Why embedding agents in existing tools beats rolling out yet another AI platform for employees.
The short answer
The fastest AI adoption comes from embedding agents in tools people already use—Teams, Slack, email—rather than asking them to learn a new app.
Key takeaways
Every new tool competes for attention. Most get abandoned within months.
Agents in chat need no new login, training or habit.
Give direction in Teams or Slack, get finished work back for approval—the core idea behind Switch.
Owners may use one; everyday users don't need to.
Chat apps already work on mobile, so agents do too.
