# Increasing AI readiness in AI Admin Center

Use AI readiness assessments to help you find actionable items in your implementation preparation and direct links to improve those areas.

## AI readiness overview

AI readiness assessments help you determine the readiness of your organization's instance to implement generative and agentic AI features. They enable you to assess whether updates, installations, or customizations of your instance could affect implementation.

The AI readiness assessments jobs automate assessment processes, evaluate data readiness, and provide actionable insights with links to help you more quickly prepare for AI adoption.

The AI readiness assessment evaluates and assesses the following areas of your instance for AI implementation readiness.

-   AI agents and agentic workflows
    -   Agentic AI for IT Service Management \(ITSM\)
    -   Agentic AI for Customer Service Management \(CSM\)
    -   Agentic AI for HR Service Delivery \(HRSD\)
-   Generative AI capabilities
    -   Generative AI for AI Search
    -   Generative AI for Virtual Agent \(VA\)
    -   Generative AI for IT Service Management \(ITSM\)
