Copilot Control System

Updated Copilot usage metrics in Copilot Analytics

Copilot Dashboard users can soon dig deeper into how employees are engaging with Copilot Chat on work data with new prompt categories: “Ask and find,” “Catch up,” “Draft and brainstorm,” and “Other.” These categories give leaders and analysts a closer look at how employees use Copilot Chat (work) to increase productivity. They can view totals and breakdowns by organization and groups in the Adoption and Impact tabs under Copilot Chat (work). This feature is rolling out in July.

Copilot Dashboard users can now view Intelligent Recap meeting metrics that reflect both summarized and recapped meeting activity, offering a more complete view of Copilot’s impact in Teams. These updates replace previous Copilot Assisted Hour calculations and meeting metrics with unified “summarized or recapped” metrics, helping leaders better understand usage across their organization. The updated metrics are available in both the Copilot Dashboard and the Microsoft 365 Copilot Impact report in Advanced Insights. This feature rolled out in June.

Agent management and cost controls in the Microsoft 365 admin center

AI administrators can now view and manage agent inventory with rich agent metadata including agent capabilities, knowledge sources, custom actions, certification details and more. Under Agents & connectors, admins can deploy and block agents, review and approve requested agents, and manage per-agent access at the user or group level.

To enable departmental billing and cross-charges for the Microsoft 365 Copilot Chat pay-as-you-go service, admins can now create billing policies scoped to defined users and groups, and the associated Azure subscription. To help manage costs and mitigate overspending, admins will soon be able to set budget and spending limits per billing policy. These capabilities will enable admins to define their budget, budget reset frequency, and email alerts based on defined thresholds.
