Welcome to IBM Agent Connect
What is IBM Agent Connect?
IBM Agent Connect is a partner program that offers independent software vendors (ISVs) the opportunity to collaborate with IBM to build Agents natively on IBM watsonx Orchestrate, and/or connect their existing Agents built elsewhere seamlessly into it.
The technical underpinning of this is based on the Agent Connect Framework which is a foundational integration architecture designed to enable seamless connectivity between external agents and watsonx Orchestrate.
The program extends the technical benefits of the framework by fostering strategic partnerships that drive business value by allowing partners to list their Agents into the Catalog.
