Microsoft's VP highlights that productivity gains from AI are hindered by the "toggle tax," where people still manually bridge between software applications. The transformation requires redesigning workflows and evolving SaaS platforms into operating systems for AI agents to reduce manual work and boost business outcomes.

This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of Enterprise Software.

◆ ◆ The Wire takeaway

You need to rethink SaaS as the operating system for AI agents, not just a tool users toggle through. Start redesigning workflows now where multiple apps meet to cut the toggle tax and unlock real AI productivity gains.
