Microsoft Teams Blog:
It's hard to believe May is over already! You may have noticed this edition of What's new in Teams is landing a few days later than usual — that's intentional. We're publishing alongside Microsoft Build, our annual developer conference where we showcase the latest in AI, agents, and the tools that help developers. It's one of the most energizing weeks of the year, full of announcements, hands-on sessions, and a first look at where the platform is headed. A lot of what's in this release ties directly to what's being unveiled on the Build stage, and I wanted to highlight a few Teams Platform features worth calling out:
- Linear, Cursor, and Atlassian Rovo agents in Teams — three powerful new partner agents that turn channel conversations into shipped code, filed issues, and updated project plans without ever leaving the chat.
- New Teams CLI — one command to register, configure, and deploy a Teams agent, so developers can spend their time on agent logic instead of managing complex processes
- Collaborative features for agents – our new agent capabilities include quoted replies to keep conversations anchored, slash commands to quickly take action in the flow of work, and expressive emoji reactions that add nuance without adding noise, all helping teams stay aligned and move faster in collaboration with agents.
New AI-generated Video recap in Teams turns meeting recordings into short, narrated highlight reels—so you can quickly catch up on what matters most without watching the full session.
In Teams Phone, Brand Impersonation Protection alerts you in real time when a caller may be posing as a trusted brand like your bank or IT helpdesk, so you can decline or report the call with confidence.
These are just a taste of what's new. Read on to see everything we've released in May across chat, meetings, phone, rooms, frontline, and more.
