These Copilot agents will be triggered by certain events and work with a business’s own data. Here’s how Microsoft describes a potential Copilot for employee onboarding:

Imagine you’re a new hire. A proactive copilot greets you, reasoning over HR data and answers your questions, introduces you to your buddy, gives you the training and deadlines, helps you with the forms and sets up your first week of meetings. Now, HR and the employees can work on their regular tasks, without the hassle of administration.
