Add-on

Copilot

You must have the Copilot add-on to use the features described in this article. If you purchased Advanced AI on or after October 9, 2024, agent copilot is already available in your account, meaning you don’t need to follow the process described in this article.

Agent copilot is a set of AI-powered features focused on making your agents more productive while still allowing them to provide a high level of customer service.

If you purchased Advanced AI before October 9, 2024, you might already be using legacy versions of the features included in agent copilot. On February 10, 2025, your account was migrated to the new and upgraded features included in agent copilot.

This article walks you through what changes occured in your system as a result of the agent copilot migration, from both an admin and an agent perspective. It also outlines some required steps you need to take to ensure a smooth experience for your users.

Required actions as a result of the agent copilot migration

After being migrated to agent copilot, make sure to take the following steps to ensure a smooth experience:

• Turn off Intelligence if you have custom layouts
• Communicate the agent-facing changes to your staff

Turn off Intelligence if you have custom layouts

After you're migrated to agent copilot, Intelligence in the context panel isn't available. Information previously located within Intelligence is now integrated within the ticket interface instead. If you’ve created any custom layouts, you should turn off Intelligence.

If you don’t, your agents will see a message similar to the one in the screenshot below.

To turn off Intelligence, see Turning on and configuring Intelligence in the context panel.

Communicate the agent-facing changes to your staff
