Improvements to next-gen AI in Power Automate coupled with the new Power Automate flow designer are fueling quicker development. Copilot has been enabled by default and with the version three designer available to everyone, users are loving the authoring experience and are creating flows with Copilot that are 50% more likely to run in production.

General Overview

This is a new milestone in the field of low-code solutions development, with the Power Platform's AI capabilities leading the charge. Over 120,000 organizations are actively utilizing the Power Platform, offering a broader audience the benefits through enhanced Copilot capabilities.

Copilot via Power Pages is revolutionizing the way data-driven websites are designed, rendering the process more user-friendly for developers. AI-assistants can now be personalized and expanded, giving every app an edge with its own influential Copilot.

With the integration of next-gen AI and Power Automate’s new flow designer, development is hastened, promising more productive outcomes. In response to the exponential growth of the Power Platform community, group learning opportunities and a Super Users group have been formed, enhancing community support and collaboration.
