There’s an updated (February 2026) Agent Cost Management Whitepaper – a useful document helping you to understand some of the key topics in getting started with Agents. There’s some good information on the different ways to buy and set up Copilot Credits, as well as help on monitoring costs and applying cost controls. This latest version is updated with the Copilot Credits Pre-Purchase Plan, including instructions on how to set this up and how it can be combined with other ways of purchasing Copilot Credits.

There’s also improved information on setting up who can create and use Agents in Microsoft 365 Copilot Chat. Find this updated guide here: https://bit.ly/4rJ0LOd.
