Metrics catalog and voice calls in active chats

Start here

• Verified numbers in Artifacts

  Artifacts can now display approved metrics instead of relying on custom queries. Agnes checks the approval status and marks the results as verified, unverified, or lapsed, automatically withholding data if an approval is revoked or changed.

  Why it matters: Readers can trust the numbers they see in shared documents and reports.

• Certified queries

  You can now define a query with the business question it answers and certify it against an expected result. Queries can be marked as certified, stale, or uncertified, and use placeholders for reference parameters.

  Why it matters: This helps ensure that the answers to important business questions remain accurate and verified.

• Voice calls in active chats

  Starting a voice call from an open chat now connects the call directly to that conversation. The voice agent knows what was just discussed, the call transcript is saved in the chat, and you can continue typing right where the call left off.

  NewAvailable

• Read more document types

  When you upload a presentation or text document that the assistant cannot read directly, it now converts the file to a readable format in the background. The original file remains untouched.

  Why it matters: You can upload a wider variety of everyday office documents without worrying about format compatibility.

  NewAvailable

• Simplified chat approvals

  The web chat no longer asks you to approve actions for an entire session. Each approval is answered once, and private artifact work no longer asks for approval at all.

  Why it matters: This reduces the number of prompts you have to click through while working.

  ChangedAvailable

• Daily checks for approved queries

  Approved queries used in your documents are automatically tested every day against their expected results. The query owner receives a notification if the daily check fails or when it recovers.

  Why it matters: You can trust that the data in your documents remains accurate over time.

  NewAvailable

• A dedicated metrics catalog

  A new catalog lists all the metrics you can access, showing their domain, source, owner, and approval status. You can search and filter the list, and metric owners can review and approve definitions on dedicated pages.

  Why it matters: It makes it easy to find, understand, and trust the business metrics available to you.

  NewAvailable

• Reindex folders from a link

  Paste a SharePoint folder address or sharing link into the Library search box to find and reindex it. You can also paste the link directly into a chat to have the assistant reindex the folder for you.

  Why it matters: This saves you from clicking through nested folders to find the exact one you want to update.

  NewAvailable

• Company memory for agents

  Approved company memory items are now automatically shared with agents. These facts are delivered directly to the people and agents who have access to them across all chat interfaces.

  Why it matters: Your agents can now use the same approved company facts that you rely on in your own chats.

• Suggest facts for everyone

  When you state a useful fact in a chat, you can now suggest it for the whole company. The fact is sent to reviewers as a proposal and is only shared with others after it is approved.

  Why it matters: You can easily help build your company knowledge base directly from your everyday conversations.

• Memory improvement agent

  Agnes now learns from conversations where people teach or correct the assistant, and from gaps it finds in data descriptions. It turns these lessons into proposed updates for your company knowledge, grouping similar lessons together for a person to review and approve.

  Why it matters: This helps keep your company knowledge accurate and up to date without requiring someone to manually write every entry.

  NewAvailable

• Review queue for company knowledge

  Proposed updates to your company knowledge now wait in a central review queue. Administrators and curators can read the proposals, check the evidence, and approve, edit, or reject them before they become part of the official memory.

  Why it matters: This ensures that only accurate and verified information is added to your shared company knowledge.

  NewAvailable

• Personal memory controls

  You can now see the specific company facts Agnes uses to answer your questions. If a fact is unhelpful, you can dismiss it so it stops appearing in your chats, or report a problem to send it to a reviewer for correction.

  Why it matters: You get direct control over the information Agnes uses to help you.

  NewAdmin turns on

• Automated memory maintenance

  Agnes now regularly re-checks memory items and proposes updates if a check fails. Items that are no longer used or verified are proposed for retirement, and reviewers can track the health and impact of the memory system.

  Why it matters: It keeps the information Agnes uses accurate and up to date without manual tracking.

  NewAvailable

• Action policies for agents

  You can now set specific rules for what an agent is allowed to do. This includes restricting which tools the agent can use and limiting the exact values it can provide, like only allowing it to post to a specific channel.

  Why it matters: This gives you tighter control over your agents so they only take the actions you expect.

  NewAvailable

• Private memory for shared agents

  When you share an agent, its memory notebook is no longer shared by default. Colleagues who use your shared agent will only see notes generated during their own sessions, plus any specific notes you choose to share with them.

  Why it matters: This prevents information from your own sessions from accidentally leaking to colleagues.

  ChangedAvailable

• Decision report format

  A built-in decision report format provides a clear answer, shows status against a target, lists likely causes, and recommends a specific action from a predefined list.

  Why it matters: This makes it easier to share clear and actionable insights with your team in a consistent format.

  NewAvailable

• Easier Google Workspace connection

  You can connect Google Calendar, Drive, Docs, and Sheets without manually creating an authentication app. Agnes uses your existing Google sign in configuration to request permissions and provides a single redirect link.

  Why it matters: Connecting your Google tools is much faster and requires fewer technical steps.

  ChangedAvailable

• Privacy for shared agent runs

  When you use a shared agent, you now only see the prompt, summary, errors, and usage for the runs you started yourself. For runs started by other people, you will only see the status and timestamps.

  Why it matters: This keeps your specific prompts and agent interactions private from other people using the same shared agent.

  ChangedAvailable

• Verified phone numbers

  You can register and verify your phone number in your profile to make calls to agents. Your profile also lists your recent phone calls, and you can report any calls you do not recognize to remove their transcripts.

  Why it matters: Verifying your number ensures agents know who is calling and keeps your voice conversations secure.

  NewAvailable

• Metric approval and ownership

  Administrators can assign an owner to a metric, and the owner or an admin can approve its definition. This approval automatically expires if the metric's underlying definition changes.

  Why it matters: It helps everyone know which metrics are verified and up to date.

• Disable public sharing links

  Administrators can turn off public links for all shared items across the company. When disabled, existing public links will only work for signed-in people who already have access, and the option to create public links is removed.

  Why it matters: This helps administrators ensure company information is not accidentally shared with the outside world.

• Microsoft Entra ID group sync

  Administrators can now connect Microsoft Entra ID to automatically synchronize user groups. Agnes checks for updates frequently, so if someone is removed from a group or their account is disabled in Entra, their access in Agnes is updated quickly.

  Why it matters: This keeps your access controls secure and up to date without waiting for people to sign in again.

• Refresh metrics on open

  Metric owners and admins can set verified metrics to refresh automatically when a reader opens a shared report. The system refreshes the metric if its snapshot is older than the report's refresh interval.

  Why it matters: Readers see current numbers for important metrics when they open a report.

• Add agent actions to reports

  Report creators can add actions that trigger a specific agent task using the report's current numbers. The numbers are frozen when the action starts, and the agent runs in a restricted mode to complete the task.

  Why it matters: Readers can trigger agent tasks directly from the data they see in a report.

• Annotate synced semantic models

  Admins can add caveats or corrections to a synced semantic model without modifying the original source document. These annotations are applied on top of the synced model and are visible to anyone reading it.

  Why it matters: You can add context to semantic models directly in Agnes without waiting for the source system to be updated.

• Chat suggestions in memory review

  The list of signals for company memory administrators now includes suggestions that people made directly in their chats.

  Why it matters: Administrators get a complete view of all suggested facts in one place.
