The Sustainability Disclosure Agent helps with compliance with ever-changing global sustainability standards such as ESRS and ISSB through drafting disclosures, gap analysis and creating compliance scorecards. Together with the above-mentioned AI agents, Workiva Knowledge works as an enterprise-level intelligence layer that is constantly learning from the organization’s data, prior filings, internal policies, and documentation. “Finance, sustainability, risk, and compliance teams are moving from execution to orchestration as AI agents take on more of the work, and we’re building the platform that makes that transformation possible,” said Deepak Bharadwaj, Chief Product Officer of Workiva. “As we evolve the Workiva platform, we’re staying true to what our customers have always counted on us to deliver: accuracy, transparency, and solutions shaped by the reality and complexity of their work.”
