New reasoning agents: Researcher and Analyst in Microsoft 365 Copilot

Analyze data and research with expertise on demand, and automate workflows with intelligent agents in Microsoft 365 Copilot. Analyst thinks like a data scientist and Researcher like an expert, so you can uncover insights, validate logic, and generate expert-level reports in minutes.

And using Microsoft Copilot Studio, build your own autonomous AI agents to streamline multi-step processes with deep reasoning, like responding to RFPs or synthesizing internal knowledge, incorporating Copilot Flows as automated actions. No need for perfect prompts—just describe what you need, and Copilot will reason through the task, surface key insights, and deliver actionable results faster than ever.

Jeremy Chapman, Microsoft 365 Director, walks you through how to use these AI-driven agents step-by-step, from data analysis to research and automation.
