Since launching a month ago, Computer has performed $2.8B+ in labor-equivalent work across our paid subscriber base. 

That work is happening because Computer does the tasks that keep companies moving. It analyzes big data, creates documents and spreadsheets, builds apps and websites, and runs longer workflows in the background. 

We built Computer for the way teams already work: inside their existing workflows and across the 400+ tools they use every day. Last month, we brought Computer to Slack so teams could assign work from the same channels where projects begin. 

Today we’re bringing Computer to Microsoft Teams, where more than 350 million people get work done.

Expanding across the Microsoft ecosystem

Computer for Teams brings our AI agent orchestrator deeper into Microsoft’s product ecosystem. 

Computer already connects to Microsoft tools like Outlook, One Drive, SharePoint, Excel, and Azure DevOps. These integrations let teams bring context into tasks they assign to Computer. 

Computer is currently also in beta as a native side panel in Excel, where analysts can keep working in the model while getting live help from Computer.

Making collaboration easier

Computer in Teams keeps requests, context, and outputs in one place so people can collaborate more easily. When Computer is available where work happens, we’ve seen AI adoption climb. 

For individual work, employees can message Computer directly to draft documents, research a topic, build a prototype, or shape an idea before sharing it more broadly. 

For team work, employees can tag Computer in a shared channel, refine the request together, and review the output in the same thread. The work starts where the conversation is already happening, then stays visible to the people who need it. 

Handling important work big and small

In Teams, Computer can search the web, work across connected tools, generate content, analyze business data, and build reports, presentations, apps, and websites. 

It can also run longer workflows in the background, like preparing a weekly market scan or turning daily customer support activity into Linear tickets.

Ask Computer in Teams to: 

• “Pull the latest budget workbook from Excel, compare it against invoices in SharePoint, flag material variances, and post a summary in Teams.”

• “Review the Dynamics 365 account notes, Outlook meeting history, and the GTM brief in OneDrive, then draft a prep memo for the next enterprise call.”

• “Review the Azure DevOps bug backlog, identify the top recurring issue themes, and post a prioritized triage plan in Teams.”

• “Turn the product launch notes in SharePoint into a short announcement post, a Teams-ready FAQ, and three follow-up email drafts in Outlook.”

• “Review the vendor agreement in Word, compare it against our standard terms in SharePoint, flag risky clauses, and return a redlined version.”

Giving everyone access to what they need

Some of the strongest Computer adoption so far has come from executives. Our data shows that about 92% of C-levels use Computer weekly. 

That makes sense. Executives need answers that cut across teams, tools, and data sources. Computer helps them with questions like “Create an 8-week forecast for the business” that they can ask in Teams without writing SQL or waiting for the data team. 

Through our new data App Connectors, Computer creates a data map that lets approved users query Snowflake, Databricks and other data sources in plain language.  

Working with Computer in Teams

To collaborate on a task in Teams, tag @Computer in a shared channel or group conversation and describe the request in plain language. That works best when a team needs shared visibility or wants to add context before Computer begins. 

For individual work, send Computer a direct message. That’s a better fit for first drafts, quick research, or tasks that need some shaping before they’re ready to be shared.

Teams queries also appear in the Perplexity app. Computer can also access workspace knowledge, read threads, send messages, and work from the business context already captured in Teams.
