Microsoft Copilot

What it does

Copilot's free tier is a web chatbot similar to other AI assistants, but its real differentiator sits behind the paid Microsoft 365 add-on, where it can draft a Word document from a prompt, build an Excel formula from a plain-language request, summarize an Outlook inbox, or generate meeting notes and action items directly from a Teams call transcript.
