Millions of Microsoft 365 users could benefit from AI-powered automation thanks to a new integration that UiPath has announced with Microsoft Copilot. In light of data stored in Microsoft 365 Graph, the release highlights joint clients’ capacity to leverage specialised AI models to automate operations within Microsoft Copilot and Teams.
By giving users the ability to automate business activities inside of Teams, this collaboration aims to increase productivity. Workers can use pre-built automations to perform repetitive activities by using the new UiPath plugin for Copilot. One of these responsibilities is to use AI models in the Microsoft 365 ecosystem for specialized activities like understanding documents.
According to UiPath’s Chief Product Officer, Graham Sheldon, “Our partnership with Microsoft incorporates UiPath automations, allowing millions of Microsoft users to potentially increase the automation capabilities of Microsoft Copilot by gaining access to GenAI and specialized AI models from UiPath.” Our goal with our end-to-end automation technology is to expedite human accomplishment.”
Among the initial ecosystem partners of Copilot for Microsoft Teams and Microsoft 365 is UiPath. Through Copilot for Microsoft 365 and Teams, the connection gives users immediate access to UiPath’s enterprise-grade automation features. The goal of this action is to employ automation and artificial intelligence to revolutionize digital workspaces and promote improved user experiences.
By using Microsoft 365 Graph as a knowledge base in conjunction with UiPath’s automation and document comprehension models, the alliance will allow users to automate end-to-end business processes. Tasks like managing email correspondence inside Teams and processing loan requests are examples of tasks that may now be carried out using basic commands.
According to Srini Raghavan, Vice President of Product, Microsoft Teams Ecosystem, “UiPath users can find and execute UiPath automations straight from Copilot for Microsoft 365 thanks to the integration between the UiPath Business Automation Platform and Microsoft Copilot.” These kinds of solutions, which use Microsoft Copilot to increase worker productivity and creativity, are essential to ushering in a new era of work.”
A pre-built automation library supports the integration’s goal of giving users the ability to automate routine and industry-specific processes. Incorporating AI into workplace productivity tools is a larger strategy that this program fits within. It addresses problems like worker burnout, which 58% of employees think can be reduced by automation driven by AI.
At booth FP46, UiPath demonstrated its Intelligent Document Processing and other platform features, and the announcement was made during the Microsoft Build 2024 conference. Those who attended the conference had the chance to observe directly how UiPath’s products can be incorporated into the Microsoft ecosystem to improve user experiences and increase productivity.
It is also mentioned that UiPath, which incorporates UiPath Automation Cloud, prefers Microsoft Azure as a cloud platform. The two organizations’ goal to creatively blend automation and artificial intelligence to satisfy the expanding needs of contemporary digital workplaces is demonstrated by this alliance.
It is anticipated that the integration of UiPath and Microsoft Copilot will redefine business automation, revolutionizing the way businesses use technology to improve productivity and create a more streamlined, team-oriented work environment.
