An AI Assistant That Doesn’t Wait to Be Prompted—It Runs Automatically When It’s Time: When Intelligent Agents Integrate Seamlessly into Approval and Messaging Flows
*Monday, 9:30 a.m. · At your desk*
Goodbye to manual follow-ups—great AI takes initiative and gets things done
In the past, driving cross-departmental approvals was exhausting—every handoff relied entirely on human nudges and reminders.
“Tiantian, could you please check that budget approval?”
“Director Wang, the process has reached your step—please approve it when you get a chance!”
Product manager Li Tiantian spent half her day just chasing others—and being chased. With launch deadlines looming, workflows stalled endlessly inside chat windows. All materials were ready—but nothing moved forward.
Now, consider inviting this “digital colleague embedded directly into your workflows” into the Lark ecosystem.
Once third-party intelligent work agents integrate with Lark, you can quickly summon them via Lark messages to help organize approval context, generate task summaries, or sync key progress updates—making AI your reliable workflow collaborator. No more staring anxiously at progress bars. Those tedious handoffs? AI handles them clearly and precisely for you.
When a workflow reaches a specific node, you can one-click invoke a third-party intelligent work agent directly from a Lark message to rapidly consolidate approval background, extract critical conclusions, or draft communication talking points based on existing documents—all actions initiated by you, with final outputs confirmed and sent by you.
Previously, people pushed workflows forward; now, workflows carry AI along with them. Instead of searching everywhere for the right person, tasks proactively come to you—you only need to focus on the most critical business decisions, right inside Lark.
Wherever the workflow goes, AI follows—and acts.
Ask Your Multi-Dimensional Tables Anything—Like You’re Chatting With a Colleague
The workflow runs smoothly—so how do you make sense of the data it leaves behind?
In the past, navigating dense multi-dimensional tables felt like searching for a needle in a haystack. Adding filters, building custom views, manually scanning rows line-by-line—Li Tiantian once spent an entire morning squinting at her screen, scrolling through dozens of parallel project timelines just to untangle their status. Her eyes ached, and she barely made headway.
Now, we’re transforming “viewing tables” into “asking questions about projects.”
Inside Lark, you can ask intelligent work agents questions exactly as if chatting with a colleague—no complex filter logic required. Just plain, natural language:
- “Please list all projects delayed this week.”
- “What are the core bottlenecks for Project A? Which background document is associated with them?”
- “If Project B launches next week, what potential risks exist right now?”
Upon receiving your instruction, the AI-powered office tool—within the scope of your authorization—accesses designated content in Lark’s multi-dimensional tables or documents to help you synthesize information, distill key points, or draft initial versions. Final judgment and decision-making authority remain fully in your hands. Not only does it clarify your progress checklist, but it also pinpoints operational bottlenecks with precision—and even models potential risks by analyzing contextual relationships.
No more manually scrolling through tables hunting for clues. One sentence unlocks actionable insights. Business truths buried deep across rows and columns instantly surface as clear, intuitive conclusions—right before your eyes. No window switching required. Your sense of control over the project naturally soars.
Stop scrolling through tables to find data—let data speak up for itself.
Unify Messages and Calendar to Build Your Personalized Command Center
Having grasped macro-level data insights, let’s zoom back in—to your personal daily workspace. Every morning, when you open your computer and face thousands of unread messages and a calendar packed wall-to-wall, do you often feel overwhelmed?
In the past, you’d hunt through message lists for urgent notifications, cross-check meeting times in your calendar, then jump between apps to collect pending tasks. Just finding the right entry points consumed half your morning—leaving little time for deep, focused thinking.
Now, Lark seamlessly unifies real-time messaging, calendar, and task management—core capabilities everyone expects—into a personalized efficiency command center tailored to you. The moment you open the interface, today’s top priorities, critical messages, and scheduled meetings instantly converge—clear, concise, and immediately visible.
Take Li Tiantian as an example. At 9 a.m., she opens Lark—not to click through dozens of workgroup chats one by one. Instead, her command center automatically organizes, by timeline and task dependencies, everything she must advance today: approvals requiring action, review meetings to attend, and high-priority messages needing replies.
When hitting interdepartmental bottlenecks, she can instantly summon a third-party intelligent work agent to distill consensus from lengthy group chat threads—or directly generate meeting action items.
From “searching everywhere for entry points” to “sitting down and getting straight to work,” this leap in experience delivers total command over your day. It’s like having a thoughtful, invisible assistant who tidies up your digital desktop each morning—before you even begin.
Say goodbye to chaotic busyness—make every minute count.
Handle Multi-Dimensional Tables in One Sentence—Leaving Tedious Filtering Behind Forever
After reviewing the big-picture view from the command center, Li Tiantian turns to her toughest challenge: processing hundreds—or even thousands—of project records stored in Lark’s multi-dimensional tables.
Earlier, we discussed “asking” data questions using AI—but what if you need to adjust views yourself? In the past, fishing for needles in massive data seas meant clicking through your interface a dozen times: adding filter conditions, setting grouping logic, tweaking sort rules… By the time you finished this sequence of clicks, your eyes were already tired—and you still hadn’t even seen the data clearly.
Now, let AI handle the tedious UI configuration—while you simply speak plainly.
Lark Projects natively supports MQL (Meegle Query Language)—a clean, structured query language. A single line of code (e.g., WHERE \Status\ = 'In Progress' AND \Priority\ = 'P0' GROUP BY \Owner\ ORDER BY \Deadline\ DESC) replaces a dozen clicks to complete filtering, grouping, and sorting. MQL is now officially live in Lark Projects—no third-party tools needed.
What was once a cluttered mass of raw data instantly transforms into a crisp, focused task dashboard.
Swap a dozen clicks for one sentence—that’s the magic of intuitive operation.
Even better, these intelligent filtering rules aren’t “one-time consumables.” Once configured, your view rules save automatically and can be reused flexibly across scenarios. Before next week’s stand-up meeting? One click recalls your custom view—bottlenecks become immediately visible, no reconfiguration required.
From “manually scrolling through tables” to “refining data with one sentence,” AI doesn’t just help you find data—it makes data proactively report to you.
Let data adapt to your thinking—not force you to adapt to the system.
Cross-Team Alignment & Security Governance: Speed *and* Control, Hand-in-Hand
Personal efficiency is maximized—but as projects scale and cross-department collaboration increases, new anxieties inevitably emerge: Could progress spiral out of control? Could sensitive data leak?
A great collaboration tool must not only move fast—it must hold the line.
For cross-team alignment, Lark’s approval capabilities serve as your “rule gatekeeper.” In the past, schedule conflicts or procedural violations relied entirely on project managers manually monitoring every step—and endless back-and-forth in group chats. Now, you embed governance rules directly into approval flows. If someone submits a noncompliant schedule or an invalid request, the system blocks it outright—preventing any further progression.
Shift from “people chasing people” to “systems governing people”—rules apply precisely where workflows go.
On data sharing, Lark Docs and multi-dimensional tables offer granular permission controls—enabling effortless, “one-size-fits-each” security governance. For a core project table: leadership sees the full progress overview; execution teams see only their assigned tasks; external partners access only anonymized modules relevant to their responsibilities.
Everyone collaborates efficiently within the same document or table—yet each person sees *only* the data permitted by their permissions. This breaks down departmental silos while reinforcing a secure information barrier.
Truly advanced collaboration means letting data flow freely—within clearly defined safety boundaries.
From one-sentence data insights to organization-wide security governance, Lark—alongside diverse intelligent work agents—is turning AI into your team’s most dependable digital partner.
