Introducing Copilot for Microsoft 365
The transition to AI and a new way of working is well underway. Advanced AI technologies like Microsoft Copilot are poised to alleviate the challenges of constantly growing workloads and demands, while also paving the way for new avenues of learning and success.
Microsoft 365 Copilot is an AI assistant that can be
added to any existing user with a Business Standard,
Business Premium, or an E3 or E5 license. It is designed
to complement the Microsoft 365 suite and is the only
AI assistant available inside your applications like Word,
PowerPoint, and Excel.
Integrated into the apps you use everyday
Copilot in Outlook
Copilot in Outlook can enhance your email experience in several ways, from providing helpful summaries of lengthy and detailed emails, to drafting responses on your behalf, and filtering your emails so you see the most urgent and pressing items first.
Copilot in Word
Copilot in Word heralds a new era of writing, harnessing the capabilities of AI. It can guide you from a blank page to a completed document in a fraction of the time it would typically take to generate text independently.
Copilot in PowerPoint
Copilot in PowerPoint helps users draft impactful presentations with ease. Take advantage of its smart formatting, speaker note generation, and presentation summary capabilities.
Copilot in Excel
Understanding complex Excel formulas and generating graphs
from data can be challenging for those without a background in
accounting. Copilot simplifies this process, and can help with analysing and formatting your data.
Copilot in Teams
A stand out feature of Copilot in Teams is its ability to generate real-time summaries during calls to capture crucial details like dates,
names, and key points. If tasks are assigned, a list of action items
is created, ensuring you don’t miss any important responsibilities.
Ready to get started with Copilot?
Here’s what you’ll need to start benefiting from all that Copilot has to offer:
- Check your licenses – Copilot is only available for Business Standard or Business Premium licenses, so if you’re on a Business Basic license, you’ll need to upgrade first.
- Implement a secure data strategy – Ensuring your data is well-organised before deploying Copilot is essential for several reasons. One is privacy, especially when safeguarding sensitive information about your employees. You wouldn’t want unauthorised access to salary details or last month’s commissions being accessible.
