Automate repetitive processes with AI Agents

Are you still wasting time and money on manual tasks and slow approval flows? AI Agents take over these repetitive tasks autonomously and perform them flawlessly, allowing your team to focus on work that really adds value. The result: fewer errors, lower costs and faster turnaround times. This makes it easy to transition from idea to efficient process automation.

Why AI Agents make a difference in process automation

Many organisations have already digitised their core processes, but continue to struggle with smaller, repetitive tasks that cost time and money. Think of approval flows, data processing or reporting that are still done manually. AI Agents tackle precisely this challenge: they understand context, make decisions and perform tasks autonomously. This way, automation is no longer an expensive IT exercise, but a smart way to increase productivity and avoid errors.

What can AI Agents do for you?

  • More time for core tasks: reduce manual operations and waiting times.
  • Cost savings: reduce errors and speed up your processes.
  • Higher quality: consistent execution with built-in controls.
  • Flexibility: easily adapt processes without coding knowledge.
  • Faster turnaround times: workflows run more smoothly from start to finish.
  • Better scalability: handle peaks without additional staff.

Getting started with AI Agents within Copilot

Using AI Agents in Microsoft 365 Copilot

With Copilot, you can use AI Agents to get more done in less time. They automate routine tasks, retrieve information and perform actions within your trusted Microsoft apps. This allows you to work smarter, without additional tools or complex integrations.


Build your own AI Agents with Copilot Studio

Want more than standard functionality? With Copilot Studio, you can easily build AI agents that perfectly match your processes. Start from a template or design from scratch with natural language and low-code, so you can quickly create agents that automate specific tasks and workflows.


Which types of AI agents are suitable for your situation?

AI agents come in various forms, depending on how complex your processes are. From simple information processing to autonomous decision-making: these are the three main types and their applications.

  • Informative agent: The most accessible form. This agent retrieves information, summarises it and shares insights. Think of an AI that automatically summarises a meeting or draws up a report based on data from various sources.
  • Executive agent: Goes a step further and effectively performs tasks. For example, an AI agent that automatically starts an approval flow, sends documents or processes data.
  • Autonomous agent: The most advanced form. Makes independent decisions based on available information and can even make suggestions to improve processes. Think of a digital financial controller that checks your accounts, detects errors and suggests corrections.

TIP: Start simply with informative or executive agents and expand step by step. As your governance and data quality improve, you can evolve to autonomous agents for maximum impact.

Frequently asked questions about AI Agents

How does an AI Agent differ from a traditional AI model?

Traditional AI models support people in specific tasks, while AI Agents can perform entire workflows independently. They can reason, remember, learn and even assess when human assistance is needed, making them versatile digital assistants for a wide range of business processes.

Will you opt for AI agents or a low-code workflow?

Low-code tools such as Power Automate are ideal for structured processes with clear rules. You can build workflows yourself without any programming knowledge, but they are static and cannot handle exceptions. AI agents go further: they make autonomous decisions based on context and goals, control multiple systems and learn as they go. This makes them suitable for complex, dynamic processes that do not always follow a fixed pattern.

Will our data remain secure and compliant with the GDPR?

Yes. AI Agents operate within your secure environment and follow governance and privacy guidelines such as GDPR.

How reliable is the output of an AI Agent?

AI Agents operate with built-in controls and human validation. This allows you to combine automation with certainty.

Do AI Agents also work for SMEs?

Yes. AI Agents are scalable and suitable for both SMEs and larger organisations.
