Kantata said it has launched Expertise Agent, an AI system for professional services automation that is designed to coordinate resource planning, project management, financial workflows, business intelligence, and cross-platform actions through its Expertise Engine.
Kantata announced the launch of Expertise Agent, describing it in a Business Wire release as an AI “superagent” built for professional services organizations.
According to Kantata, the new system is part of its Kantata Expertise Engine and is intended to help coordinate work across resource planning, project management, financial operations, business intelligence, and related professional services automation workflows.
The company said the launch also includes new agentic capabilities in the Expertise Engine, including agentic business intelligence, self-executing workflows, and a proprietary professional services automation knowledge graph. Business Wire reported that Kantata is positioning the system for use across its OX and SX solutions.
In the Business Wire announcement, Kantata said Expertise Agent is designed to autonomously orchestrate workflows for professional services firms. The company listed resource planning, project management, financial workflows, and knowledge-graph-based reasoning among the areas it expects the system to support.
Kantata also said the product uses Model Context Protocol-based cross-platform operations. In practical terms, the company is presenting the system as a way to connect AI-driven actions across multiple software environments, rather than limiting assistance to a single application screen or static recommendation panel.
The announcement describes the Expertise Engine as the underlying layer for these capabilities. Kantata said this includes a proprietary PSA knowledge graph, which it says can help reason across professional services data. The company also highlighted agentic BI, suggesting that users may be able to ask questions or trigger analysis that draws on operational and financial context inside Kantata’s software.
Business Wire and StreetInsider, which syndicated the Business Wire release, reported that Expertise Agent and the related Expertise Engine capabilities are available across Kantata’s OX and SX solutions.
The announcement is aimed at professional services businesses, including firms that manage client projects, billable resources, staffing, budgets, and revenue recognition. Kantata’s stated goal is to reduce manual coordination across these functions by letting AI systems recommend or execute workflow steps.
Because the available information comes from Kantata’s own announcement, the company’s performance claims should be read as product positioning rather than independently verified benchmarks. The sources provided do not include third-party testing, customer deployment data, pricing details, or technical documentation showing how much human review is required before workflows are executed.
Professional services automation platforms are increasingly adding AI features that go beyond summarization and chat-style assistance. Kantata’s announcement reflects a broader move toward systems that can act across planning, delivery, finance, and reporting workflows.
For firms that rely on accurate staffing forecasts and project margins, the key question will be whether these systems can use company-specific data reliably while preserving oversight. Kantata’s release emphasizes orchestration and knowledge-graph reasoning, but the cited sources do not provide detailed information about governance controls, audit trails, integrations, or error-handling processes.
Kantata’s launch therefore marks a product expansion in the professional services automation market, with the company framing Expertise Agent as an AI layer for coordinating operational work across its platform. Further evaluation will depend on customer usage, implementation details, and measurable results beyond the launch announcement.
