“Element AI’s vision has always been to redefine how companies use AI to help people work smarter,” said Element AI Founder and CEO, Jean-Francois Gagne.

“ServiceNow is leading the workflow revolution and we are inspired by its purpose to make the world of work, work better for people.ServiceNow is the clear partner for us to apply our talent and technology to the most significant challenges facing the enterprise today.”

In March, the company hired Narayanan and launched Now Intelligence, a set of powerful AI capabilities to help customers scale insight to action.

Element AI is ServiceNow’s fourth AI acquisition in 2020, following Loom Systems, Passage AI, and Sweagle.

ServiceNow expects to complete the acquisition in early 2021
