Interact pushes agentic AI: Spring Launch ships Action Agent and Workday workflows
Interact's feed centers on a real product cycle — a Spring Launch introducing Action Agent and agentic AI capabilities (content moderation, AI Search upgrades, Workday workflows) — alongside a brand-evolution milestone and AI-governance thought-leadership. It reads as an intranet vendor making a concrete agentic-AI move, not just positioning.
Skedda builds a data layer under its booking product with occupancy analytics and multi-venue insights
Skedda is shipping a meaningful stream of analytics and booking-control features. Recent additions include Occupancy Insights (presence data converted into reporting), multi-venue utilization comparison via an Organization Hub, and more granular booking rules (day-specific approvals, hour-precision booking windows). The product is expanding from a scheduling tool to a space intelligence platform.

Interact is building toward an agentic AI platform for the digital workplace, layering action-taking agents and cross-system search onto its intranet and pairing it with a refreshed brand. Expect continued agent and integration releases framed around enterprise AI governance.
Likely next moves expand Action Agent's reach into more enterprise systems beyond Workday and tighten the governance story the AI-gap essay sets up.

Recent additions include Occupancy Insights (presence data converted into reporting), multi-venue utilization comparison via an Organization Hub, and more granular booking rules (day-specific approvals, hour-precision booking windows). The product is expanding from a scheduling tool to a space intelligence platform.
The pattern is consistent: Skedda is layering analytics on top of its booking data to give facilities and HR teams actionable occupancy intelligence, not just a schedule. Each release adds either a new data surface or finer control over booking rules, suggesting the roadmap is building toward dynamic, policy-driven space allocation backed by real utilization data.
Skedda will likely add utilization-informed booking recommendations or automated space reallocation rules — the analytics foundation is now in place to support closing the loop from insight to action.
