Library Presents: M365 Copilot Researcher & Analyst Agents Online
Join the Commerce Research Library and the M365 team for a session that will demonstrate the Researcher and Analyst agents built into Microsoft 365 Copilot. Attendees will see how Researcher can gather and organize information into a structured, source-cited report and how Analyst can examine a dataset to identify trends, comparisons, and outliers.
The session will cover:
Researcher demonstration
See how to submit a complex research question, review the agent's research plan and sources, and generate a structured report with citations and key findings.
Analyst demonstration
See how to provide a dataset, ask analysis questions, and use the agent to identify trends, comparisons, outliers, and other notable findings.
Choosing and reviewing the output
Understand when to use Researcher or Analyst and what to review before using their results in a research product or briefing.
