Microsoft 365 Copilot: AI-Powered Assistance in Teams
Harness Copilot’s power of generative AI directly from Teams. From summarising and automating comms to providing expert knowledge, analytics, and creative support, Copilot simplifies, speeds up and enriches daily Teams tasks.
- AI-generated summaries.
- Data analysis.
- Task automation.
- AI-powered collaboration.
Copilot enhances productivity at all levels within Teams. Sales can use AI to summarise large threads, multiple attachments or long documents, then craft more engaging client communications to improve conversions. Similarly, senior leaders can analyse chats and threads to check key decisions and gain actionable insights in a fraction of the time.
Copilot also handles administrative tasks with ease. It can automatically schedule meetings and follow-ups and draft messages within the Teams app. With the time saved from the digital debt, colleagues can get more done and have more time for strategic work.
The creative elements of GenAI will also aid collaboration across departments. Product development teams can use Copilot on a call or virtual meeting to discuss creative improvements with real-time AI suggestions. And then create notes to present to stakeholders, including tables of the pros and cons of ideas discussed in Teams. Because Copilot is context aware and uses natural language, quick, simple questions can prompt a wide range of meaningful responses.
