Agentic AI has been enabling immense productivity gains across various industries, from coding to deep research. In March, we released the first version of our open-source Deep Research demo that used lightning-fast inference on models, like DeepSeek powered by SambaNova, to generate reports in seconds instead of minutes. Today, we are unveiling the next iteration of that project, called Agents!
This isn't just a demo — it's a fully functional, open-source implementation that you can run locally, fork, and build upon. We're sharing this to show what's possible when you combine fast inference with thoughtful agentic design. What used to take hours across 5–8 different apps — research, analysis, formatting, and file creation — can now happen in a single prompt powered by SambaCloud and thanks to various integrations with partners, like Daytona and Hume.AI.
Now with Agents, we're adding four game-changing capabilities:
Imagine you are a business analyst. Your job consists of reading many reports, analyzing them, then creating actions that the rest of your team should execute. The traditional approach would take hours or days to aggregate and align teams to take actions.
With Agents, SambaNova is helping enterprises show how they can reduce that time from days to minutes. When you combine Voice Mode, OAuth Connectors, and API Access with our existing capabilities, you get a truly integrated agent platform. Let’s break it down with an example:
Example End-to-End Workflow:
All in one hop in under 2 minutes, thanks to the speed of DeepSeek running on SambaCloud.
With the latest update, we are also adding new ways to interact with agents across various modalities.
The days of typing long, complex prompts are over. Just press Ctrl+Space and start speaking. Voice Mode, powered by Hume.AI's Empathic Voice Interface (which runs on SambaNova), lets you interact with your agent through natural conversation. Speaking is often 10x faster than typing for complex requests, making it ideal for multitasking or mobile use. More importantly, unlike many other voice applications, Agents doesn’t read out the entire deep research report, which can take minutes. Instead, it summarizes the key points like you are actually having a conversation!
We've eliminated the frustrating context-switching that plagues modern work. Instead of juggling a dozen tabs and copying data between Gmail, Jira, and Google Drive, you can now connect your essential tools once and let the agent do the work. This eliminates tool sprawl and preserves context by keeping your data in its source of truth, ensuring the agent always pulls the latest, live information. Built on industry-standard OAuth 2.0, these connectors are secure by design, with granular permissions that limit access to only what's needed, reducing the risk of manual copy-paste errors. After a one-time setup, you have persistent, secure access to a growing list of platforms.

How It Works:
Beyond the interactive chat interface, Agents provides full API access unlocking programmatic control for developers. This allows you to seamlessly integrate agent capabilities directly into your own applications, workflows, and tools. Imagine triggering a complex financial analysis from your trading platform or automatically generating reports on a schedule. The API is designed for automation and scalability, enabling you to process hundreds of requests and embed deep research functions into your SaaS products. With a simple REST design and comprehensive documentation, it’s built to be developer-friendly.
What You Can Build:

Real-World Performance:
While the fastest way to get started using Agents is via our web interface at chat.sambanova.ai, many people have reached out to us asking how they can deploy and integrate the solution themselves with their data. Because we believe the future of AI agents is collaborative, we have chosen to make our Agents framework open source to accelerate enterprise adoption of agentic AI. By sharing this reference architecture, we're:
It’s as a simple as cloning from github and running on your own infrastructure:
To make it even easier to get up and running on our own infrastructure, Agents can be deployed in several different ways:
