Microsoft launches real-time voice agents in Copilot Studio
Microsoft has made real-time voice agents generally available in Copilot Studio. These agents conduct low-latency speech-to-speech conversations that users can interrupt, using real-time reasoning for tasks like customer service. The launch starts in Dynamics 365 Contact Center in North America. Agents maintain conversation context during escalations to human staff. Expansions to more regions, languages, Teams Phone and other channels are planned. Over 80 percent of Fortune 500 companies already use Copilot Studio to build agents.
Voice interactions in business used to mean rigid phone menus or scripted bots that customers hated, forcing escalations and high handling times. Agents lacked natural flow or context awareness across handoffs. Copilot Studio now delivers adaptive voice AI that reasons on the fly, slashing resolution times and costs for high-volume calls. For M365 teams, this proves agents can handle real conversations reliably, paving the way for grounded bots in Teams or SharePoint that pull company data safely - unlike ChatGPT's generic responses.
Analysis
Forget contact center hype if you're not in Dynamics; this validates Copilot Studio agents as the reliable path to beat ChatGPT with your own data. Log into Copilot Studio today, clone a sample agent, and adapt it for Teams meeting recaps that assign action items - run a live demo for your team tomorrow to spike adoption past 10 percent and quiet the boss.
