Microsoft is enhancing Windows Copilot with Windows Copilot Pro and introducing Microsoft 365 Copilot to businesses of all sizes.
Windows Copilot and 365 Copilot are Microsoft’s newest AI digital assistants to aid users with a variety of chores and projects, which we first revealed last year, and they’re getting a significant boost with higher-tier AI features.
Microsoft officially launches Copilot Pro, which will be available for individual customers to subscribe to for $20 a month (per user) beginning today, January 16.
This version of Copilot will enable individuals to improve their productivity and user experience by leveraging the best of Copilot’s AI capabilities, capability, performance speed, and ability to access Copilot at peak hours.
This also grants customers with a Personal or Home membership access to Copilot Pro in Microsoft 365 products such as Word, Excel, and OneNote, as well as PowerPoint on PC, Mac, and iPad. This is identical to the existing Microsoft 365 Copilot for enterprise clients, which needs an enterprise membership; however, these Copilot AI capabilities will now be available to Microsoft 365 Personal and Family subscribers.
The best of Copilot’s offerings
If you join up for Copilot Pro, you will have priority access to the most recent OpenAI models, such as OpenAI’s cutting-edge GPT-4 Turbo, as well as the ability to design and customize your own Copilot GPT bot to a topic of your choice.
Copilot Pro will provide consumers more control over how and what they do by allowing them to switch between models and experiment with different choices to improve their experience.
Users will be able to create and shape their personalized Copilot GPTs in a fresh new Copilot GPT Builder (identical to the commercial version released last year) by answering a few simple prompts, and Microsoft promises it will be available soon.
You may also expect Microsoft to update their AI image generation with Image Creator from Designer (previously known as Bing Image Creator). With Copilot Pro, you will receive one hundred boosts (faster image creation processes), increased image detail and quality, and the landscape image format.
Along with the launch of Copilot Pro for individual use, Copilot for Microsoft 365 will be offered to a broader range of commercial customers, notably small and medium-sized organizations. Copilot subscriptions will now be available through Microsoft partners with no employee minimum, cheaper prerequisites, and increased availability.
New updates to Copilot and a new Copilot app
For those who want to continue exploring with Copilot for free, there is something to be aware of. The free edition of Copilot now includes Copilot GPTs, which let you to personalize and tailor a Copilot to discuss a specific topic of your choice. Today, you should be able to see some of the already existing subjects, such as fitness, travel, and cuisine.
In addition to these advancements, Copilot will be available on iOS and Android, as well as the Microsoft 365 mobile app. With these new apps, you’ll be able to have a single AI run across your devices, capable of analyzing information from your online usage, PC usage, and the apps you use to Make its assistance more context-dependent.
The Copilot app includes the same strong tools as the PC version, including GPT-4, Dall-E 3’s image generating capabilities, and the ability to enter your own images and have Copilot respond to them.
Copilot will be added to the Microsoft 365 app on iOS and Android smartphones over the next month for Microsoft account holders, allowing them to export the content they generate as a Word or PDF document. Microsoft’s ambition is that you would be able to summon Copilot almost instantaneously, whenever you need it, regardless of which device you are currently using.
Microsoft is only getting started
It also appears that many more Copilot Pro capabilities are in the works, similar to how we’ve seen numerous enhancements to the ordinary version of Copilot in Windows 11. Speaking with The Verge, Divya Kumar described Microsoft’s current release timetable as “rolling thunder.”
With Copilot Pro, Microsoft hopes to attract the attention of “power users like creators, researchers, programmers, and others” who may be interested in the latest developments that it and its collaborator OpenAI have to offer.
Microsoft recently overtook Apple as the world’s most valuable firm, and it shows no signs of slowing down. Microsoft’s Executive Vice President and Consumer Chief Marketing Officer, Yusuf Mehdi, asserts that Copilot enables “every person and organization on the planet to achieve more.” If there is a reason why you would want or perhaps require digital support or advice, it is evident that Microsoft is happy to satisfy your needs.
