Jarvis vs Moveworks: the 2026 buyer's guide (with disclosure)

ServiceNow closed its $2.85B Moveworks acquisition on December 15, 2025. Moveworks now sells as the AI Agents layer inside the ServiceNow platform. Jarvis is our product. A Jarvis vs Moveworks side-by-side for buyers weighing both, with citations and pricing on both columns.

Editor's verdict

If you are already a ServiceNow shop with ITSM as your biggest employee-experience pain, Moveworks (now ServiceNow AI Agents) is the shorter path: integration is now native, and the logo wall behind the product is unmatched in the category. If you are not a ServiceNow shop, want MCP-native connectivity, need multi-LLM choice, or are a mid-market organisation priced out of Moveworks' six-figure floor, Jarvis is the comparison we recommend you run. Both products solve adjacent problems with different centres of gravity.

Disclosure, stated plainly

Jarvis AI is our product. ASCENDING Inc., the company that publishes Explore Agentic, builds Jarvis. We have tried to write this page the way we would want competitors to write theirs: honest about where we win, honest about where we lose, with public sources on both columns. If you think the balance is off, write in. We update pages rather than defending them.

What each product actually is in April 2026

Moveworks is now a ServiceNow product. The $2.85B deal closed December 15, 2025 [1]. At its core: an employee-assistance platform with deep ITSM roots. Triage, resolution, ticket creation, all end to end. The post-acquisition pitch is that the Moveworks agent layer is now native inside any ServiceNow workflow. The customer page lists 350+ organisations and 10% of the Fortune 500. Named logos: Hearst, Instacart, Palo Alto Networks, Siemens, Toyota, Unilever. In February 2026, Moveworks GovCloud cleared FedRAMP Moderate on AWS GovCloud (US) [2].

Jarvis is an agent platform and MCP gateway listed on AWS Marketplace and Azure Marketplace as "Jarvis: Simplifying AI Adoption" by seller ASCENDING Inc. at $1,500 / $2,800 / custom per month across three tiers [3]. The product has three parts: a Governed AI Layer (PII/DLP, RBAC, SSO, audit logs, LLM routing), Jarvis Chat (multi-LLM enterprise chat with RAG and embed-anywhere), and Jarvis Registry (MCP gateway connecting Claude, Copilot, Cursor, Windsurf, ChatGPT and Jarvis Chat to Jira, Confluence, Slack, Google Workspace, PostgreSQL, Snowflake, AWS, GitHub, Atlassian, Databricks, Salesforce). The pitch: governance, multi-LLM, and MCP are primitives, not add-ons.

Where Moveworks wins

Three categories, plainly:

  • ITSM depth. Moveworks was built for IT and HR service management. If your single biggest employee-experience pain is ticket volume in ServiceNow, Moveworks is now native to the workflow. Jarvis can cover the same ground via MCP + ServiceNow connectors, but it is a platform-first product, not an ITSM-first product.
  • Logo wall and analyst coverage. Moveworks has a decade of Fortune 500 customer logos (Hearst, Instacart, Palo Alto Networks, Siemens, Toyota, Unilever) and 5.5 million covered employees per its customer page. Jarvis is newer, our logo wall is narrower, and we have not chased analyst quadrant placement.
  • ServiceNow-native integration and federal footprint. If procurement has said "add to the ServiceNow renewal or don't buy it," Moveworks / ServiceNow AI Agents clears faster than Jarvis. Moveworks' February 25, 2026 FedRAMP Moderate authorisation [2] also puts it ahead for federal workloads. We would rather you get the deployment than stall on our product.

Where Jarvis wins

Three categories where we have the stronger story:

  • MCP-native gateway. Jarvis Registry is a first-class MCP gateway in GA. Moveworks has an MCP explainer on its blog [4] and selective support in its agent builder, but the product was built on closed connectors pre-acquisition. If your architecture bet is that MCP (released by Anthropic on November 25, 2024 [5] and donated to the Linux Foundation on December 9, 2025) becomes the interoperability layer for enterprise AI (ours is), Jarvis is already shipped. See our MCP pillar for the long version.
  • Multi-LLM and cloud-neutral. Jarvis routes across OpenAI, Anthropic, AWS Bedrock, Google Gemini, and DeepSeek. Moveworks' alignment with ServiceNow's model strategy narrows that surface. Procurement teams that have rejected Azure-locked Copilot or Gemini-only Agentspace bring the same critique to ServiceNow's stack. Cloud-neutral is the default for Jarvis.
  • Transparent mid-market pricing. Our AWS Marketplace and Azure Marketplace listings are public: Basic $1,500/mo, Pro $2,800/mo, Enterprise custom [3]. All flat-fee regardless of seat count. Third-party data on Moveworks reports $100–$200 per user per year with annual contract values from $150K to $1M+ depending on headcount [6]. ServiceNow's separate AI pricing is tiered and quote-based, with Pro Plus and Enterprise Plus commanding 25-40% premiums over standard Pro [7]. For mid-market organisations without a seven-figure platform budget, that price gap is the entire evaluation.

Frequently asked

  1. How does Jarvis vs Moveworks pricing compare in 2026?
    Jarvis publishes monthly tiers on AWS and Azure Marketplace: $1,500 Basic (Chat or Registry), $2,800 Pro (Chat + Registry), Enterprise custom [3]. All flat-fee regardless of seat count. Moveworks does not publish list. Third-party procurement data puts typical ACVs between $150K and $1M+ [6]. If you are mid-market, that gap is the entire evaluation.
  2. Should I pick Jarvis or Moveworks if I already run ServiceNow?
    Moveworks. After the December 15, 2025 acquisition close [1], ServiceNow-native integration is the shortest path. ServiceNow is your system of record. ITSM is your primary pain. Path-of-least-resistance wins, no close second.
  3. Should I pick Jarvis or Moveworks if MCP is on my roadmap?
    Jarvis. Jarvis Registry is a first-class MCP gateway in GA today. Moveworks has an MCP explainer and selective support [4]. The product was built on closed connectors, and the ServiceNow-led roadmap has not changed that.
  4. Is Jarvis FedRAMP authorized?
    No, as of April 2026. Moveworks GovCloud cleared FedRAMP Moderate on February 25, 2026 [2]. For federal workloads that need FedRAMP Moderate today, Moveworks has the shorter path. That gap closes when we get the authorization; it has not closed yet.
  5. Can Jarvis be deployed privately in my AWS VPC?
    Yes. Jarvis offers private AWS deployment for regulated workloads. Moveworks is SaaS-only (with GovCloud for public sector). If the security model requires data inside a customer-controlled VPC, Jarvis is the architectural match and Moveworks is not.
  6. How much does ServiceNow AI Agents cost?
    ServiceNow does not publish AI Agents pricing. The tiered model places AI agent capabilities behind Pro Plus or Enterprise Plus SKUs, at a 25-40% premium over standard Pro [7]. The exact number depends on the ServiceNow paper you already hold.
