Why does Appsource still have "Power Virtual Agents" and not Copilot as a Product filter?
I'm shocked that there is no Copilot/Agentic AI product filter. It makes it hard to publish consulting listings for AI solutions if people won't know where to find them. I mean, didn't the name Power Virtual Agents go away like, 4 years ago?! Can we petition to get this updated so people know where to browse for Copilot listings properly?
