Summary
Flow by ServiceNow lets employees get IT help through Microsoft Teams, Slack, a web app or email, with early access now free under controlled availability.
ServiceNow says the standalone product can be running within a day without a full implementation, CMDB migration or new infrastructure, then escalates requests to humans when the AI lacks enough data.
More than 100 prebuilt connectors are meant to let Flow automate common tasks such as password resets, while pricing will be consumption-based and existing ServiceNow AI subscribers can use current assist pools.
North America customer rollout starts Oct. 6, with general availability in North America and EMEA due by year-end and wider release planned for the first quarter of 2027.
Analysts said the launch gives ServiceNow a lower-friction entry point into the crowded race for the 'front door of work,' though handing the interface to Slack or Teams could weaken its direct customer relationship.
