Microsoft Copilot Studio is a low-code tool for building AI agents and automated workflows that connect to a company's data and run in apps like Teams.
In plain words
You describe the agent you want in plain language, give it instructions, connect knowledge sources and tools, and test it before publishing. An agent handles conversations and tasks; a workflow is a step-by-step automation built with a drag-and-drop designer, and the two can work together. Finished agents can be published to channels such as websites, Teams and Microsoft Copilot.
A quick example
Imagine an HR team that gets the same leave-policy questions every day. They build an agent in Copilot Studio, connect it to the policy documents, test its answers, and publish it in Teams so staff can ask it directly.
