• We added the ability to archive a Journey in the journey builder. Once archived, no new customers can go into that Journey and the journey will be hidden from the main journeys list, but can be found through a filter. A Journey can be unarchived and updated if needed.
• Fixed an issue where tasks would sometimes not get created when used in parallel steps in a journey
• Fixed an issue where the closeout action sometimes did not properly close out a journey
• Fixed an issue where the loading spinner on automation actions on the journey timeline would sometimes not go away

Reporting & Dashboards

• We launched Journey and Task analytics to give you near real time dashboards for your Journey and Task data. This includes overall stats, detailed insights, and friction points to help optimize your workflows. We are rolling this out now so please let us know if you would like access to these dashboards.
• We added to ability to add Case and Location data to your Journey and Task dashboards to bring additional insights into the your data.

Security

• We updated our CSP policy for improved security

New Task statuses are now available.

To help you better track and manage your tasks, we have added new statuses: In Progress and On Hold. This will allow you to more easily track tasks that are actively being worked on compared to tasks that have not yet been started or those that are stuck.

For each task, you can now choose from the following statuses:

1. Not Started
2. In Progress
3. On Hold
4. Completed
5. Canceled

In addition to these new statuses, we have updated the task cards with split buttons. This feature still allows you to complete a task with a single click while also allowing you to quickly move any task to any status, streamlining your workflow.

Stay tuned for more updates, as we will soon be adding enhanced search and filtering capabilities for tasks. We hope these improvements make your task management experience even more efficient and effective.

We have launched a new feature in our email templates that will enhance your communication capabilities. 

Previously, you could only use standard fields from the related case and location within outbound emails. Now, you can add custom fields from your case and location records in addition to standard fields.

This new feature allows you to create more dynamic and robust outbound emails tailored to your needs. For example,

• You could include a username from a custom field on the location in the welcome email during onboarding.
• You could share a dynamic login URL based on the product the customer purchased for a new product activation.
• You could share renewal dates or training scheduled dates in automated emails for richer communication.

You can find these new custom field tokens in the same token list where the current standard field tokens are in Settings > Email Templates (in the new CXME).

We hope that this enhancement improves your ability to communicate effectively and efficiently with your customers and look forward to seeing how you utilize this new feature to enhance your email communications.

Our Copilot and Article Writer AI Agents can now understand files and links provided to them as part of the context data. 

This means you can upload files or copy and paste them into the composer, and when the AI Agent processes your question or request, it will also review any images or files that you provide. That data from these additional content sources data will be added to the context of the session. Additionally, if you provide a URL, the agent will automatically review the content on that URL (if it is public) and use that data as part of its context as well.

This new capability allows you to do more with our AI Agents. A few examples include:

1. Give an agent an image of an system error, and the agent can use that error to search your knowledge base for the answer.
2. Include a PDF of a customer contract and ask the agent to review the contract for specific terms. 
3. Give an a URL of an external knowledge base article, and the agent can gather all the information and use that to answer your question.

We hope this enhancement will make your experience with our AI Agents even more powerful and efficient. We look forward to seeing how you use this new feature to streamline your tasks and improve your workflow.

To move AI from a novelty to a core banking utility, you need more than a prompt - you need an operational foundation to help govern this intelligence at all times. That is why we built  OvationCXM’s AI Studio: the unified command center designed to create, configure, and continuously improve high-performance AI agents within a secure, governed framework.

By layering AI directly into structured, governed workflows, we ensure that every automated step is anchored in a real-world operational context, allowing work to move predictably across your entire ecosystem. Without a central point of control, AI risks becoming another siloed application that increases operational complexity rather than reducing it - a significant risk in a high-stakes, regulated environment.

OvationCXM’s AI Studio provides the transparency needed to audit AI logic, the laboratory to safely test new models, prompts and rules in a sandbox, and the governance to ensure every digital assistant remains a compliant, audited extension of your institution’s policies.  

In this post, we discuss how we take an AI agent from a concept to a high-performing operational asset in four distinct phases. 

Phase 1: Build

In OvationCXM’s AI Studio, an agent is not a generic chatbot; it is a specialized digital employee with a specific role, voice, and set of boundaries. The process begins by defining the Agent’s functional purpose from one of our four specialized types. For example, you might deploy a Summarizer agent to instantly distill years of fragmented email threads into a single, actionable case history, or OvationCXM’s internal-facing agent (copilot) to work alongside your staff, suggesting the next best step based on live orchestration data. For direct engagement, the external-facing conversational agent handles real-time customer inquiries, while the article writer/editor ensures your knowledge base stays current by drafting and refining baseline documentation based on successfully resolved cases.

Once the agent’s purpose is defined, it’s time to select the best model from a library of over 300 industry-leading models. This flexibility allows you to assign a high-reasoning model for complex analysis while using a faster, lightweight model for high-volume data routing. Crucially, you can approve a subset of models for your organization or even bring your own keys (BYOK), enabling you to use your own enterprise accounts with the model provider of your choice. 

To ensure consistency, you can also configure your global branding with information about your specific organization, including your brand voice and desired tone. By anchoring agents in these specific Global Branding configurations, you ensure that every agent speaks with the professional tone and consistency your brand demands, regardless of its function.

