Announcement
Introducing Copilot Pages—the first new digital artifact for the AI age
Copilot is the new UI for AI. And it all starts with Business Chat (BizChat), a central hub that brings together all your data—web data, work data, and line of business data—right in the flow of your work. With BizChat, you can integrate dynamic content creation directly into your workflow using Copilot Pages, a dynamic, persistent canvas designed for AI collaboration. Say goodbye to copying and pasting or losing responses; Pages now serves as the base of your work so you can effortlessly create, edit, share, and collaborate. Follow the link below and try your favorite prompt. Once you get the prompt response, select Edit in Pages at the bottom of a BizChat response.
Unlock the power of Copilot in Excel, now generally available
You had early access, but Copilot is now seamlessly integrated into the workbook for customers. It's like having an Excel expert right by your side, ready to assist you with everything from advanced data analysis to writing complex formulas.
For example, you can now:
-
Ask Copilot to highlight a marketing trend that exceeds revenue and select from conditional formatting options.
-
Copilot can interpret customer reviews in text columns, offering insights.

Improvements based on your feedback
Easily co-create with Copilot in PowerPoint Narrative builder to get a better first draft presentation
Start with a branded template or new file and narrative builder will help you create the right story up front, giving an outline of topics you can add to, delete, or move. Once Copilot generates your slides, you have a closer-to-final set of content. And, since Copilot automatically adds speaker notes, animations, and transitions as part of the creation process, you're even closer to being presentation ready.
Easily reference your emails, meetings, and people in your organization while drafting documents
We’ve expanded what you can reference directly when creating or updating documents with Copilot in Word. This simplifies how you do any of the following:
-
Prepare a response to a request for proposal (RFP) using the RFP document and notes from customer meetings.
-
Write an ideal job acceptance letter based on information gathered from emails and recorded interviews.
Get more out of your meeting by including chat and spoken discussion
If you have many meetings each week (who doesn’t?) and need a thorough summary of discussions, Copilot in Teams now includes content from both the meeting chat and the transcript. This feature ensures that chat contributions are not overlooked and identifies their sources. It's ideal for frequent or large meetings where much of the discussion happens via chat.
Make file comparison less onerous using Copilot in OneDrive
If you've ever had to manually compare versions of documents, different contracts, or product offerings, it's now easier. With Copilot in OneDrive, you can choose up to five files and instantly view their key differences in a clear, side-by-side table.
