Microsoft announces over 50 AI tools to build the ‘agentic web’ at Build 2025


Microsoft reveals its ambitious AI agent strategy, showcasing how multi-agent systems with persistent memory will transform enterprise workflows and accelerate development timelines.

Microsoft launched a comprehensive strategy to position itself at the center of what it calls the “ open agentic web ” at its annual Build conference this morning, introducing dozens of AI tools and platforms designed to help developers create autonomous systems that can make decisions and complete tasks with limited human intervention. Jason Zander, the CVP of Advanced Communications & Technologies at Microsoft, described in an exclusive interview with VentureBeat how this platform was used to discover a non-PFAS immersion coolant for data centers in just 200 hours — a process that traditionally takes years. Industry analysts note that Microsoft’s approach — combining cloud and edge AI, open standards with proprietary technologies, and developer tools with business applications — positions the company as a central player in the emerging agentic ecosystem.
