looked promising on paper.

The fix isn’t a better model. It’s a better foundation. This ebook by author Drew Robb shows developers and technical leaders how to build agentic AI applications that go beyond CRM data to tap the full breadth of enterprise knowledge — and how Salesforce Data 360, Agentforce, and Heroku work together to make that possible. Whether you’re evaluating your AI infrastructure stack or actively building agents for production, this guide gives you the architecture, tools, and practical framework to get there.

In this ebook, you’ll discover:

Why agentic AI projects really fail — and why the data foundation, not the model, is almost always the deciding factor.

How to move beyond CRM data — and give AI agents access to the unstructured enterprise knowledge that makes up 80-90% of your organization’s information.

The RAG advantage — how retrieval-augmented generation resolves the accuracy-versus-latency tradeoff that slows most enterprise AI deployments.

How Heroku collapses integration complexity — turning a 14-step Salesforce integration process into a streamlined developer experience that lets lean teams ship faster.

How Agentforce and Heroku complement each other — and how the combination of Data 360, Agentforce, and Heroku creates a complete stack for building, deploying, and scaling autonomous AI agents across the enterprise.

94% of business leaders feel they aren’t taking full advantage of the information available to them. The developers who close that gap — by building AI agents on a trusted, unified, enterprise-wide data foundation — will be the ones delivering measurable results while others are still troubleshooting hallucinations and cancelling projects.
