Xactly Named AI Excellence Award Winner for Sales Performance AI

Los Gatos, California, March 2026 - Today Xactly announced it has been named a winner in the 2026 Artificial Intelligence Excellence Awards, in the Product category for Sales Performance AI. Presented by the Business Intelligence Group, the award recognizes organizations, products, teams, and individuals that are applying artificial intelligence in ways that drive real, measurable impact.

The 2026 Artificial Intelligence Excellence Awards honor achievement across a broad range of industries and use cases, spotlighting the companies and leaders moving AI beyond experimentation and into practical, accountable deployment. This year's program recognized winners across 36 industries and more than 15 countries.

Xactly was recognized for its first to market AI Agents for Sales Performance Management (SPM) which are natively deployed through Xactly's Intelligent Revenue Platform to automate complex incentive workflows and deliver proactive revenue intelligence. These agents utilize two decades of proprietary pay and performance data to provide autonomous task completion and proactive insights. Through this work, the company has helped organizations transition into proactive Sales Performance Orchestration. By deploying AI Agents that autonomously execute repetitive tasks and surface critical insights, customers have achieved significant gains in operational efficiency, increased go-to-market agility, and stronger seller motivation through transparent, real-time commission visibility.

"AI has arrived! 2026 is about execution, accountability, and results," said Russ Fordyce, Chief Recognition Officer, Business Intelligence Group. "Xactly stood out because its work in Sales Performance AI reflects where the market is headed: practical AI that solves real problems, earns trust, and delivers measurable value. This recognition highlights a team that is not just participating in the AI shift, but helping define what meaningful progress looks like."

"This award reflects the talent of our team, the trust of our customers, and our commitment to building AI solutions that create real outcomes, not just headlines. We believe the future of AI belongs to organizations that can pair innovation with responsibility, and we are proud to be part of that movement."

The Artificial Intelligence Excellence Awards celebrate the people and organizations leading the next phase of AI adoption, where innovation is judged not just by novelty, but by impact.
