Microsoft reported 15 million paid Microsoft 365 Copilot seats in FY2026 Q2 (28 Jan 2026). The number of customers with more than 35,000 Copilot seats tripled year-over-year. Agent 365 was introduced as an enterprise governance/identity/security control plane for agents.

Why this was logged

The 15M seats + tripled-large-customer figures are the most-cited enterprise AI adoption datapoints from Microsoft in Q1 2026. Every CIO-facing piece through February referenced them.

Three separable claims: total seats (15M), large-customer growth (3×), Agent 365 introduction. Each gets quoted independently. 30-day cadence because the next Microsoft earnings call (FY26 Q3) updates all three.
