As part of the #BuildWithBuildAgent challenge, I used ServiceNow's Build Agent to create a application called Software Asset Optimization, entirely from natural language prompts. Here's a step-by-step walkthrough of how I build and demoed the app on my Personal Developer Instance (PDI).

Step 1: Define the App Concept
I started with a clear goal: Build an application called Software Asset Optimization -Use Software Asset Management (SAM) to track license usage and reclaim unused licenses. -Configure reclamation workflows that automatically notify users with unused software and reassign licenses. -Reduces overspending on software by up to 30% and dashboards.
Step 2: Prompt Build Agent
I used the following prompt:
"Build an application called Software Asset Optimization -Use Software Asset Management (SAM) to track license usage and reclaim unused licenses. -Configure reclamation workflows that automatically notify users with unused software and reassign licenses. -Reduces overspending on software by up to 30%"
Build Agent responded with a fully scoped app:
✅ Real-time license utilization tracking
✅ Compliance monitoring with visual alerts
✅ Cost optimization insights
✅ Automated reclamation workflows
✅ Interactive dashboard with live data
✅ Mobile-responsive design
Your comprehensive Software Asset Management solution is now ready to help you achieve that 30% reduction in software overspending! The dashboard provides all the insights you need to make data-driven decisions about your software licenses.
