Ship agents faster with expanded model choice, voice agents, and continuous optimization

The best model for your business will keep changing. Adopting it should move your business forward, not send your team back to rebuild the architecture around it. As models advance, organizations need the freedom to choose the right model for each workload, and an agent foundation that can evolve with those choices.

Microsoft Foundry provides that model—and harness—agnostic foundation for building and running agents. Teams can adopt better models as they emerge while preserving their investments in the enterprise systems, knowledge, tools, and controls that make agents useful to their business.

Adopting a newer model is only the starting point. Foundry helps teams continuously improve their agents, using production traces to evaluate and refine instructions, skills, tools, and model choice against quality, latency, and cost. That’s the hill-climbing approach: observe, evaluate, optimize, validate, and repeat—with people in control

Today, we’re advancing that foundation to help teams build and continuously improve agents that deliver business value:

These advances help teams spend less time assembling infrastructure and more time building.

One customer putting these capabilities together is Fashable, which uses Foundry’s models, agents, knowledge, and tools to help fashion brands turn trends and ideas into clothing designs, virtual try-on experiences, and campaign imagery. By connecting these workflows with the existing brands’ systems, Fashable reports cutting the time to develop new fashion products from months to weeks, with one customer reducing its budget for physical samples by 60%.
