Are you in the greater New York City area and working with Microsoft 365 Copilot?
Struggling to get, or frustrated with the default Copilot experience?
According to a recent Wall Street Journal article, you aren’t alone! It echoed a lot of what I see from discussions with Copilot customers.

Microsoft's Pivotal AI Product Is Running Into Big Problems
Wall Street Journal - February 3, 2026 Sebastian Herrera
If you’re looking to get real value from that $30/month Microsoft 365 Copilot license for each of your users, you should look into creating custom agents!
But… before jumping in, you should consider your options for creating an agent. Microsoft’s marketing isn’t clear or tells the whole story…
Which is why you should join me for my presentation at AgentCon New York on March 9 at the NASDAQ in Times Square:

Evaluate your M365 Copilot Agent options: SharePoint, Agent Builder, Copilot Studio or Declarative Agents with the ATK?
You’ve rolled out Microsoft 365 Copilot, and now your organization has entered the AI revolution.
Mission accomplished! … or is it?
Out of the box, Microsoft 365 Copilot only has access to the underlying LLM’s baseline knowledge and some content in your Microsoft 365 tenant.
But most companies have valuable data outside Microsoft 365—manuals, standard operating procedures, policies, inventory systems, ERPs, CRMs, sales data, and more! How can you connect Copilot to these resources? Custom agents are the answer.
But, how do you choose between your agent options? SharePoint Agents, Agent Builder, Copilot Studio, or Declarative Agents with the M365 Agents Toolkit (ATK)?
You know how!
You’ll attend this session and leave armed knowing the differences between these options and which one makes the most sense for your organization!
