enterprise agents

Microsoft's Work IQ initiative aims to enable agent-first enterprise IT by making AI agents substantially smarter, though deployment raises unresolved questions around cost, governance, data exposure, and operational risk. Widespread agent-first adoption could reshape IT spending patterns and infrastructure demands.

Google's Gemini Enterprise Agent Platform targets IT and technical users rather than general business users for agent building tools. This approach focuses on technical implementation rather than democratized access to AI agent creation.

Adobe launched a new enterprise agent platform to counter AI disruption of its traditional software business model. This strategic pivot demonstrates how established software companies are adapting their offerings to compete with AI-native solutions.
