Microsoft Adds Critique Feature To Researcher

Microsoft on March 30, 2026, adds a 'Critique' feature to its Researcher AI that runs OpenAI's GPT and Anthropic's Claude together to draft and review responses, boosting deep-research quality. The company also introduces a Council mode for side-by-side model comparisons and reports a 13.8-point DRACO benchmark improvement; Researcher with Critique and a Claude-powered Copilot Cowork agent are available to Microsoft 365 Copilot licensees.
Scoring Rationale
Same-day Microsoft product update introducing a multi-model Critique workflow. Scored high for credibility (official company announcement), relevance, and direct actionability for Microsoft 365 Copilot users; moderated slightly for limited novelty and being a vendor-specific feature rather than a broader research breakthrough.
