Microsoft Scout is a new AI personal assistant built on OpenClaw
Summary
Microsoft has launched Scout, an AI-driven personal assistant integrated across Microsoft 365 services like Outlook and Teams. Unlike Copilot, Scout functions as an always-on agent capable of managing calendars, scheduling, travel, and email. By contributing directly to the open-source OpenClaw project, Microsoft aims to provide a proactive assistant that learns user habits while maintaining enterprise-grade security through sandboxing and tools like Defender. The tool is currently in a limited desktop preview for US-based Frontier customers.
