Salesforce said on Wednesday, Nov. 4, that more than 185,000 people now use Agentforce Coworker, its AI assistant that takes on business tasks inside the company’s software. Usage has grown 21-fold in three months, according to Salesforce’s announcement. The company also said it is expanding Coworker to Microsoft Teams, mobile and desktop apps, at a list price of $50 per user per month.
Salesforce named The Adecco Group, Fulton Bank and BACA Systems among the companies expanding their use. It did not break out how many of the 185,000 users are paying.
What Agentforce Coworker does
Coworker is Salesforce’s pitch to make its many AI agents easier to use. Instead of choosing among agents, an employee describes a job. Coworker plans the steps, calls the relevant Agentforce agents and workflows, and returns results and suggested actions for review. In Salesforce’s example, a seller asks Coworker to look into a renewal at risk. It gathers the customer’s service history, finds unresolved cases and drafts a follow-up.
“The next era of enterprise AI isn’t about giving users more agents to manage,” said James Nakashima, Salesforce’s senior vice president of product management. “It’s about giving them one Coworker that brings the right agents together to get work done.”
New features include reusable Skills, which turn proven workflows into repeatable steps, and Conversation History, so users can pick up where they left off. Scheduled tasks are “upcoming.” Coworker can also connect to Google Workspace and Microsoft 365, Salesforce said. It works inside a customer’s existing Salesforce permissions, sharing rules and access controls, with approval and audit features for supported actions.
By the numbers
| Metric | Figure |
|---|---|
| Users | More than 185,000 |
| Usage growth | 21x in three months |
| List price | $50 per user per month |
| New surfaces | Microsoft Teams, mobile, desktop |
| Named customers | The Adecco Group, Fulton Bank, BACA Systems |
At list price, 185,000 users would equal about $9.25 million a month, or roughly $111 million a year (TBR calculation: 185,000 × $50 × 12). That is an upper-bound illustration, not reported revenue. Salesforce has not said how many users pay full price, are on trials or come through bundles. The 21-fold figure measures usage, which Salesforce did not define, not paying seats.
Salesforce lists Google Workspace and Microsoft 365 connections, Conversation History, Skills and the per-user, per-month pricing as available now. It says Coworker’s broader expansion becomes generally available in November 2026. The Workspace and 365 links let Coworker combine the email, calendars and files around each account with Salesforce records, so a meeting brief or renewal plan draws on more than the CRM alone.
Fixing the problems agents create
Salesforce paired the Coworker news with updates aimed at known weak spots in AI agents: memory, reliability and cost. A new Agentforce Memory policy roughly doubles the agent’s recall of customer facts and changes, the company wrote. Salesforce also expanded Agent Fabric, its governance layer, with “Agent Evals” and “API Evals” tests and cost controls designed to catch failures and cap AI spending.
Why it matters
Salesforce has spent the past year arguing that AI agents will reshape how customer-relationship software is sold, and investors have watched for evidence of adoption. A per-user price and a user count give the first public yardstick for Coworker. It is still company-reported, without paid-seat or revenue detail, and Salesforce’s next earnings report will offer a fuller picture. Meanwhile, rivals are pitching similar “one agent that coordinates the rest” products, including the new Perplexity Teammates.
