Frequently asked questions

01/ What is Microsoft Copilot Studio?

Microsoft Copilot Studio is a low-code AI platform from Microsoft that allows organizations to create, customize, and manage intelligent AI agents and copilots. It enables businesses to connect agents with company data, automate workflows, answer questions, and interact with users through natural language—without requiring extensive programming.

An agent is an AI-powered system designed to understand user requests, reason about tasks, and take actions to achieve a specific goal. Agents can use instructions, business data, connected tools, and workflows to respond to questions, automate tasks, and make decisions with minimal human intervention.

Publishing your agents to Microsoft 365 Copilot makes them available directly within the tools people already use for work. Users can interact with AI agents through natural language to find information, complete tasks, and automate workflows without switching between different applications.

Key benefits include:

  • Easy access: Make agents available where users already work.
  • Improved productivity: Automate routine tasks and reduce manual effort.
  • Natural interaction: Users can communicate with agents using everyday language.
  • Business integration: Connect agents to organizational data, tools, and workflows.
  • Consistent assistance: Provide employees with reliable AI support across Microsoft 365.

Yes. Microsoft Power Virtual Agents (PVA) is now part of Microsoft Copilot Studio. Microsoft integrated Power Virtual Agents into Copilot Studio to provide a unified platform for building and managing AI agents.

Microsoft Copilot Studio takes a responsible AI approach by providing features and controls designed to help organizations build and deploy AI agents safely and reliably. It supports responsible development through content moderation, security and access controls, data protection, monitoring, and human oversight.

Microsoft Copilot Studio supports multiple languages, allowing organizations to create AI agents that can understand and communicate with users in different languages. This makes it possible to build multilingual agents for customer service, employee support, and global business operations.

The main difference is how the Copilot Studio capabilities are licensed and where they are used. Copilot Studio capabilities available with Microsoft 365 Copilot are designed to extend the Microsoft 365 Copilot experience, allowing users to create and use agents within their Microsoft 365 environment.

Microsoft Copilot Studio can be purchased through several options depending on your organization’s needs. Organizations can purchase a Copilot Studio license with Copilot Credit capacity, choose a pay-as-you-go model through Azure, or use a pre-purchase plan for credits. Microsoft also offers purchasing through Microsoft Sales or authorized partners for organizations that need licensing guidance or implementation support.

No. There is no difference in the underlying Copilot Studio product or capabilities. Copilot Credit packs and pay-as-you-go (PAYG) primarily differ in how usage is purchased and billed.

  • Copilot Credit packs: Organizations purchase a prepaid amount of Copilot Credits for agent usage.
  • Pay-as-you-go: Organizations are billed based on their actual Copilot Credit consumption through an Azure subscription.
  • Same capabilities: Both options provide access to the same Copilot Studio capabilities; the choice mainly depends on your organization’s preferred purchasing and billing model.

To set up pay-as-you-go billing for Copilot Studio, you connect a Power Platform environment to an Azure subscription through a billing policy. This allows your organization to pay based on actual Copilot Credit usage rather than purchasing credits upfront.

Basic setup steps:

  1. Get an Azure subscription with the required permissions.
  2. Create a billing policy in the Power Platform admin center.
  3. Select and connect your Azure subscription and resource group.
  4. Choose Copilot Studio as the applicable Power Platform product.
  5. Link the billing policy to your environment.
  6. Monitor usage and costs through the Power Platform admin center and Azure.
