AT A GLANCE
Key points

- Agents provide recommendations but cannot change the plan independently.
- Execution Graph maps relationships from tasks to strategic goals.
What is changing?
At ENGAGE 2026, Smartsheet announced vsActual, an AI-native strategy and execution platform. It turns goals stored in presentations, budget memos and spreadsheets into a living plan and compares them with current data from different work systems.
vsActual aims to flag budget, schedule and resource problems early, test possible decisions against live capacity data and prepare executive summaries in the background. Smartsheet says agents present recommendations with their reasoning but cannot change the plan on their own. The Execution Graph maps relationships from tasks through strategic goals as a context layer.
The platform can read data from Smartsheet, finance and HR systems, Jira, ServiceNow and other tools. The current official page offers updates for vsActual; broader availability timing and pricing have not yet been disclosed.
