KPMG deploys tens of thousands of employee-built AI agents on Microsoft's AI stack

Professional services firm KPMG integrated Microsoft 365 Copilot into daily tools for 280,000 professionals and used Copilot Studio and Azure AI Foundry to let employees build their own AI agents and micro-use cases, deploying tens of thousands of them. One onboarding agent that helps new hires find templates and historical context reduced follow-up calls by 20%, and an enterprise-grade ESG agent that automates policy lifecycle management contributed to an 18-month reduction in compliance timelines. Department-level agents include KPMG Clara for audit risk detection and a Digital Gateway for real-time tax regulatory analysis.

Innovating banking efficiency: National Bank of Greece transforms operations with Microsoft Azure AI Document Intelligence

National Bank of Greece (NBG), which serves 6 million customers across 356 branches, built a Document AI solution on Azure AI Document Intelligence (formerly Form Recognizer) to replace a limited rule-based OCR process. Built in under four months after analyzing 50 million pages to create a training dataset, the solution now supports about 20 document categories across nearly 60 document templates (tax forms, payroll certificates, IDs, energy certificates, utility bills), processes documents at under 0.5 seconds per page, and integrates with six customer-facing digital banking applications. Accuracy improved to approximately 90%, the system is tuned to recognize the Greek language, and NBG now processes over 700,000 pages per month.
