The Microsoft Agent Scripting Software (MASS) is a WYSIWYG Microsoft Agent scripting tool developed by Abhisoft Technologies. Similar to the Microsoft Agent Scripting Helper by BellCraft Technologies, MASS allows for the user to create scripts via selecting animations, custom dialog, and gestures. Similarly, the program also has a "Script Output" section, where the script can be edited immediately after an action is added. Unlike MASH however, the program is considered trialware, and the user is given a 15 day trial before a purchase of 9.95 USD has to be made.

Trivia

• It is likely that the program and MASH both competed for sales, as evidenced by both programs being trialware in the 2000s.
  • However, MASH would eventually become freeware in 2008.
• Abhisoft Technologies, the developers behind this program, also developed the Microsoft Agent Properties Viewer and a character "Beckham".
• The installer with MASS is possibly made with Clickteam Install Creator, with the Microsoft Agent Scripting Software 2.0 installer having a Clickteam Install Maker message at the end.
  • BlobBUDDY, BonziBUDDY Rewritten and Circus Pals also use the Clickteam Install Maker for their own EXE installers.
• Scripts made in MASS are saved as HTML files rather than .MSH files.
