Kanvas Update — May 2026
May was about taking the next step toward our vision for Kanvas.
Over the last few years, we've built the foundation: APIs, workflows, CRM, inventory, messaging, integrations, and the operational building blocks that power real businesses.
This month, we focused on strengthening the Nervous System.
Not by building another agent.
But by making Kanvas the layer that connects all of them.
The Nervous System Gets More Flexible

One of the biggest milestones this month was expanding the Kanvas agent architecture.
Our vision has never been to build around a single agent framework. The AI ecosystem is evolving too quickly for businesses to be locked into one platform.
Instead, Kanvas acts as the operational layer underneath your agents — managing business data, workflows, permissions, communications, and execution.
This month we expanded support for multiple agent runtimes and architectures.
Today Kanvas can coordinate agents across:
- Native Kanvas Agents
- OpenClaw
- Hermes
- External AI Providers
- Custom Agent Implementations
The goal is simple:
Businesses shouldn't have to rebuild their operations every time a new agent platform appears.
Your workflows stay the same. Your data stays connected. Your operations continue running.
That's what we mean when we say Kanvas is becoming the operational nervous system for modern businesses.
Better Visibility Into Agent Activity

As more work gets delegated to agents, understanding what happened becomes increasingly important.
This month we expanded the Nervous System event architecture to provide deeper visibility across:
- Conversations
- Agent actions
- Workflow executions
- Skills and tools
- Errors and system events
This gives teams a clearer understanding of how humans, agents, and systems interact across the platform.
Agent Learning & Memory Improvements

We continued investing in how agents retain context and organize work.
Agents can now better manage tasks, learn from activity, and maintain context across workflows.
While much of this work happens behind the scenes, it lays the foundation for more capable operational agents that can work continuously instead of reacting to a single prompt.
Agent Vision
Agents need more than text to operate effectively.
This month we added support for image processing across the Kanvas ecosystem, allowing agents to work with screenshots, photos, documents, and visual information as part of their workflows.
Sally Goes to Work

We continue to dogfood Kanvas internally.
This month we expanded Sally, our internal sales agent, and began using her throughout our own sales process.
We're also building accounting and invoicing agents that will eventually become part of the broader Kanvas ecosystem.
Using these agents ourselves helps us validate workflows, uncover bottlenecks, and improve the platform before customers ever see the features.
Preparing for Public Launch
A major focus this month was reducing the effort required to get started with Kanvas.
Social Login
We completed the groundwork for Google and GitHub authentication as part of our upcoming public onboarding experience.
One-Click Company Setup
We're also building automatic company provisioning.
Our goal is simple:
Create a company and have Kanvas automatically configure the foundational services required to operate:
- Voice
- SMS
- Agent infrastructure
- Core integrations
What used to take hours of setup will eventually take only a few minutes.
Platform Improvements
Alongside the larger initiatives, we shipped several ecosystem improvements:
- Continued progress on Acumatica integration work
- INTRAS integration moving closer to production rollout
- Vehicle Charge support for automotive and mobility use cases
- Stripe and payment infrastructure improvements
- Upgrades to core AI services and platform monitoring
- Improved health monitoring and operational visibility
Looking Ahead
June is focused on opening more of Kanvas to the public.
We're continuing work on kanvas.dev, simplifying onboarding, and refining the operational modules that power modern businesses.
The vision remains unchanged:
Kanvas is the operational nervous system that connects your data, workflows, humans, and agents into a single system.
Not another dashboard.
Not another AI tool.
The system where operations actually run.
See you next month.
