All of the major AI providers want you to use, and ideally stay within, their super apps, and now Microsoft is looking to capture that attention, too.
During an earnings call this week, CEO Satya Nadella confirmed that the tech giant is building a Copilot ‘super app' that will be rolled out this quarter. The new platform will bring together various Copilot tools, including chat, Cowork, long-running Autopilot agents, and the always-on Microsoft Scout, powered by OpenClaw.
Microsoft said the super app will be wired into many of its other governance platforms, including Agent 365, IT Ops, SecOps, FinOps, and business processes. And, it said, CRM and ERP systems will "serve as skills and plug-ins that go into core work."

Modal Labs emphasized that its own infrastructure was not compromised and that the security isolation worked as intended.
OpenAI declined to comment on the Modal case, but referred to a recent update in which the company confirmed that the tested AI agent managed to gain access to four accounts across four separate services. The company has not named the services.
