Microsoft Taps Anthropic for Copilot Cowork in Push for AI Agents
Copilot Cowork uses Anthropic’s Claude model to automate multi-step tasks in Microsoft 365, piloted as a research preview before wider release in March, with 90% of Fortune 500 using Copilot.
- On Monday, Microsoft unveiled Copilot Cowork, a new Copilot feature built in close collaboration with Anthropic as part of its Wave 3 update.
- Amid growing competition, Microsoft shifted from relying solely on OpenAI to a multi-model approach, deepening ties with Anthropic amid investor concern and a more than 14% share decline.
- Agent 365 will be generally available from May 1 at $15 per user per month, and Microsoft 365 E7 Frontier Worker Suite will cost $99 per user per month, below the $117 separate components price.
- This month, Copilot Cowork is piloted with select customers and will be offered as a research preview to early-access users, while Microsoft reported visibility into more than 500,000 agents and tens of millions in the Agent 365 registry.
- Unlike Anthropic's local-only Claude Cowork, Microsoft runs Copilot Cowork in customers' Microsoft 365 tenants with data protections and Work IQ integration, while also making Claude Sonnet models available across Copilot.
