Welcome to ITPro’s coverage of Dreamforce 2026. We’re live on the ground at the Moscone Center in San Francisco today for the annual Salesforce conference, and we’ve got a very busy week ahead of us.

This week we can expect to hear all the news and updates on products spanning the whole Salesforce ecosystem, with a big focus on AI agents.

One particular trailblazer has answered over 82,000 questions for the Salesforce community. Bonkers numbers.

We're minutes out from the keynote now, and Matthew McConaughey is on screen hyping up the Salesforce 'Trailblazers' on the 20th anniversary. Some 93 million spanning across the globe.

Not long until the keynote kicks off here at Dreamforce, and we have the customary Akaka family blessing.

The mascots, as always, are very popular in the keynote theatre. Brandy the Fox with a queue of attendees taking selfies.

Elsewhere today, Salesforce unveiled Koa, a new dedicated CRM reasoning model built in collaboration with Nvidia using the chipmaker’s open weight Nemotron model family.

Salesforce has described this as a “game changer” for enterprises, so expect to hear a lot about this in Benioff’s keynote.

The opening keynote with CEO Marc Benioff will begin at 10am PST (6pm UK), but we’ve already had some big announcements from the company ahead of the Salesforce chief’s comments.

Indeed, Salesforce has today unveiled AIforce, a new ‘live interface layer’ designed to help enterprises “break free” from the traditional user interface.

AIforce is designed to help enterprises streamline access to data across the Salesforce product estate for agents, allowing users to build their own custom UI’s and bolster ease of use when it comes to third-party agents.
