Alexa and Cortana May Be Heading to the Office

Voice-activated assistants with artificial intelligence are moving from the home to the office

The next assistant in many offices could be named Alexa or Cortana.

In 2016, Silicon Valley obsessed over how text-based bots in apps like Slack could make employees more efficient, turning complicated tasks or forms into conversational texts. Now, following the success of Amazon Inc.’s Alexa and Alphabet Inc.’s Google Home, people in the technology industry are increasingly thinking about how such voice-activated devices can be made useful in the workplace.

The products aren’t quite ready for office prime time yet. The workplace offers challenges that experts say intelligent assistants built for home use so far haven't effectively met, mostly in the area of voice recognition.

These products meet some office needs with varying degrees of success. Like Alexa and Siri, Cortana can help manage a schedule. It goes a step farther by integrating with a line of Microsoft business apps, such as a suite of data-visualization tools. For example, users can ask Cortana to pull up data and charts to show average customer spending per city.
