- Oracle’s new AI agents let automation handle some low-value work so humans can focus on negotiations
- AI Agent Studio is also easier to use with a new code-free, natural language agent builder
- Share prices have risen slightly, but investors remain concerned about the longevity of traditional software
Oracle is looking to inject even more agent AI into enterprise software, leaving low-value administrative work like invoicing, purchase orders and data entry to the computer so humans can focus more on negotiations, strategy and risk decisions.
The news comes as part of a wider revamp of Fusion cloud apps announced at its Oracle AI World Tour London event, but it also responds to growing concerns about the role of traditional software in the modern workplace.
Investors are already worried about existing types of software, with the company’s shares down about 20% year-to-date, but the company is fighting back with more AI tools.

Oracle is adding more artificial intelligence to its software
Oracle has added 22 new Fusion Agentic applications across finance, HR, supply chain and customer experience to help realize four goals: lower labor costs, lower supplier procurement costs, lower customer acquisition costs and faster cash collection.
Fusion Agentic Applications are described as teams of AI agents that can reason, decide and act like a team of human workers, but they are built directly into transactional systems rather than being copilot-style add-ons.
“With Fusion Agentic Applications, we are moving enterprise software beyond passive systems of record and providing our customers with applications that can reason, decide and act in pursuit of defined business goals,” wrote Application Development EVP Steve Miranda.
At the same time, Oracle has also updated its AI Agent Audio to include a code-free, natural language agent builder as well as a dedicated ROI dashboard. EVP of Application Development Chris Leone explained that companies need this support to fine-tune their agents based on workflows and priorities.
