All three Q2 FY26 sub-claims reconfirmed unrestated; Q3 FY26 reported 20M+ paid Copilot seats (up from 15M) and a quadrupled >50k-seat cohort — logged as reinforcing context, with a note that the large-customer metric migrated from >35k to >50k.

This record tracks what the source stated, with evidence for the current verdict. Verdicts describe what the evidence shows, not vendor intent. See methodology for the full counter-evidence + review discipline.
Three separable claims: total seats (15M), large-customer growth (3×), Agent 365 introduction. Each gets quoted independently. 30-day cadence because the next Microsoft earnings call (FY26 Q3) updates all three.
