Oracle Launches Fusion Claw, an OpenClaw-Inspired Runtime for Its Enterprise AI Apps
In most hospitals, someone has the job of making sure there are enough nurses on every floor for every shift, and on a bad morning, working that out can take the better part of a day. Oracle says its software can now do the same work in minutes and, if the hospital allows it, change […]
Microsoft’s Rebuilt Copilot Is a Bet on How Companies Will Work Next
In 1981, a multinational company that wanted to know what the next financial quarter looked like had to piece the answer together from interoffice memos and faxes, each moving from desk to desk until someone could reconcile the numbers.

Okta Launches Blueprint Alliance to Set Standards for Securing Enterprise AI Agents
Unsanctioned agents. Borrowed credentials. Agents exceeding orders. These are the things that keep enterprise security teams up at night.

That’s why on Wednesday at its annual Oktane conference, the […]

Glean Bets the Enterprise AI Fight Will Be Won on Context
An AI agent that doesn’t know your company burns money trying to prove it. That’s the argument Glean is making as it pitches why context is critical to the success of any enterprise AI program. At its annual customer conference, Glean:GO, in San Francisco this past week, that was the only thing the company wanted […]
Agent Plugins Explained: What the New AI Standard Actually Does
You may think of the agentic world as the Wild West, but over the past two years, technologists have been developing rules of the road. Anthropic’s Model Context Protocol settled how agents access external tools. Google’s Agent2Agent and Cisco-backed AGNTCY took on the question of how agents reach each other.
