Details
- Salesforce has agreed to acquire Doti, a specialist in agentic enterprise search, in a move announced November 13, 2025, as part of its effort to unify and advance AI-driven search and knowledge discovery across its platform.
- Doti’s team and engineering talent will join Salesforce's Israel R&D hub, the company’s largest outside the U.S., home to roughly 800–1,000 employees and a focal point of Salesforce’s global AI innovation.
- Doti’s technology will enable a unified, agentic enterprise search layer to be built into the Salesforce platform, using Slack as the main conversational interface for both employees and AI agents to surface and act on data and insights from across the business.
- This deal advances Salesforce’s long-term agentic AI strategy, building on previous milestones such as Einstein and Agentforce, to embed autonomous intelligence across customer and employee experiences.
- The acquisition is expected to close in Salesforce’s Q4 FY2026 (January–March 2026), pending customary approvals; financial terms were not disclosed.
Impact
Salesforce’s move emphasizes growing enterprise demand for autonomous search and agent-powered productivity, and deepens its competition with Microsoft and Google in the AI enterprise space. By leveraging Slack as the user interface for this capability, Salesforce strengthens its platform’s collaborative edge and further integrates AI into daily workflows. The acquisition also highlights Israel’s expanding role as a global center for enterprise AI R&D.
