Microsoft has added a “pay-as-you-go” option to access AI agents alongside its free M365 Copilot Chat plan.

Microsoft’s M365 Copilot Chat is a new consumption-based AI product similar to Security Copilot, while the vendor also has license-based GenAI offerings as well.

Microsoft said this week that it is now including Copilot AI features to its Microsoft 365 suite for individual consumers, a day after it rolled out on-demand AI agents for businesses. The Windows-maker will give its customers an option to either choose a Microsoft 365 subscription plan with Copilot AI features or one without it.
