    Key Features

    • Case Context Summarization: Automatically summarizes case details and comments, enabling agents to quickly understand the background and status of public service cases.
    • Resolution Note Generation: Creates draft resolution notes to streamline communication between agents and improve case closure efficiency.
    • Configurable AI Models: Supports multiple AI model providers; however, availability varies by customer region, data center environment, and compliance requirements.

    Important Considerations

    • Some AI models and features may be unavailable for customers in certain regions or restricted environments, including FedRAMP, NSC DOD IL5, Australia IRAP-Protected data centers, self-hosted customers, and regulated markets.
    • Customers should regularly check ServiceNow's Knowledge Base articles for updates on model provider availability and feature support.
    • The application requires data transfer from customer instances to a centralized ServiceNow environment, which may involve third-party cloud providers, governed by ServiceNow’s compliance policies.
    • ServiceNow collects input, output, and modification data from the application to improve AI technologies; customers can opt out of data collection if desired.

    AI Limitations and Best Practices

    Because the application uses AI and machine learning, outputs may not always be fully accurate or appropriate. It is critical for customers to:

    • Test and evaluate the AI-generated content for accuracy and suitability in their specific use cases.
    • Maintain human oversight to verify outputs before making decisions, especially in sensitive areas such as healthcare, finance, legal, security, or infrastructure.
    • Adhere to ServiceNow’s AI Acceptable Use Policy to ensure responsible use of AI capabilities.

    Support and Troubleshooting

    Customers can access support resources including the ServiceNow Community, AI & Intelligence forums, the Known Error Portal, and Customer Service and Support for assistance with the Now Assist for PSDS application.

    With the Now Assist for Public Sector Digital Services (PSDS) application, your agents can use generative AI to summarize the details and comment activity of each public service case to get the context of the case. They can also generate the case resolution notes to share with other agents.
