Microsoft 365 Copilot

Microsoft 365 Copilot is an AI-powered productivity assistant that integrates directly into the Microsoft 365 applications organizations already use—Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook, Teams, and more. Built on large language models and grounded in an organization's own data through the Microsoft Graph, Copilot understands context from emails, documents, meetings, and chats to deliver relevant, actionable assistance without leaving the applications where work happens.

In Word, Copilot drafts documents, rewrites sections, summarizes lengthy content, and generates first drafts from prompts or existing files. In Excel, it analyzes datasets, identifies trends, creates formulas, generates PivotTables, and produces visualizations from natural language descriptions of what users want to see. PowerPoint users can generate presentation drafts from Word documents or simple prompts, and Copilot handles layout, formatting, and speaker notes.

Outlook integration helps users manage email more efficiently by summarizing long threads, drafting contextual replies, and prioritizing messages that need attention. In Teams, Copilot summarizes meetings in real time, captures action items, answers questions about what was discussed, and helps users catch up on conversations they missed. Business Chat provides a conversational interface that works across all Microsoft 365 data, allowing users to ask questions that span emails, files, meetings, and contacts.

Because Copilot operates within the Microsoft 365 security and compliance boundary, it respects existing access controls, sensitivity labels, and data loss prevention policies. Users only see AI-generated content derived from data they already have permission to access. For organizations looking to increase productivity while maintaining governance over their data, Copilot provides AI capabilities within the trust boundary they have already established.
