copilot agent mode

About this tag
Copilot Agent Mode is a Microsoft 365 feature that turns Copilot into an active, multi-step AI assistant within Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and Outlook. It can draft, revise, and refine content, manage inbox triage, schedule meetings, and create rules—moving Copilot from a suggestion tool to a production workflow layer. The mode became generally available in Word, Excel, and PowerPoint on April 22, 2026, and rolled out to Outlook via the Frontier program on April 27, 2026. Microsoft positions Copilot Agent Mode as a core part of its agentic productivity strategy, making AI-driven task automation a default capability for organizations of all sizes.
