Samsara Inc. (NYSE:IOT) is one of the best up and coming tech stocks to buy now. On June 24, Samsara announced the launch of new agentic capabilities, headlined by a first-of-its-kind “Agent Studio” for physical operations. This tool allows operations teams to build, customize, and deploy AI agents to automate repetitive tasks (such as managing paperwork, communicating with drivers, and coordinating with vendors) without requiring IT or developer expertise.

The platform uses Samsara’s extensive data network, which captured 25 trillion data points in 2025, to provide real-time insights into fleet and worksite activities. Through Agent Studio, customers can utilize over 15 pre-built templates or create bespoke workflows, enabling them to reallocate staff resources toward higher-value initiatives rather than manual data compilation and administrative follow-up.

Early adopters across industries like food distribution and field services have already reported significant time savings, including reduced communication delays and automated fleet status reporting. By allowing teams to build and manage their own AI workflows, Samsara aims to accelerate innovation in complex physical operations while reducing the dependency on traditional, time-consuming IT project queues.

Samsara Inc. (NYSE:IOT) develops cloud-based sensor systems, which combine plug-and-play sensors, internet connectivity, and cloud-based software. The company is based in San Francisco, California, and was started in 2015 by John Bicket and Sanjit Biswas.
