Voice - Microsoft Copilot Studio (original) (raw)

By using the Voice agent template, you can build a voice-enabled agent that provides an effective self-service, hands-free solution from a phone. This agent reduces call volume and increases customer service representative productivity. Customers can interact with the agent by using natural language and choosing options from a touch-tone menu to resolve issues faster.

You can create a new agent in Copilot Studio. On the Agents page, under Start with an agent template, select Voice.

The template constructs the primary building blocks of your voice-enabled agent. Select Create to continue with the agent.
