The launch of Copilot follows Google's release of its own AI tools, Duet AI, in Google Workspace, which offers similar features at the same price. Microsoft also plans to launch a version of Copilot across all its apps and services, making similar features available even to those without 365 Copilot.
Key takeaways:
- Microsoft’s 365 Copilot AI assistant will be available from November 1st for certain business and enterprise plans, but it will cost an additional $30 per month per user.
- Copilot can help business users summarize documents, create emails, generate new Word projects, highlight key points from Teams meetings, and provide Excel data visualizations and projections.
- Google has also recently launched its own AI tools, Duet AI, in Google Workspace, offering similar features to Microsoft's Copilot at the same price point.
- Microsoft is also launching a version of Copilot across all of its apps and services, so users without 365 Copilot will still see similar features.
