Mendix 11 – The dawn of the AI-first era in low-code

Mendix 11 marks a shift from low-code automation to AI-first application design. In this Insight, Pretius breaks down how the GenAI components in Mendix 11 enable teams to build AI agents that don’t just answer questions, but actively participate in business processes. The article explains how Semantic Search, RAG, Agent Builder, multi-agent patterns, and function calling can be combined to create assistants for customer service, sales, HR, compliance, and analytics — all grounded in company data, not generic model knowledge. For CTOs and application leaders, this is a practical look at how AI can be embedded into Mendix apps in a controlled, auditable way, enabling conversational interfaces, contextual decision support, and AI-driven actions without losing governance or predictability.