Phase 2: Execute

In this second phase, OvationCXM’s AI Studio bridges the gap between conversation and execution. In addition to the high-quality responses and content you receive from agents, they can also take direct action on your behalf through integrated workflows and tools. Because banking tasks are rarely linear, you define advanced workflows that guide the agent through multi-step scenarios - such as verifying a customer’s identity across three different systems before it ever suggests a journey change. 

When the agent needs to interact with your systems, it uses a set of deterministic tools, including secure API calls that allow the agent to perform key tasks. These tasks can include fetching a real-time account balance from a core system or updating a record in your CRM. By using these tools, the agent doesn't have to guess. Instead, it acts with precision, using the authenticated data already present in your ecosystem.

Phase 3: Observe

With OvationCXM’s AI Studio, every interaction is captured in a detailed trace, providing an auditable, step-by-step view of the agent's reasoning, the context used, and the final response. If a logic gap appears, you can see exactly where the agent diverged from the expected path.

This transparency is bolstered by a continuous feedback loop. Users can rate AI interactions, and any poor rating is routed to a review queue immediately. This allows your team to take immediate corrective action - whether that means adding a new rule, updating a knowledge article, or assigning a task to a human team member to step in. The point is that you aren't just watching the AI - you are managing it in real-time.

Phase 4: Improve

The final phase is about evolution without risk. In traditional software, you use unit tests to ensure code doesn't break; in AI Studio, you use Evaluations. First, you define your Data Sets based on questions and verified answers that the agent must handle correctly.

Before any change to a prompt or a rule goes live, you run an Experiment. AI Studio utilizes an LLM-as-a-Judge to automatically grade the agent’s new responses against your pre-defined criteria. This allows you to iterate and improve your agents with total confidence, knowing that your quality standards are being both met and proven before the AI ever interacts with a customer or a sensitive workflow.

The Bottom Line

AI Studio isn't just a builder - it’s a comprehensive governance layer that bridges the gap between modern intelligence and legacy core systems.  It provides the infrastructure to ensure that as your bank scales its capabilities, it does so with the observability, safety, and precision that the industry demands. By prioritizing structured orchestration first and on-demand intelligence, OvationCXM helps you transform AI from a speculative novelty into a permanent competitive advantage.

We are excited to announce a new feature: Forms in Journeys. This enhancement allows you to incorporate forms as actions within a journey, providing an easy way to collect structured data throughout the life of a customer experience.

Forms can be designed to be either internal or customer-facing, or even both, depending on your needs. One of the key benefits of this feature is the ability to prepopulate form data based on context data from the journey, case, or customer. This ensures a seamless and personalized experience for users and ensuring that they don't have to manually enter information that you already have in your systems.

The data submitted through these forms can also be utilized as inputs for future actions within the same journey. This capability becomes really powerful as it enables you to automate decisions and future actions (e.g. API calls) by taking the output of the form to use as the inputs of those actions, enhancing the overall efficiency and effectiveness of your processes.

To ensure consistency with your brand identity, custom theming is available for all forms. This allows you to maintain a cohesive look and feel across all customer interactions.

We believe that this new feature will significantly enhance your ability to engage with customers and streamline your workflows. We look forward to seeing how you leverage Forms in Journeys to achieve your business objectives.

Gathering customer data shouldn't feel like pulling teeth. We’ve heard your feedback loud and clear: you need forms that aren’t just "digital paper," but active engines for your customer experience.

Today, we are thrilled to announce our completely reimagined Forms product. We’ve rebuilt the experience from the ground up to help you capture data more efficiently while keeping your customers engaged.

Design with Confidence (No Code Required)

You shouldn’t need a developer to build a high-quality and high-converting workflow. Our new Drag-and-Drop Builder puts the power in your hands with over 60 unique elements across field input types and form structures. Whether you need simple text inputs or complex logic-based workflows, you can build it in minutes.

Build Once, Deploy Everywhere

Our new form builder allows you to build a single form and deploy it to be used in multiple places, including public URLs, embedded in websites, added to Cases, and as actions in Journeys. Once your form is live, you can leverage our native version control to easily make updates without impacting any existing instances of the published form.

Pre-populate Data

Stop asking your customers questions you already know the answer to. Our new Forms can pull existing case and customer data directly into a form so customers can skip the repetitive fields. When a form is submitted as part of a Journey, that form data is instantly accessible in future journey actions, ensuring a smooth hand-off between departments and automated workflows.

Your Brand, Front and Center

Consistency builds trust. With our custom themes, your forms won’t look like a third-party add-on. Use extensive theme customization to ensure every form feels like a native part of your brand’s digital ecosystem. This includes font, colors, logos, and all aspects of the form CSS.

Save Now, Finish Later

Complex onboarding or lengthy applications often lead to high drop-off rates. To combat this, we’ve introduced Save and Return. Your customers can now pause their progress and pick up exactly where they left off, significantly increasing completion rates for your most important experiences.

Export your Data

Easily view the submitted data or export the data by date range to a spreadsheet to get all your critical information into whatever system you need.
