Features of 'Money Forward AI Cowork'
- Multiple AI agents collaborate to complete tasks via natural language
Even with vague instructions like 'Process this month's accounting tasks,' the AI highly interprets the user's intent. Multiple AI agents can work in parallel and autonomously to complete tasks such as issuing invoices, requesting payments, reconciling deposits, and forecasting cash flows. Users can also select which AI agents to use themselves.
- Open design where the optimal AI agent executes the task
In addition to the 'Money Forward AI Agent' developed and provided by the company, users can combine AI agents provided by development partners or their own custom 'My Agents'. An orchestrator agent understands the intent from the user's instructions and can distribute tasks to multiple AI agents.
- UX optimized for business use
In addition to the chat format, it adopts a UX that maximizes business efficiency, such as allowing routine tasks to be started immediately by selecting them from an 'Agent List'. It also features a push-type function where AI agents propose 'tasks to do now' and an AI help desk function that answers internal knowledge queries.
- Enterprise-level governance functions
Equipped with a 'Guardrail function' to ensure the AI always operates according to correct company rules. It also has a governance system built so that medium and enterprise companies can implement it with peace of mind, featuring a 'Draft & Approve' process where humans review and approve drafts created by AI, as well as AI audit logs.
- Advanced integration with 'Money Forward Cloud'
