The work revolution has entered a new phase. With the arrival of Wave 2 of Microsoft 365 Copilot, we are entering the era of human-agent collaboration, where artificial intelligence not only assists, but becomes an active collaborator capable of reasoning, generating content, analyzing data and adapting to the style of each user.
What is Wave 2 of Microsoft 365 Copilot?
Microsoft’s new spring release redefines how organizations approach productivity and decision making.
Copilot Wave 2 is not just an upgrade: it is an evolution to a new work architecture, where “Frontier Firms” – organizations built on agents, data and contextual intelligence – lead the way.
Main innovations of this new version
Reasoning agents: Researcher and Analyst
At the heart of this evolution are the new reasoning agents, integrated into the Agent Store.
These agents, powered by the latest OpenAI models, are capable of executing complex tasks with precision and depth:
- Researcher enables multi-step investigations, structuring information with levels of quality and context never before achieved.
- Analyst acts as an expert data scientist, extracting insights directly from raw data in minutes.
Both agents are available through the Frontier Program, offering disruptive capabilities today.
Agent Store: Experts on demand
The new Agent Store centralizes access to predefined Microsoft and third-party agents such as Jira, Monday.com, Miro, as well as custom agents for each organization.
Users can search, pin and use them within their workflow, making AI collaboration a natural and seamless experience.
Copilot Search: Enterprise search with contextual AI
One of the most powerful features in the ecosystem is Copilot Search, an AI-powered enterprise search engine that pulls information from multiple sources (such as Google Drive, ServiceNow, Slack or Confluence) to deliver relevant, contextualized, real-time results.
Personalization and adaptive memory
Copilot now learns how you work: it remembers your preferences, roles, communication style and more, to deliver personalized responses.
All under a secure and controlled environment, where the user can decide what information is stored or omitted.
Copilot Notebooks: From content to action
With Copilot Notebooks, users can consolidate content from various sources (documents, recordings, web pages, notes, etc.), and turn it into concrete actions and valuable insights.
In addition, an innovative audio summary functionality is included in podcast format, ideal for consuming information in a more flexible way.
Create: Business creativity powered by GPT-4o
Create functionality democratizes design and content creation, with visual tools powered by the GPT-4o model.
From banners to presentations to videos, teams can generate brand-aligned pieces quickly, professionally and customizable.
Skills Agent: Skills-based teams
As business structures evolve towards more dynamic and project-oriented models, the new Skills Agent allows you to identify internal talent by skills and create specialized teams instantly.
This functionality builds on the People Skills data layer and transforms knowledge management within the organization.
New Capabilities for IT: Governance, Security and Analytics
With Copilot Studio and the Copilot Control System, IT administrators gain deeper control over agent deployment and usage:
Centralized management from the Microsoft 365 admin center.
Security and access control through Data Security Posture Management with Purview.
New reports with Copilot Analytics and Viva Insights, which allow measuring the impact and ROI of agents on business processes.
Born of the Frontier Firm
According to the new Work Trend Index 2025, we are witnessing the birth of the Frontier Firm: companies adopting AI as a core capability, with “intelligence on demand” integrated into all processes.
In this new paradigm, every employee not only works with AI, but leads specialized agents, becoming an agent boss.
Are you ready to lead with intelligence?
The new wave of Copilot marks the beginning of a real and profound transformation in the way we work. It’s no longer about automating tasks, but amplifying human potential with technology that can think, learn and collaborate.
Microsoft 365 Copilot Wave 2 is already coming to organizations. It’s time to explore its capabilities and start building your own Frontier Firm model.
