The **Overview** page is tailored to suit your specific environment, role, and business objectives. The sections on your home page display accordingly. The plugin installations and data associated with your instance may affect your experience on the page.

The following sections may appear on your home page based on your instance.

### ServiceNow Otto search box

The ServiceNow Otto search box gives you a place on the home page to begin a conversation with your AI companion.

Use this conversational interface to begin a chat, where you can perform setup, solution building, and question answering tasks.

\[Omitted image "ai-admin-center-lux-home-otto.png"\] Alt text: ServiceNow Otto chat box on the AI Admin Center home page.

Type a request or select a quick action button to initiate a conversation. The ServiceNow Otto panel opens to continue your conversation.

For more information, see [Using the conversational experience in AI Admin Center](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ServiceNow/ServiceNowDocs/australia/markdown/australia/intelligent-experiences/using-now-assist-panel-now-assist-center.md).

### Top actions

The **Top actions** section of the home page displays a series of AI-generated items that represent quick-start use cases. Each use case is tailored to your environment and proposed to help you implement AI adoption, best practices, and administrative setup on the platform.

\[Omitted image "ai-admin-center-lux-home-top-actions.png"\] Alt text: Top actions section of the AI Admin Center home page.

Select an action to begin, and a conversation opens in the ServiceNow Otto panel. In the ServiceNow Otto panel, you can use natural language to have your AI companion implement the use case.

After it is implemented, the use case disappears from the **Top actions** list.

Select **View all** to see your top actions on the AI Solutions page.

For more information, see [Activating actionable use cases from AI Admin Center](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ServiceNow/ServiceNowDocs/australia/markdown/australia/intelligent-experiences/now-assist-center-actionable-use-cases.md).

### Readiness

The **Readiness** section shows the readiness levels of the applications and data quality in your instance based on the readiness assessments performed. Readiness assessments help you to determine whether your organization's instance is ready to implement generative AI and agentic AI features.

\[Omitted image "ai-admin-center-lux-home-readiness.png"\] Alt text: Readiness section of the AI Admin Center home page.

The instance health visualization summarizes the outcome of health checks across your AI applications. The checks look for AI applications that are recommended for installation or might otherwise require a version upgrade, dependency installation, or licensing.

The data quality visualization shows the ratings of the data quality per domain based on a series of assessment checks. Each bar shows the percentage of checks that ranked with a passing score.

Select **View all** to see the AI readiness page with lists for instance health and data quality checks.

For more information, see [Increasing AI readiness in AI Admin Center](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ServiceNow/ServiceNowDocs/australia/markdown/australia/intelligent-experiences/now-assist-center-using-readiness-evaluation.md).

### Automation opportunities

The **Automation opportunities** section shows the most relevant opportunities to automate actions or workflows in your instance using AI. The opportunities appear as actionable cards, each showing the results of an assessment performed by AI Agent Advisor.

\[Omitted image "ai-admin-center-lux-home-opportunities.png"\] Alt text: Automation opportunities section of the AI Admin Center home page.

AI Agent Advisor analyzes your instance data to identify the leading AI opportunities, estimates the potential time and cost savings for each opportunity, and finds the AI agents needed to support the automation.

Select **View all** to see a list of all the opportunities identified by AI Agent Advisor. For more information, see [Using AI Agent Advisor](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ServiceNow/ServiceNowDocs/australia/markdown/australia/intelligent-experiences/using-ai-agent-advisor.md).
