# AI tools and files

# AI tools and files in ServiceNow Studio {#ariaid-title1}

Release version: Brazil  
Updated September 10, 2026  
![](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/portal-asset/ico-clock) 1 minute to read  
Use AI tools and files in ServiceNow Studio to create and summarize apps using generative AI. You can also add AI files to applications to enhance user productivity through conversation and proactive experiences.

The main AI tools available in ServiceNow Studio are the ServiceNow Otto for Creator app summary generation skill and Build Agent. Use app summary generation to create short descriptions of existing apps. For more information about Build Agent, see [Build Agent in ServiceNow Studio](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/XD0IFZTRVqXGkbLFZZkPWw "Use Build Agent, an autonomous AI agent, to create and update applications in ServiceNow Studio through conversational interaction.").

## App summary generation {#working-with-now-assist-tools-sn-studio__section_a54_4r2_mfc}

After creating an app, use the app summary generation skill to create a summary of the contents and purpose of the app. Rate or update the summary and use it as the app description. Accurate app descriptions support app ecosystem
governance and help identify duplicate apps.

For more information, see [App summary generation](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/R8LfNM4HsHKBLq9dQIM_uA "Use the ServiceNow Otto for Creator application to use generative AI for summarizing an app. With a single button, ServiceNow Otto for Creator generates the app summary that you can then copy to the app description, or use to find duplicate apps.").

## What AI file types can I add to an application? {#working-with-now-assist-tools-sn-studio__section_shz_bwz_tfc}

Add three types of AI files to applications: agentic workflows, AI agents, and skills. These files open in a new tab for editing in AI Agent Studio. After creating or editing an AI file, return to the App details page and select the reload app details icon ![]() to capture the changes. For more information about AI file types, see [ServiceNow Studio Navigator panel taxonomy](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/M1~wZy1dtsii76yE1BaOLQ "Reference each metadata file type and its corresponding primary table in the File categories tab of the ServiceNow Studio Navigator panel.").  
Important:  
AI options in the ServiceNow Studio file taxonomy are only available if the AI components have been installed and configured.
