Salesforce announces AIforce, an AI agent interface layer

At Dreamforce 2026 Salesforce announced AIforce, a "living interface layer" for the AI agent era. The platform gives AI agents from Claude and OpenAI direct access to Salesforce data and workflows, potentially removing the need for users to log in.

• AIforce positioned as a replacement for the traditional Salesforce UI
• Claude and OpenAI agents get direct access to platform data
• Development took two years, starting with Agentforce
• Gartner: by 2030 $234 billion in app spending at risk from agentic arbitrage
