The HP Imagine 2026 has announced HP IQ a workplace intelligence layer that can coordinate experiences across HP devices through local, on-device AI capabilities and proximity-based connectivity.

The new device is designed to enable intelligent workflows that reduce digital friction, helping employees to stay productive and teams to collaborate.

The company outlined its vision for a connected ecosystem of intelligent devices, designed to make work more seamless across devices, spaces, and experiences.

Powered by HP IQ, HP is bringing local, on-device intelligence and proximity-based connectivity together with enterprise manageability to unlock new levels of employee productivity and collaboration across select HP AI PCs and workplace devices.

The President HP Technology and Innovation Organisation, Tuan Tran, said HP’s vision for the future of work is a connected, intelligent ecosystem that helps work flow across devices, spaces, and the moments in between.

 “HP IQ is how we connect those experiences, reducing digital friction for employees while fitting into the environments IT already manages, so organisations can bring these experiences to life with confidence,” Tran said.

The introduction of HP IQ is a demonstration of HP vision for a connected intteligent ecosystem across devices and spaces.

According to the HP 2025 Work Relationship Index, access to the right tools and technology is a key enabler of the employee experience – in fact, the more frequently knowledge workers use AI, the better their relationship with work becomes.

The HP IQ brings that promise to life with powerful, on-device intelligence–transforming the HP devices that employees use every day into context-aware partners that help them eliminate routine tasks, unlock deeper insights, and empower them to make smarter, faster decisions.

HP said that additional AI capabilities are planned to roll out to more HP devices later this year.
