Questions
About the log
What is the AI feature log?
A list of new features that AI vendors have announced for their business products and agents, newest first. Each entry gives the product, the feature, the date the vendor gives, a short description of what it does, and a link to the vendor's own source.
Is this a recommendation?
No. It's a log of what vendors have announced, described in their own terms. Being listed doesn't mean a feature is suitable for your organisation, and Softwired doesn't endorse any product here. Check the vendor's documentation and your own policies before you turn anything on.
Where do the entries come from?
Every entry cites the vendor's own release notes, changelog or announcement, checked on the day it was logged. We don't use third-party coverage. Some vendors publish a single release-notes page, so the link may go to that page rather than to the individual feature.
What does the date mean?
It's the date the vendor's source gives for the announcement, shown as "Announced". Where the vendor gives only a month, we show the month. Entries the vendor hasn't dated are held back until a date is published. Rollouts often take weeks, so a feature may reach your tenant later than the date shown.
How often is the log updated?
Monthly, on the first Monday of each month. We scan each vendor's release notes, add entries from the past month, and review them before they appear here.
Which products are covered?
Microsoft 365 Copilot and Copilot Studio, ChatGPT Business and Enterprise (including dots and Work), Gemini in Google Workspace and Gemini Enterprise, Claude Team and Enterprise (including Cowork and Duet), Grok and Grok Bot, and GitHub Copilot.
Can I use the data?
Yes. The data is published under CC BY 4.0, so you can reuse it for any purpose with credit to the Softwired AI feature log and the date you accessed it. Download the current log as CSV (public fields only, refreshed with each monthly update).
