Appspace Unveils Innovative AI-Powered Assistants for the Modern Workplace
On February 3, 2026, at ISE 2026 in Barcelona, Appspace introduced a groundbreaking suite of AI assistants, setting a new standard for workplace innovation. As companies strive to enhance the value of artificial intelligence beyond mere chit-chat and static dashboards, Appspace has risen to the occasion with its Intelligence Assistants, specifically designed to meet the demands of real-world work environments.
Bridging Digital and Physical Workspaces
Unlike conventional chatbots or self-contained AI tools, Appspace's Intelligence Assistants operate within a comprehensive platform that includes digital signage, space reservations, intranets, and visitor management systems. This multifaceted approach enables the AI to not only respond to queries but also take tangible actions based on workplace insights gathered across various touchpoints.
The newly launched assistants include the Insights Assistant, which evaluates usage patterns and engagement through the Appspace admin console, and the Search Assistant, which assists employees in navigating company content and connecting with colleagues via skill-based profiles. This functionality amalgamates typically disparate information housed within intranets, documents, and directories into a unified, user-friendly interface.
A Step Beyond Traditional AI
Thomas Philippart de Foy, Chief Design Officer of Appspace, emphasized the innovative nature of these assistants, stating, "Rather than merely adding disjointed AI features, Appspace Intelligence Assistants function on a unified intelligence framework that spans the entire workplace. We designed these tools to facilitate real work and actionable insights instead of merely populating another dashboard."
The AI technology employed by the Assistants is not only state-of-the-art but also tailored for practical workplace duties. It draws from a common intelligence layer that can leverage data across multiple sources such as digital signage, space usage metrics, and the functionality of modern intranets. This interconnectedness allows for seamless integration with other enterprise systems, meaning these assistants can interact with platforms such as ServiceNow for ticket creation or connect with building systems to facilitate real-world tasks.
Unique Advantage in a Competitive Landscape
Appspace's approach differentiates it within the ISE landscape, especially as many competitors focus solely on digital signage capabilities. Philippart de Foy further illustrates this advantage: "While others may propose AI agents exclusive to digital signage, our assistants can discern the interplay between displayed content and audience presence. This linkage between digital media and physical attendance represents the true essence of workplace intelligence."
Moving forward, Appspace has plans to unveil tools that enable organizations to create custom workplace assistants, roll out additional system assistants, and introduce an insights dashboard that showcases distinct user engagement patterns.
Experience the Future of AI at ISE 2026
Attendees of ISE 2026 will have the opportunity to witness the Intelligence Assistants in action alongside Appspace's broader workplace experience platform, which includes integrations with Microsoft Places, from February 3 to 6 in Barcelona at Hall 2, stand 2M220.
