The next step in AI-first development
In the realm of app development, a groundbreaking evolution is underway as the Next-Gen AI Copilot emerges within Microsoft Power Apps. Pioneering the AI-first approach since 2021, this innovative feature has continually pushed the boundaries.All-up, more than 63,000 organizations globally have used AI-powered capabilities in Power Platform, up 75% quarter-over-quarter and is today further allowing developers to harness the power of artificial intelligence for app creation like never before.
With the Next-Gen AI Copilot, app makers can easily start creating an app with a few words in natural language. Gone are the days of grappling with complex code or spending endless hours designing applications. Instead, they now engage in natural language conversations, describing their visions effortlessly, as the Copilot instantly materializes fully-fledged applications complete with data tables and back-end logic. Power Apps instantly generate their application, complete with a data table and back-end logic.
Here are just a few examples of natural language prompts you can use:
- “Create a time and expense application to enable my employees to submit their time and expense reports.”
- “Build an application to automate the manual process of creating and approving customer invoices.”
- “Generate an employee onboarding application to capture new hire information and share training content and learning modules.”
From there, a quick conversation with Copilot will make the adjustments your app needs. Need to add columns to your data tables? No problem, Copilot in Power Apps will suggest options and even help you populate them with sample data! Stuck and don’t know where to go next? Copilot will provide proactive recommendations for how you can improve your application.
Supercharging insights with copilot control in your applications
In the same way that conversational AI is transforming app development, next-generation AI is also revolutionizing how users query and interact with their data.
With the copilot control in Power Apps, app makers can give their users the ability to get intelligent insights about the data in their apps through a conversational chat experience. Users can use natural language to create queries and refine their analysis, all with the help of an AI assistant embedded directly in the running app.
Whether a user needs to understand changes in their inventory, estimate average time to complete a task, or explore which of their campaigns drove the most revenue, the copilot control is ready to listen, analyze, and report.
Here are a few examples of natural language prompts your users can use:
- “What are the most common reasons an inspection fails?”
- “Who are the most active inspectors for that type of issue?”
- “Which equipment is most often inspected?”
Native integration of Microsoft Power Virtual Agents chatbots in Power Apps
Excitingly, the integration of AI-empowered Power Virtual Agents adds another dimension to the Power Apps experience. With seamless native integration, developers can now enhance their applications by incorporating next-gen AI-powered Power Virtual Agents bots.
We are entering an unprecedented time where AI is transforming many aspects of our lives and work. From how we communicate, to how we collaborate, to how we learn, AI is empowering us to do more with less. And with conversational boosters and natural language bot building capabilities ensure that users receive unparalleled support and assistance within their applications.
Imagine it. Describe it. Power Apps builds it.
