What Microsoft 365 Copilot is and where things live

  • Copilot is Microsoft's AI assistant for work. You type a request, called a prompt, and it writes, summarizes or answers in plain language.
  • Open it at copilot.cloud.microsoft, in the Microsoft Copilot app, or with the Copilot icon in Outlook, Teams and Edge. Sign in with your work account.
  • Check the label next to your name in the left pane. Work and a green shield mean enterprise data protection: your company's contract with Microsoft covers your prompts and answers.
  • Most work accounts get Copilot Chat, which answers from the web and from files you add. A paid Microsoft 365 Copilot license also reads your email, meetings and files for you.
  • At home you might use Copilot on a personal Microsoft account, with or without a Microsoft 365 Personal or Family plan. It shows Personal, so keep work data out of it.

Home is where you chat. Your account label sits next to your name. The left pane can differ while Microsoft rolls out a new layout.
