For AI to deliver accurate, context-aware, and actionable outputs, it must be trained and operate on high-quality data that is complete, consistent, and structured. When your data is well-prepared, Now Assist can interpret user queries with greater accuracy, enabling faster resolutions and more effective self-service experiences. Whether it's summarizing complex incidents, generating resolution notes, or creating knowledge articles, Now Assist relies on detailed records that reflect the full lifecycle of a task. Short or incomplete cases often lack the depth needed for meaningful AI interpretation, which can result in vague or unhelpful responses. The importance of data readiness extends beyond technical accuracy---it directly impacts user trust and adoption. Clean, ready data also accelerates implementation. It minimizes the need for rework, reduces deployment friction, and ensures that AI features like summarization, recommendations, and workflow guidance operate smoothly from day one. This leads to higher ticket deflection rates and improved operational efficiency, allowing teams to focus on strategic tasks rather than repetitive support. Moreover, high-quality data fosters trust in AI outputs. When users consistently receive reliable and context-aware responses, their confidence in the system grows---driving adoption and maximizing return on investment. Ultimately, investing in data quality is an investment in user satisfaction, AI performance, and long-term success. Follow these tips to assess your organization's data readiness: * Audit task records for completeness and clarity, and ensure resolution fields are consistently filled out with clear summaries. * Avoid using vague or generic language in task descriptions and updates. * Maintain a clean and structured knowledge base and ensure that knowledge articles are linked to resolved cases.For details, see [Knowledge Base readiness for Now Assist on the ServiceNow AI Platform](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/XymFFNf~RBBRN02l~RPzUg "The knowledge base is the engine that enables Now Assist to deliver intelligent, accurate, and context-aware responses across AI Search, Q&A Genius Results, and other AI-powered experiences."). * Audit Service Catalog items. For details, see [Service Catalog readiness for Now Assist on the ServiceNow AI Platform](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/anVJUJU14NiyyiPp6GrL1w "A well-structured Service Catalog is essential to unlocking the full potential of Now Assist. As the backbone of many self-service workflows, the catalog enables Now Assist to interpret user requests accurately, present the right options, and minimize friction in the experience."). * Use the Now Assist Readiness Evaluation app to assess catalog, case, and knowledge data. * Use the Now Assist Data Kit to curate and cleanse data sources. * Align stakeholders (data owners, product managers, engineers) around shared standards for AI-ready data.For details, see [AI governance for Now Assist on the ServiceNow AI Platform](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/5HS1cYkrEo~ElUVPxdILSQ "As organizations increasingly adopt AI to drive efficiency, innovation, and customer experience, AI governance becomes essential to ensure responsible use, regulatory compliance, and alignment with enterprise goals. Now Assist provides a comprehensive governance framework through key roles and applications that work together to manage AI across its life cycle."). {#sn-ai-impl-data-readiness__ul_rmm_jjq_zgc} For more information, see [Now Assist Data Readiness Checklist](https://mynow.servicenow.com/now/best-practices/assets/now-assist-data-readiness-checklist). ## Now Assist Readiness Evaluation app {#sn-ai-impl-data-readiness__section_y3s_rs1_zgc} Data readiness assessments can be time-consuming and manual, especially when evaluating whether catalog items are conversational or if knowledge articles are embedded in inaccessible formats like PDFs. The Now Assist Readiness Evaluation app helps automate this process by analyzing service catalog entries, cases, and incidents, and then providing actionable recommendations to prepare data for AI use. It also enables you to assess whether updates, installations, or customizations of your instance could affect implementation. The assessments provide direct hyperlinks to improve any issues found. For more information, see [Now Assist Readiness Evaluation](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/7JkqvzVbgbRcoxMSYMVM_Q "The Now Assist Readiness Evaluation app helps prepare your organization for implementing agentic AI for ITSM and CSM, Now Assist for five products, or both."). Install Now Assist Readiness Evaluation by requesting it from the ServiceNow Store. Visit the [ServiceNow Store](https://store.servicenow.com/sn_appstore_store.do#!/store/home) to view all the available apps, and for information about submitting requests to the store. For cumulative release notes information for all released apps, see the [ServiceNow Store version history release notes](https://docs.servicenow.com/bundle/store-release-notes/page/release-notes/store/sn-store-release-notes.html). ## Now Assist Data Kit {#sn-ai-impl-data-readiness__section_osg_rz1_zgc} If the base system Now Assist skills don't fit your needs, use the Now Assist Data Kit to curate, cleanse, and manage data for AI evaluations. You can create custom datasets and data collections that can be used in Now Assist Skill Kit for evaluation. For more information, see [Now Assist Data Kit](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/zQLzJ5PKjQnnol_bQn7y4g "Use ServiceNowNow Assist Data Kit to add datasets to a data catalog. The curated data works with ServiceNow SDK to enable the AI skill development and evaluation.").
