What are these IQ things that’s been the buzz at #MSBuild:
1. Web IQ - grounds your agent in web data
2. Work IQ - grounds your data in M365 data
3. Fabric IQ - headless access to structured IQ
4. Foundry IQ - agentic retrieval mechanism to get data from unstructured data from places like search indices and SharePoint
With @aycabs and @amrcn_werewolf

What if your apps and agents understood work like people do?
That’s the vision behind Work IQ.
The Work IQ API helps developers build agents that go beyond data—understanding context, intent, and organizational signals.
Preview now. GA starting June 16.
