Following up on the announcement about pay-as-you-go support<\/a> as a new way to pay for Power Automate by Stephen Siciliano, General Manager of Microsoft Power Automate, we\u2019re excited to announce additional capabilities that enables you as an ISVs to take advantage of the pay-as-you-go model opening for unique business opportunities. More specifically, with these new capabilities, we are enabling you to seamlessly embed the Microsoft low code automation capabilities into their existing SaaS product offerings, instead of every vendor investing in building their own. With the introduction of Power Automate pay-as-you-go for ISVs you can more effectively focus on your core mission of delivering innovation to your customers, and simply take advantage of the world\u2019s leading low code platform and include automation and workflow capabilities directly into your existing SaaS offerings through this new model. Not only can this save years of development, but it will also enable high value low code extensibility capabilities to your end customers.<\/p>\n Some of our largest partners are already embedding Power Automate into their solutions. Adobe for example, as Satya mentioned in his keynote:\u201d \u2026is embedding Power Automate into Acrobat Sign so users can automate their document workflows directly from within the app itself. They can generate documents at scale and easily route agreements across stakeholders and systems.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n Earlier this year at the Microsoft Build conference, we also heard from\u00a0Amy Bunszel, Executive Vice President of AEC Design Solutions at Autodesk.\u00a0<\/span>Autodesk is making design data more accessible and useable across their ecosystem of products, through a new integration\u00a0<\/span>with Power Automate that extends the value of low code to the AEC industry.<\/span> Watch the full conversation between Julie Strauss and Amy Bunszel here<\/a> starting at 0:31.<\/p>\n With this new approach to embedding both our low code capabilities along with licensing we have greatly streamlined both onboarding and operation of our embed capabilities: Whether you\u2019re a long-time Microsoft ISV or brand-new partner to Microsoft, it is super simple for you to include Power Automate as part of your SaaS offering. There is no need to join the CSP , you can simply build and distribute your solution, and optionally, work with a reseller. Additionally, you can join the ISV Connect benefits program, should you want to do so. The standard revenue share fee does not apply to ISV Embed and if you have a Microsoft Azure Consumption Commitment (MACC), you can use that to cover the licensing cost for the Power Automate pay-as-you-go meter. Finally, you can set up Power Automate Embed pay-as-you-go with just an Azure Subscription where only requirement on your customers is an Azure Active Directory (AAD) tenant.<\/p>\n To summarize this amazing new approach, that simplifies how you can include Power Automate as part of your SaaS offering:<\/p>\n With pay-as-you-go pricing, you only pay for what your customers use and eliminate the work associated with license assignment:<\/strong> No need to identify how many, and which users will be using Power Automate. Using the new license embed capabilities enables users to build and run premium Power Automate flows that uses connectors defined by you – the ISV – as part of your product definition. Subsequent usage is then calculated based on the number of times each flow is run and billed against an Azure subscription owned by you completely eliminating the need for the customer to think about the billing of the Power Automate capabilities being used.<\/p>\n\n
