    For Copilot Studio agents, it depends on what they are designed to do. Some can be used at no cost, while others may become quite expensive. Many of your questions may be answered in the Copilot Studio Licensing Guide, which is available here: https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?linkid=2320995 

    Currently, Microsoft is planning to release a new governance and administration feature for agents in Copilot Studio on July 14. This update will include spending limits and cost management capabilities.
