About this tag
The work iq tag on WindowsForum.com covers Microsoft's Work IQ intelligence layer, which serves as the shared context infrastructure behind Microsoft 365 Copilot and AI agents. Work IQ uses Microsoft Graph data from Teams, Outlook, Office files, meetings, calendars, and business apps to make workplace AI more contextual across an organization. Discussions highlight how Work IQ transforms office data into an operating layer for agents, enabling Copilot to understand the organization before acting. Related threads explore Copilot redesigns, agent features, and workflow automation, all tied to Microsoft's strategy of embedding AI into everyday work rather than treating it as a separate tool.
