Forward Networks Introduces Forward AI

29 janvier 2026Par LA REDACTION DE GS MAG

Forward Networks announced Forward AI, a new capability that accelerates network operations by enabling network, security, and cloud teams to ask complex questions, understand network behavior, validate outcomes and safely automate workflows with confidence. Built on a mathematically accurate digital twin of the network, Forward AI allows IT teams and AI agents to act on trusted data rather than assumptions.

As IT organizations accelerate AI adoption and modernization, network complexity is increasing while headcount remains largely flat, placing new pressure on teams to sustain reliability and security at scale. AI-driven operations offer a path forward, but require accurate, complete, and verifiable data.

Forward AI establishes a foundation for the safe adoption of agentic AI in network operations by delivering validated, evidence-backed recommendations. Built on a complete, behaviorally accurate understanding of the network, Forward AI enables agentic workflows that IT teams can trust. Each result is accompanied by clear evidence, allowing teams to inspect underlying data and reasoning, validate outcomes, and act with confidence.

Forward Networks is extending trusted agentic AI beyond its own platform. Through support for the Model Context Protocol (MCP), Forward AI makes its verification foundation available to enterprises and third-party developers, enabling them to build agentic tools that deliver trustworthy outcomes grounded in accurate, always current network data.

Forward AI will be included in the Forward Enterprise platform. The capability is scheduled for general availability in April 2026.
