The workflow is the product: Copilot Cowork plugins change what AI can do for businesses

Microsoft Copilot Cowork, now globally available, is designed to handle complex, multi-step business processes that span various systems and tools. It is built with enterprise-grade security and compliance, grounding its operations in your business data. Cowork's effectiveness is enhanced by its ability to integrate with existing team systems through plugins. These plugins leverage Skills, which are repeatable instructions, and Connectors, which provide secure access to your systems. Partners are extending Cowork's capabilities across finance, professional services, market research, enterprise system actions, and content creation. Financial partners like S&P Global Energy, LSEG, Morningstar, Moody's, and Money Forward bring market and financial intelligence. For professional services, Box facilitates meeting preparation, while Harvey offers specialized legal intelligence. Market and competitive research is enhanced by upcoming plugins from CB Insights and Statista. Cowork can also act directly within enterprise systems like monday.com and SAP via enosix. For output, Adobe, Canva, Miro, and Templafy will transform Cowork's results into shareable formats. All Cowork actions are governed by Microsoft 365's security and compliance features, including Purview. This launch is the beginning, with more plugins expected to expand Cowork's end-to-end task completion capabilities.
