Copilot Cowork: A new way of getting work done

If you have used Copilot, you have seen how quickly it can help you find an answer or draft an email. The next step is just as important: turning that intent into real actions across Microsoft 365. Copilot Cowork makes it easy to delegate work. Describe the outcome you want and Cowork automatically grounds the work in your emails, meetings, messages, files, and data.

Meet the updated Copilot Notebooks experience: Your home for understanding work, projects, and more

Microsoft is announcing the general availability of the refreshed Copilot Notebooks experience across Microsoft 365 Copilot app and OneNote. With an updated three-column layout and powerful Copilot features like Audio Overview, Copilot Notebooks are your workspace for gathering and thinking on a topic or project over time.

Bringing AI assistance to basic plans in Microsoft Planner

The Project Manager Agent in Microsoft Planner has been officially renamed to "Planner Agent," and its powerful AI-driven features will be generally available across both plan types. This means that basic and premium plan users with a Microsoft 365 Copilot license will have access to intelligent Planner Agent capabilities that help streamline project management and task work.
