AI is entering its next chapter. We are moving past tools that simply answer questions and into systems that actually move work forward. The goal is no longer just generating content; it’s planning, acting, and operating across the apps and documents you use every day.
But there’s a problem. Most AI agents today still rely on the cloud, external APIs, and black box execution. That’s a tough fit for real workplace conditions, where sensitive data, proprietary workflows, and compliance requirements are the norm.
That’s where Cephable AI Workflows come in.
Today, we’re introducing Cephable AI Workflows, starting exclusively on Intel® Core™ Ultra Series 3 based PCs. Describe a goal, and your on‑device AI agent plans the steps, executes them across your apps, and shows you exactly what it’s doing along the way. Everything runs locally. The NPU, GPU, and CPU on your Intel® Core™ Ultra Series 3 based PC do the work — and your data stays on your machine.
Your Agent. Your Device. Your Data.
Most AI today acts like a consultant, it gives you advice but leaves the execution to you. You remain the “middleman,” manually moving data between a chatbot and your actual apps. With Cephable Workflows, you describe what you want to accomplish, and your on‑device AI agent handles the rest. It plans the steps, executes them across your desktop apps, browser, email, and documents, and shows you exactly what it’s doing along the way.
Nothing happens behind the scenes. You can follow each step as it runs, pause at any point, or step in when needed. Before a workflow ever starts, you can even define the boundaries: apps it can access, sites it can use, and actions are in scope.
- Execution, Not Just Drafts: Cephable Workflows break your goal into steps and executes them across your local environment.
- Radical Transparency: You see every click and decision in real-time. You can follow along, pause, or step in at any point.
- Hard Boundaries: You define the scope and can create custom actions that workflows cannot perform, before it starts.
Cephable Workflows shift from a tool that gives you a “to-do” list to a partner that actually helps you cross items off.
Bridging the “Confidence Gap”
There’s no shortage of AI tools that can suggest next steps or draft a paragraph. What’s been missing is AI that can reliably carry work across the finish line, especially in environments where data sensitivity, compliance, and trust matter. Research from Deloitte shows that while adoption is poised to skyrocket, only 23% of organizations are currently using agent-based AI.
The issue with larger adoption isn’t a lack of interest, it’s the security barrier. For the other 77% of users, the risk of sending sensitive work, personal context, or proprietary documents to the cloud could be a dealbreaker that is holding them back from deployment.
Cephable Workflows change that dynamic. By keeping planning, reasoning, and execution on the device, teams can begin using agentic AI for real work not just experimentation.
The Power of the NPU
Intel® Core™ Ultra Series 3 based PCs are designed for this next era of AI at work. With a dedicated Neural Processing Unit (NPU) working alongside the CPU and GPU, these systems are built to handle AI workloads efficiently, locally, and at scale.
Cephable AI Workflows are designed to take full advantage of that architecture. By running planning, reasoning, and execution directly on the NPU, CPU, and GPU, Workflows deliver fast, responsive automation without relying on cloud connectivity or external services.
The result is AI that’s always available, power‑efficient, and private by design, using the hardware people and organizations already trust, and unlocking what it was built to do.
