Today on the Salesforce Admins Podcast, we talk to Parth Sevak, Director of Technology and Principal Architect at Incepta. Join us as we chat about how Parth built a multi-agent system designed to connect surplus food with the people and organizations that need it the most and won the Agentforce for Good Grand Prize at the TDX Hackathon. You should subscribe for the full episode, but here are a few takeaways from our conversation with Parth Sevak. The Hackathon project focused on reducing food waste If you listened to last week's episode with Alexandra Iyer, you know that Agentforce for Good was a popular problem at this year's Agentforce Hackathon at TDX. Contestants took on big issues like nonprofit volunteer coordination and disaster relief. That's why I was so excited to sit down with Parth Sevak, whose project Harvest Bridge won the Agentforce for Good Grand Prize. Harvest Bridge is a multi-agent application that connects food donors with organizations near them. As Parth explains, food waste is a serious problem. According to the UN's World Food Programme, about 318 million people are facing acute hunger today. "In North America, 30-40% of the food that is produced never gets eaten," he says. So he decided that this would be the perfect problem to tackle for the Agentforce Hackathon at TDX. Simple integrations and out-of-the-box tools Under the hood, Harvest Bridge features multi-agent coordination between four agents to handle donor intake, food matching, volunteer logistics, and reporting analytics. While it sounds incredibly complicated, Parth is quick to point out that 80% of the work was done in configuration with out-of-the-box admin tools. Parth needed to write some Apex to do specific things like geo-matching, which he vibe-coded with the Claude plugin for Agentforce. Crucially, he didn't have to write glue code to make everything work between Agentforce, Data 360, automations he built in Salesforce, Slack, and Tableau. "All of it just worked like a charm," he says, "five years ago, that integration story would have been months, if not years." How to get started building Agentforce solutions In just a few days, Parth was able to build an autonomous, multi-agent system that uses Agentforce, Data 360, Slack, and Tableau to match surplus food with local organizations and coordinate delivery in under 90 minutes. If you're looking to get started with Agentforce, Parth recommends jumping on Trailhead as your first step. The Agentforce Specialist certification gives you the tools you need to start building, and then it's all about getting your hands dirty.

Drawing from a challenge that impacts millions globally, Parth built HarvestBridge, which is a multi-agent system designed to connect surplus food with the people and organizations that need it most. Now, this was part of the TDX26 Hackathon Challenge and what makes this conversation the most compelling isn't just the technology, it's how admins and architects can really orchestrate data automation, AI agents and human coordination together without months of integration work. We also get into what it means to design a trustworthy system where humans stay in control while AI handles scale and speed. So, if you've ever been wondering about how Agentforce changes the role of the Salesforce admin from builder to system orchestrator, this episode's for you. Be sure to subscribe, share the episode with your team, your friends, your local Salesforce admin user group and let us know what kind of real world problems you'd solve with Agentforce. But for now, we're going to get Parth on the podcast. So, Parth, welcome to the podcast. Parth Sevak: Thanks, Mike. Really glad to be here. Mike: Well, I'm glad to have you. So, if everything shakes out, the episode before this will be the episode with the Agentforce for Good People, but sometimes scheduling is what it is. But I was at TDX this year and we had Hackathon winners and you were part of the Agentforce Hackathon. And so, that's how I got connected with you. But I think before we get into that, I'd love to know a little bit about how you got started in the ...
