If you have Microsoft Copilot Pro, you can use Copilot GPT Builder to create and edit your own Copilot GPTs. A Copilot GPT is a custom version of Microsoft Copilot that can be used for specific purposes, such as for specialized knowledge, implementing specific processes, or simply to save time by reusing a set of AI prompts.
After you have created or edited your Copilot GPT, you can publish and share it with other people, even if they don't have a Copilot Pro license. You can also choose to stop sharing a Copilot GPT.
Currently, you can create, edit, and delete Copilot GPTs on your desktop computer. However, users can use and reshare Copilot GPTs on mobile devices and computers.
