Start by defining the part of Glean Agents you need to replace. These candidates overlap in a particular output, not in every capability.

Dust

Can replace: Workspace assistants configured around selected sources and scoped tools.

Non-equivalence: Indexing, permissions, enterprise contracts and execution visibility differ; validate with two test roles.

Microsoft Copilot Studio

Can replace: Agents built against selected Microsoft or connector-accessible knowledge sources.

Non-equivalence: The selected environment and connector govern available content. Do not assume identical organization-wide search coverage.
