Building powerful long running agents requires a powerful agent harness. Now it's easier than ever inside of @Microsoft Foundry with the new Microsoft Copilot harness in Foundry Agent Service! 🧑💻
Build and govern a powerful agent powered by the same harness optimized across GitHub, Microsoft 365, and Copilot scenarios for agents that can accomplish complex and long running enterprise tasks -- no code required. All secured and governed in Foundry 🔐

Our team spent 10 years teaching machines to read documents.
LLMs improved language understanding, but reliable document extraction still depends on the system around the model.
Here’s what we learned building Azure Content Understanding 🧵

Our new image model generates images 2x faster than GPT-Image-2, currently the best model in the world.
It's also 72% more efficient in GPU usage, so we can provide it at an incredible price.
This gives it the best price-performance score in the world.
Unbelievable work from the team. So much more to come! Try MAI-Image-2.6-Flash out now!

Fastest. Cheapest. Best. ... MAI-Transcribe-2
10x faster than GPT-Transcribe. 5x faster than Gemini 3.5
#1 on the Artificial Analysis accuracy-latency Pareto frontier
Priced at the lowest on the market.
Truly fantastic work from the team! Try it out below.

Our first reasoning model, MAI-Thinking-1, is built from scratch. Now available in Microsoft Foundry. Kudos to the team! More below.

As @satyanadella says, we're making great progress on shipping MAI models that are higher quality, faster and cheaper across MSFT.
In PowerPoint, our image model cut costs 84% compared with GPT-Image-2.
In OneDrive, it lifted save rates 26% and cut latency by ~25%. It's also the default model in Bing delivering great quality and performance.
In Dragon Copilot, our transcription model now covers 58 languages and halves the error rate on multilingual clinical transcription.
And of course the flights we have in motion on GitHub and Excel will no doubt be huge too!
