    Key Outcomes

    By using Now Assist for Creator, ServiceNow customers can efficiently summarize applications, improving documentation and reducing duplication. However, customers should be mindful of AI limitations and ensure proper oversight and evaluation of AI-generated outputs, especially in critical fields. Additionally, customers can opt-out of data collection regarding app usage as outlined by ServiceNow's policies.

    Use the ServiceNow® Now Assist for Creator application to use generative AI for summarizing an app. With a single button, Now Assist for Creator generates the app summary that you can then copy to the app description, or use to find duplicate apps.
