Microsoft announce “Computer Use” – a capability that will enable Agents to interact with websites and desktop apps by clicking buttons, selecting menus, and typing into fields on the screen. It’s due to come to Copilot Studio soon through an early access research preview program.
You can find the announcement article here: https://bit.ly/3GgperF with a link to apply to participate in the preview program, and why not register for a demo session at Build in May 2025: https://bit.ly/4jV3EYl.
There’s an updated (April 2025) Power Platform Licensing Guide. Microsoft introduced deep reasoning and Agent Flows in Copilot Studio in March 2025 (https://bit.ly/4jmTMH9) and the Licensing Guide is updated for those new innovations. When you implement these in your Agents you consume messages and now there’s a splendid table on page 19 which details the different types of activity and how many messages they consume. There’s also a reduction (from 30 to 10) in the number of messages required for answers grounded in the tenant graph.
