Workday completed its acquisition of Sana for approximately $1.1 billion in cash and stock, closing on November 4 2025.

Sana, founded in 2016, has built an AI‑first learning and knowledge‑management platform that serves more than one million users worldwide. Its flagship products, Sana Learn and Sana Agents, provide no‑code AI agents that automate tasks and deliver contextual knowledge.

By integrating Sana’s horizontal intelligence layer into its unified cloud platform, Workday will offer a single, AI‑powered interface that unifies data, workflows, and actions across its people, finance, and operations applications. The move positions Workday as a comprehensive AI platform for managing people, money, and agents.

Workday’s fiscal‑year 2024 revenue reached $7.3 billion, up 17% from fiscal 2023, while Q3 FY2025 subscription revenue was $1.959 billion, a 16% increase. The company expects subscription revenue of about $8.8 billion for fiscal 2026, reflecting continued growth and the anticipated impact of the Sana integration.

The combined learning suite and agent‑driven experience are slated to launch in the first quarter of 2026, after Workday completes the integration of Sana’s technology into its platform.
