AI in Salesforce: Einstein, Agentforce, and what you still buy separately

Salesforce keeps launching AI. Buyers keep buying best-of-breed too. Here's the honest split.

What native SF AI does well

  • Predictive scoring on clean data
  • Einstein activity capture with reasonable accuracy
  • Summarization inside records

Where best-of-breed still wins

  • Voice agents, live-call copilot, prospecting agents
  • Cross-channel orchestration outside SF surfaces
  • Anything that needs sub-minute latency

Integration pattern

Bi-directional sync on account, contact, opportunity, activity. Everything else can live where it's best served.
