NVIDIA, a global leader in artificial intelligence (AI) technology, has launched the NVIDIA NIM™ Agent Blueprints, a comprehensive catalog of pretrained and customizable AI workflows. This new offering is designed to empower millions of enterprise developers with the tools needed to build and deploy generative AI applications for a variety of core use cases. These include customer service avatars, drug discovery virtual screening, and data extraction from PDFs, with additional applications to be rolled out in the coming months.
Accelerating AI Deployments with NIM Agent Blueprints
NVIDIA's NIM Agent Blueprints provide a significant advantage to developers by offering a head start in creating AI applications that incorporate one or more AI agents. These blueprints include sample applications, reference code, customization documentation, and deployment tools like Helm charts. Enterprises can tailor these blueprints to their specific needs, using their own business data to refine AI applications continually. This capability fosters the development of data-driven AI flywheels, enabling enterprises to optimize their AI models over time based on user feedback.
The first set of available blueprints includes a digital human workflow for customer service, a generative virtual screening workflow for drug discovery, and a multimodal PDF data extraction workflow for enterprise retrieval-augmented generation (RAG). These blueprints are accessible for developers to download and experience, with the option for production deployment through the NVIDIA AI Enterprise software platform.
Key Partnerships to Deliver AI Solutions Globally
NVIDIA has partnered with leading global system integrators and technology providers to bring NIM Agent Blueprints to enterprises worldwide. These partners include Accenture, Deloitte, SoftServe, and World Wide Technology (WWT), who will integrate NVIDIA’s blueprints into their AI solutions and services. Additionally, infrastructure providers such as Cisco, Dell Technologies, Hewlett Packard Enterprise (HPE), and Lenovo are offering NVIDIA-accelerated solutions to facilitate the deployment of NIM Agent Blueprints.
Transformative Impact on Key Industries
The digital human NIM Agent Blueprint is poised to revolutionize customer service by enabling enterprises to deploy 3D animated avatars for more engaging and humanlike customer interactions. According to Gartner®, by 2025, 80% of conversational offerings will embed generative AI, up from just 20% in 2024, highlighting the growing importance of such technologies.
For the pharmaceutical industry, the generative virtual screening NIM Agent Blueprint accelerates drug discovery by leveraging AI to identify and optimize drug-like molecules more efficiently. This blueprint incorporates advanced microservices like AlphaFold2 and DiffDock to enhance the virtual screening process, ultimately reducing the time and cost of drug development.
The multimodal PDF data extraction workflow offers enterprises a powerful tool for unlocking insights from vast amounts of PDF data. This workflow can be integrated into customer service chatbots, AI agents, or digital humans, enabling these systems to become experts on any topic captured within their data corpus.
Expanding AI Capabilities Through Collaboration
NVIDIA’s extensive partner ecosystem is critical to the success of NIM Agent Blueprints. Companies like Accenture and Deloitte are embedding these blueprints into their AI solutions, enabling clients to develop custom AI systems rapidly and unlock new business opportunities. Similarly, infrastructure partners such as Cisco, Dell, HPE, and Lenovo are providing the necessary hardware and software platforms to ensure smooth and efficient AI deployments.
As generative AI continues to advance rapidly, NVIDIA’s NIM Agent Blueprints represent a significant step forward in enabling enterprises to build and operationalize AI applications at scale. With a strong support system from global partners, these blueprints offer enterprises a robust framework for staying competitive in the AI-driven future.
Experience NIM Agent Blueprints Today
Enterprises interested in exploring NVIDIA NIM Agent Blueprints can experience these tools today through the NVIDIA AI Enterprise platform, providing them with the opportunity to innovate, scale, and lead in the age of generative AI.
