75% more AI solutions in production compared to the prior quarter
99% of employees fully trained and onboarded onto the platform - up from just over a third in January
Eliza adoption is up 175% this year
over 100 digital employees

Reported impact

Business outcome

BNY reports faster enterprise AI adoption and a growing production estate: employees across the company are trained on Eliza, more AI solutions are in production, digital employees automate routine work, and AI supports faster processing, onboarding, risk detection and contract review.

Solution

BNY built Eliza as an internal enterprise AI platform instead of relying on disconnected point tools. Eliza gives employees secure access to chat, search, coding and agent capabilities, and exposes a menu of models and vendor tools so builders across engineering, operations, product management, client coverage and corporate functions can create role-specific AI solutions. The platform serves as the orchestration layer for prototyping, testing and deploying Eliza agents and digital employees with guardrails, telemetry and approval controls aligned to BNY's data, risk, legal and compliance standards. On top of that platform, BNY has put serving applications such as its Contract Review Assistant into production and applies AI in transaction and market monitoring, payment processing, client onboarding, reconciliations and lead identification. The source does not name a storage stack, but it makes clear that enterprise data, governance controls and supervisory oversight are embedded into day-to-day operation at scale.

Data flow

Employees access Eliza as a unified AI entry point for secure chat, search, coding and agent workflows. Eliza presents a menu of models and vendor tools to builders, who prototype, test and deploy agents and digital employees under guardrails, telemetry and approvals. Those AI services are then applied inside payment, onboarding, reconciliation, risk monitoring and contract review workflows, with outputs returned to staff and client-facing operations.
