What’s new for Microsoft Viva – September 2025
September brings the smallest batch of Microsoft Viva updates since I started this monthly roundup, but don’t let the size fool you—there are still some valuable enhancements worth noting. Even in a quieter month, Microsoft continues to refine the Viva experience with features that make workplace engagement and information access smarter.
The highlights this time include a new AI-powered audio briefing in Viva Connections mobile, delivering quick summaries of top news with playback controls, and AI agents in Viva Engage communities, now in Public Preview, that draft answers using community content and SharePoint grounding for improved accuracy. These updates may be fewer, but they show how AI is steadily becoming part of the Viva ecosystem.
