KnowledgeSense Expands ChatSense with Microsoft Edge Compatibility

The company KnowledgeSense, headquartered in Minato, Tokyo and led by CEO Atsushi Kadokawa, has recently shared exciting news regarding its corporate AI agent, ChatSense. The firm is set to roll out a version of its browser automation agent feature, known as 'Cowork', specifically for Microsoft Edge. This move aims to provide users with a secure and efficient tool for browser operations, accommodating a growing need among corporate clients.

What is 'Cowork'?

The 'Cowork' feature in ChatSense allows users to automate various actions within a web browser simply by issuing commands to the AI. This autonomous AI solution is designed for businesses, enabling smoother handling of multiple tools and applications across different platforms. Businesses interested in beta testing this feature can reach out directly through this contact page.

Clients can take advantage of a subscription model, allowing access from just one user for a single month. Current users of ChatSense should contact their sales representatives for more details.

Background of the Release

As the demand for efficiency and enhanced service quality grows, many businesses are adopting generative AI technologies like ChatGPT. KnowledgeSense's ChatSense has gained significant attention for its strong security features and the ability to incorporate internal data for improved learning, leading to adoption by over 500 corporations, including companies listed on the Tokyo Stock Exchange.

In enterprise environments, Microsoft 365 is commonly employed, with many organizations standardizing on Microsoft Edge as their primary browser. However, the previous limitations of Cowork regarding browser selection have been a concern for organizations wishing to maintain Edge as their standard browser without introducing additional browsers. Many users expressed a desire for a solution that aligns with their preset IT management processes, where additional browsing tools are typically challenging to implement.

To address this feedback, KnowledgeSense has decided to integrate Microsoft Edge compatibility into Cowork, allowing these companies to leverage browser automation without needing to adopt a new browser environment.

Features of the Upcoming Microsoft Edge Version

1. Direct Use in Microsoft Edge

Businesses using Microsoft Edge as their default browser can seamlessly access Cowork without the need to integrate additional browsers. This helps ease the IT approval and implementation process, facilitating smoother deployment of the AI automation tool.

2. Strong Compatibility with Microsoft 365

Organizations can rely on Cowork to automate tasks within familiar Microsoft 365 services, including SharePoint, Outlook, and Excel Online. Cowork will work efficiently within the existing Edge environment, maintaining single sign-on and existing sessions to enhance cross-system automation.

3. Enterprise-Grade Security

The Edge version of Cowork will maintain the same enterprise security measures as before. Automation can only occur on approved sites, and the AI will notify users for final confirmation if it identifies any potentially high-risk actions—ensuring that organizations can adopt AI in a secure manner consistent with their security policies.
