Work IQ: Data, Context, and Tools at Scale
Microsoft's Work IQ exposes Copilot's internal intelligence as data, context, skills, and tools APIs callable from agents on any platform.
“Most AI tools see a single artifact in isolation. Work IQ sees the web around it.”
Microsoft introduced Work IQ at Build as an intelligence layer for agents that surfaces relationships between documents, people, processes, and business data through data, context, skills, and tools APIs. It is multimodel under the hood and callable from agents on any platform, letting developers invoke the same intelligence Copilot uses internally. This matters because it positions Microsoft's context graph as reusable infrastructure for third-party agent builders, not just Copilot.
