Workiva Advances Regulatory Work with AI Innovation

Workiva Inc. (NYSE: WK), a leading, audit-ready platform for trust, transparency, and accountability, unveiled dozens of new product and platform innovations at Amplify 2026, the company’s annual conference attended by thousands of finance, accounting, sustainability, risk, and compliance leaders.

Workiva Debuts Agent Studio
Workiva introduced Agent Studio, a landmark platform capability that empowers users to quickly build, customize, and deploy AI agents in Workiva's trusted platform. By combining AI reasoning with Workiva's native platform capabilities, enterprise knowledge, and governed workflows, Agent Studio enables users to automate sophisticated manual business processes without writing any code. Organizations can enrich agents with company-specific knowledge and context, tailor them to their own processes, and schedule automations to execute recurring work.

“With Agent Studio, we're putting the power to build in the hands of the people who know the work and their company the best. But what you build is only as strong as what it's built on,” said Julie Iskow, CEO of Workiva. "Every company has access to AI. What matters is whether your outcomes are traceable, defensible, and can hold up in front of investors and regulators. This is even more important as AI becomes more ubiquitous."

Workiva Broadens Regulatory Reporting Footprint
The release of three new agentic solutions marks Workiva’s expansion into a wider universe of reporting obligations and regulatory work. Starting with what has historically been highly manual regulatory disclosures, such as BEA (Bureau of Economic Analysis) surveys, US Census surveys, and Country-by-Country Reporting, accounting and finance teams will be able to manage a broader range of regulatory requirements within the same connected platform.

Workiva Launches Automated Testing for Internal Audit and GRC
The new agentic solution accelerates testing while maintaining consistency, traceability, and governance. By orchestrating evidence, attribute, and testing agents, the solution replaces manual evidence collection, sample selection, attribute testing, and documentation with a purpose-built workflow that provides full traceability at every step. The result is expanded sampling capacity, broader risk coverage, and the ability to scale testing without scaling manual effort.

"Transformation requires genuine buy-in at every level of the value stream. This work has always demanded process precision. Now it demands velocity, too,” said Keri Tracy, Chief Audit Executive of Newell Brands. “As AI takes on more work, it frees audit professionals to focus on higher-value judgment, interpretation, and risk management. But that only works if people trust the technology. When teams feel heard, valued, and supported through the change, adoption follows naturally, controls strengthen, and the integrity of the process becomes the foundation that withstands any audit or regulatory scrutiny."
