What's new from the EuroWork development team in weeks 32 and 33

Two intense weeks in the workshop, and the common thread is the same as always: more usefulness, full transparency, no surprises. Here’s the most important stuff, without any tech jargon.

Ask the chat about your calendar, inbox, and files

The biggest news first. If you’ve connected your Microsoft 365 account (under Settings, Connections), you can now just ask straight out in the regular chat: what meetings did I have this summer, what are the latest emails from Fredrik, what does the quote on SharePoint say. The service understands when your question needs the calendar, inbox, or files, fetches the information, and answers with the source clearly shown.

If you want to dive deeper into a specific email, just point to it: "read the whole email from X about Y and summarise it". The rule is otherwise subject lines and preview text, whole emails are only read when you explicitly ask for it.

Everything is built with the same caution as the rest of the service: the connection is personal and voluntary, it can only read (never write or send on your behalf), every read is logged in the audit log, and you can disconnect anytime. Our policy has its own section explaining exactly what is fetched and when.

Presentations in your own style

Download a document or an answer as a PowerPoint, and it now builds a proper presentation: title slide, agenda, bullet points with sub-bullets, numbered slides, and tables, not just a text transcript on slide after slide.

And here’s the nice touch: your administrator can upload your organisation’s own PowerPoint template under Administration, Content & knowledge. Then every downloaded presentation is drawn in your colours and fonts, and an uploaded logo is placed on the first and last slide. We never save the template file itself, just the colours and fonts from it. The presentation looks like yours, not like ours.

The AI colleague speaks up on its own, just enough

The AI colleague (what used to be called Missions) has been given a sense of when to reach out. If it sees that a task has been idle, that a delivery is waiting for review, or that a run didn’t go well, it suggests an action, at most once a day, and a no means no: rejected suggestions don’t come back. Every week, the runs are summarised in a weekly report, and every run leaves, as usual, a receipt of what was done and what it cost.

Tell us directly in the service

The customer service chat in the bottom right now has three buttons for logged-in users: Ask, Suggest a feature, and Report a bug. Suggestions and bug reports go straight to the team building the service, no AI in between, and several of the improvements in this post started exactly that way. Keep them coming.

Will your profession be replaced by AI?

We’ve built a completely new public part of the site: 133 professions with research-based figures on how AI-exposed each one is, from actuaries at the top to dancers at the bottom, searchable in your language. Each profession has its own page explaining what the number means, and most importantly what it doesn’t mean: exposed is not replaced. You’ll find them via Professions in the footer, and the glossary has at the same time grown with terms like shadow AI, the AI Act, and training data.

Small but useful things

The application has moved to Frankfurt and now lives in the same data centre region as the database, which both shortens response times and makes our EU story even simpler: everything in one place, openly declared. Page changes in the service are faster. The mobile view has the writing area where your thumbs are. Blog posts now have images, an author box, and a footnote that honestly says the texts are AI-translated from Swedish. And all files you download, Word, PDF, PowerPoint, and Excel, now carry the AI task in the file properties, as the EU’s AI Act requires.

For those looking at EuroWork from the outside

Everything above is included in the regular price: one price per member per month, where about half is included AI budget, no credits or tiers. An approved expression of interest gives you two months of free trial for two accounts. And if you’re wondering what your colleagues are already sharing with AI tools you didn’t choose, start by reading about shadow AI in our glossary. It’s the question the whole service is built to answer.
