Coveo expands partnership with Salesforce, exploring MCP Server on AgentExchange to empower scalable digital labor work forces.

Coveo , the leader in AI-Relevance, delivering best-in-class AI-search and generative experiences that maximize business outcomes at every point-of-experience, announced the expansion of its partnership with Salesforce and its collaboration with Salesforce for MCP Server on AgentExchange, further enhancing the ability of AI agents to access relevant, accurate, and secure enterprise data through a standardized protocol. Model Context Protocol (MCP) activates AI agents with a wide range of external tools and systems, helping to provide interoperability and centralized governance. With MCP Server, Coveo aims to help customers ground AI agents in their business reality by providing critical retrieval layers that dramatically reduce hallucinations and enable reliable, scalable, and secure outcomes, addressing the challenge of fragmented data and ensuring high-quality inputs for AI agents.

Agentforce is a digital labor platform for enterprises to augment teams with trusted autonomous AI agents in the flow of work. With Salesforce’s AgentExchange, a leading AI agent ecosystem for enterprises, customers have access to hundreds of ready-to-use actions, topics, and templates built by partners, and will have access to pre-validated Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers. These servers help customers to quickly create and deploy their digital workforce of AI agents by connecting external tools and data to an MCP-compliant server. For e-commerce businesses, this means AI agents can access real-time product catalogs, inventory data, and customer purchase histories to deliver personalized shopping experiences and accurate product recommendations.

Customers will be able to leverage Coveo’s expertise to connect and extend their AI capabilities. The forthcoming Coveo MCP Server on AgentExchange will complement its existing Coveo for Agentforce application on AgentExchange, which provides Agentforce end-users a simplified, intelligent self-service experience, while significantly reducing the time to find information and complete tasks with AI-powered assistance. The expanded partnership reinforces Coveo’s commitment to customer success that spans the full breadth of Salesforce opportunities and extends digital labor with Agentforce. For e-commerce retailers, this translates to AI agents that handle customer inquiries about product availability, shipping status, or return policies or AI agents that automate tedious manual merchandising.
