As companies deploy more AI agents, new problems appear:
OpenAI is trying to solve this with a new platform called Frontier.
Think of it as “HR + Operations for AI agents.”
The platform provides a single control interface where organisations can:
• Build or import AI agents
• Give each agent its own identity, permissions, and guardrails
• Share business context, tools, and data across agents
In short, companies can orchestrate an entire workforce of AI agents.
Early users already include companies like Cisco and T‑Mobile, while organisations such as HP Inc., Intuit, and Uber are exploring it with dedicated engineering support.
Interestingly, this comes shortly after Microsoft introduced a similar concept with Agent 365.
It seems the next enterprise software category might be “AI Workforce Management.”
What do you think - will we need a new kind of management layer in the future, not for people, but for machines?
