## Summary

At the Dataiku Summit in Paris, Florian Douetteau, CEO of Dataiku, presented the software vendor's strategy for agentic AI in business. He states that around 20% of companies capture 75% of the value generated by AI, while the remaining 80% fail, in his view, because of excessive trust in "black boxes". Dataiku advocates an approach based on governance, traceability and building up in-house skills, rather than the wholesale replacement of processes with autonomous agents. The company is launching Agent Management, a portal for monitoring and auditing agents scheduled for 15 October, and is evolving its Cobuild interface towards a conversational mode designed for non-specialists. Dataiku reports 2,000 active Cobuild users across 250 accounts, with a target of 6,000 users by the end of 2026. The platform also relies on sovereign infrastructure such as Scaleway and Orange.
