Microsoft’s handy AI tool, Copilot, is built into Microsoft 365 and assists with daily work, making particularly time-consuming tasks – like writing proposals, reading lots of emails and writing meeting minutes – much easier.
Copilot sits inside apps like Word, Outlook, Teams, Excel and PowerPoint to assist immediately with writing, summarising, designing and assessing information. It can pull data from other documents should you need to turn a Word document into an attractive presentation, for example.
Microsoft has also introduced Copilot agents, intelligent helpers designed to handle multi-step tasks with increased independence. Built through Copilot Studio, agents are given specific knowledge sources and permissions, enabling them to operate securely inside apps and complete tasks consistently, much like a colleague working alongside you.
Aside from Copilot being on hand when you are using your usual Microsoft 365 tools, it is also extremely secure and doesn’t use your business data to train its AI models, which is why we recommend it as the AI tool for businesses.
