What Is Monday AI?
Monday AI provides natural-language interaction with your monday workspace. AI Blocks are drag-and-drop LLM steps inside automation recipes — "when item created, use AI Block to classify urgency, then assign to person". AI Assistant is a sidebar where users can ask questions of their boards, generate boards from prompts, and draft content. Monday Service (ITSM) ships with AI Ticket Deflection and AI Agent for customer service.

Gartner's 2026 Market Guide for Collaborative Work Management noted monday.com's AI-first product expansion (particularly Service) as a differentiator.
