The survey of 639 senior enterprise AI leaders found that 93% report improved production capability in 2026, up from 88% in 2025.
In 2025, Domino's research first identified that enterprises were struggling to generate ROI on their AI investments.
A closer look at agentic governance shows almost as many organisations are running agentic AI without governance as are running it with governance in place:43% of organisations have agentic AI running in governed production.
Governance maturity is the clearest dividing line between the two groups:Among organisations whose governance is fully keeping pace with their AI activity, 67.5% have agentic AI running in governed production.
Among organisations with fully integrated AI governance, 75% report significantly improved AIdelivery velocity, more than three times the rate among organisations where governance is falling behind (23%).
