Microsoft releases Copilot, built on Claude Cowork, to expand its enterprise agent business.

CoinFeed reported on March 9th that Microsoft (MSFT.O) released Copilot Cowork on Monday, built upon the Claude Cowork product. Claude Cowork has garnered attention in Silicon Valley for its ability to handle complex tasks with minimal human supervision. Microsoft is betting that its long-standing relationships with enterprise customers and its emphasis on security and data control will help win over enterprise clients interested in AI agents but concerned about security. Jared Spataro, who heads Microsoft's "AI at Work" business, stated, "We only run in the cloud environment and only work on behalf of users. Therefore, you can know exactly what information it (Copilot Cowork) can access."
