## Introduction
14-
15-
With Mendix's agentic capabilities, you can build AI-powered features into your applications using leading AI models and your own data.
16-
17-
Mendix supports a variety of agentic and generative AI capabilities that you can integrate into your applications. Some typical use cases include the following:
18-
19-
* Create AI agents that autonomously interact with your Mendix app's data, logic, and external systems.
20-
* Build conversational UIs with human-in-the-loop controls and embed AI-powered interactions directly into your Mendix applications.
21-
* Connect application data and enterprise knowledge bases to provide grounded, context-aware AI responses.
