MAIRE Integrates Microsoft Copilot Studio with Autodesk for Engineering AI

On July 13, 2026, MAIRE announced integration of Microsoft Copilot Studio and Foundry with Autodesk Forma and Revit, enabling natural-language engineering data access inside Teams for its 10,000+ employees. This follows Haleon’s five-year expanded Microsoft partnership, first announced July 9 and confirmed July 12, deploying Azure, Copilot, and agentic AI across consumer research, supply chain, and marketing to support its goal of reaching one billion additional consumers by 2030. The same day OpenAI designated GPT-5.6 as the preferred model for Microsoft 365 Copilot, easing breakup speculation after reports of Microsoft expanding in-house MAI models. The developments underscore Microsoft’s accelerating enterprise AI momentum.
