Microsoft previews agentic mode in Azure Content Understanding

Microsoft announced a preview of agentic mode in Azure Content Understanding, part of Foundry Tools. Unlike the default single-pass standard mode, agentic mode wraps the language model in a document-native harness with a reasoning loop and tools for navigating text and tables, inspecting visual evidence, calculating and validating results. Microsoft positions the two modes as points on a price-performance curve, recommending standard mode first and agentic mode for harder multi-step tasks.
