How Microsoft 365 Copilot works

How Microsoft 365 Copilot works

Get personalized, context aware experiences as you work by harnessing the power of advanced large language models, the Microsoft Graph, and the internet with Microsoft 365 Copilot. By automating the retrieval of relevant information, Copilot eliminates the need for manual searches, allowing you to focus on what matters.

With a robust orchestration engine, Copilot integrates seamlessly with your Microsoft 365 apps, ensuring you only access data for which you have explicit permissions. It respects your privacy, wiping chat histories clean with each new conversation and never uses your data to train the model. Microsoft 365 Copilot is designed to enhance your productivity, delivering precise and informed responses right when you need them.
