Bring Fronterio to where your team already works
The Teams Agent puts Fronterio's AI Consultant inside Microsoft Teams and Microsoft 365 Copilot Chat. Run assessments, register agents, ask compliance questions, and ship reports through @-mentions or natural conversation. Manifest v1.21 means one bot backend serves both Teams and the Copilot agent store: same install, two surfaces.
Surfaces from one app: Teams + Microsoft 365 Copilot

Why a Teams agent
Most enterprise AI failures happen because the platform you're trying to drive adoption with isn't where your team works. They use Teams. They use Copilot. They use Outlook. The last thing they want is yet another browser tab. The Fronterio Teams Agent solves this by bringing the AI Consultant + governance workflows directly into Microsoft Teams as a chat bot.
From Teams, your team can ask any question the AI Consultant would normally answer in the dashboard: 'how do we register a new agent?', 'what's the EU AI Act risk classification for our new chatbot?', 'draft a Transparency Notice for our customer support agent'. The bot answers in-context, with the same evidence-grounded responses, the same citations to your audit log, the same partner-consultant escalation cards.
Beyond chat, the bot supports proactive notifications. When an Article 73 incident deadline approaches, the bot DMs the responsible person. When a high-risk agent gets approved, the bot announces it in the governance channel. When a Post-Market Monitoring report is ready, the bot offers it as a download. The platform comes to your team instead of your team having to remember to come to the platform.
The same agent also ships as a Microsoft 365 Copilot agent: users can find Fronterio inside Microsoft 365 Copilot Chat alongside their other agents. One install, two surfaces.
Proactive messaging is opt-in by install: once a user installs the bot, Fronterio can reach them in Teams with the events that matter — incident deadlines, approvals, weekly digests.
Setup is admin-only and dashboard-driven (no terminals). The runbook in docs/ops/fronterio-everywhere-activation.md § 1-2 walks through Azure AD app registration, manifest sideload, AppSource submission, and Copilot Chat enablement, each step a Microsoft admin clicks through with copy-paste-ready values.
One install. Two surfaces. Zero context switching.

Teams Agent capabilities
Conversational AI Consultant
Same evidence-grounded consultant that powers the dashboard drawer, available in Teams DMs, group chats, and channels via @mentions.
Microsoft 365 Copilot Custom Engine Agent
Fronterio is discoverable inside Microsoft 365 Copilot Chat alongside the user's other agents — the same agent on two Microsoft surfaces.
Proactive Article 73 alerts
The bot watches incident deadlines and DMs the responsible person as one approaches: no one misses a regulatory deadline.
Approval announcements
When a high-risk agent gets approved, the bot announces in your governance channel with a link to the technical documentation.
Weekly digest delivery
Friday morning the bot DMs each user a personalised weekly digest: what changed in their org, what they should look at, what's overdue.
Per-tenant rate limiting
Every message is authenticated against Microsoft's official Bot Framework keys and rate-limited per tenant and user. All outbound calls run through strict egress protection.
Conversation reference store
Install once, the conversation reference persists. Any backend event can push to that user's Teams chat: incident timers, ROI snapshots, board-pack notifications.
Sideload + AppSource path
Sideload validates the integration with one tenant, then AppSource submission unlocks public discovery in the Teams + M365 Copilot stores.
How to activate
Register the Azure AD app
Microsoft 365 admin creates the multi-tenant Azure AD app for the bot. Configure redirect URIs and admin-consent permissions per the runbook.
Sideload the manifest
Upload the Teams manifest (v1.21) to your tenant via Teams Admin Center. The bot is installable in any team or chat.
Verify the bot in Teams
Add the bot in a test channel, confirm @-mentions reach Fronterio, confirm the conversation reference is stored after first install.
Enable Copilot Custom Engine Agent
The same manifest exposes Fronterio in Microsoft 365 Copilot Chat. Validate via the Copilot Agent Builder, then submit to AppSource for store discovery.
Push proactive messages
Choose which proactive notifications your team gets — incident deadline reminders and weekly digests. The platform now reaches your team in Teams without them having to log into Fronterio.
“Adoption is not about how good the platform is. It's about how often your team encounters it. Teams Agent puts Fronterio in the same surface they live in.”
