Microsoft Copilot Studio is Microsoft’s low-code studio for building corporate agents. It serves business teams that need to publish an agent without writing code, while keeping the IT controls of the Microsoft platform.
What it is for
- Building agents that answer from documents, sites and internal systems
- Publishing the agent to Teams, Microsoft 365, websites and messaging channels
- Automating tasks with actions on connected systems and Power Automate flows
- Putting autonomous agents to work on requests, tickets and internal processes
How it works
- The agent is assembled with topics, instructions, knowledge sources and actions
- Ready-made connectors link the agent to SharePoint, Dataverse, Dynamics 365 and external services
- Natural-language authoring lets you describe the agent and adjust what was generated
- The agent can be extended with code and with the Microsoft Agent Framework
- Environment governance, DLP and permissions come from the Power Platform
Availability
- Paid product licensed by messages, credits or Power Platform packages
- Natural-language authoring features in preview
Points to note
- Cost grows with message volume and with the use of autonomous agents
- Large projects require environments and data policies to be defined up front
- Compared with code frameworks, it offers less architectural freedom
