Microsoft is reportedly testing a new feature for the taskbar in Windows 11 called “Companions.” This feature seems to be aimed at supporting AI agents, though details on its functionality remain unclear at this stage. The initial references to “Companions” were detected in Build 26454 of Windows Server, and they have also surfaced in beta versions of Windows 11.
The introduction of this feature aligns with Microsoft’s ongoing efforts to enhance AI integration within Windows. It could potentially serve as a personalized AI assistant, building on the foundation laid by previous features such as Copilot. “Companions” may be highlighted in the upcoming 25H2 update, expected to be released in the autumn.
While Microsoft has yet to provide specific details about the function of Companions, the name suggests a more interactive and supportive AI experience is on the horizon.
