Microsoft is announcing a fresh Copilot Pages feature today that promises to be a canvas for “multiplayer AI collaboration.” Copilot Pages lets you utilize Microsoft’s Copilot chatbot and drag and drop replies onto a fresh page where you can edit them with others.
“You and your team can collaborate on a page with Copilot, seeing everyone’s work in real time, and iterating with Copilot as a partner, adding more content from your data, files, and networks to your page,” says Jared Spataro, vice president of AI at Work at Microsoft. “It’s a completely new paradigm for working—multiplayer, human-AI-human collaboration.”
Pages is starting to roll out to Microsoft 365 Copilot customers today and will be generally available to all subscribers later this month. It builds on Microsoft’s partnership with Loop, a Notion competitor that includes futuristic, Lego-like Office docs.
You can share Copilot Pages with a link, and colleagues can immediately start editing them, just like they would a shared Word document. You can also embed Copilot Pages into other pages as components. Because it’s tied into Microsoft’s fresh BizChat, the Copilot Work Hub, you can also pull in data from the web or work files to create a project plan, meeting notes, business proposal, and more. Microsoft sees Copilot Pages as a fresh paradigm for working that incorporates human and AI input into a single workspace.
Microsoft is also rolling out Copilot Pages to more than 400 million people, who can access the company’s free Copilot chatbot by signing in with their company’s Microsoft Entra account. This is part of a broader Copilot for Business program that includes improvements to the AI assistant across Office apps. More information about the Office app improvements can be found here.
Microsoft 365 Copilot subscribers will also have access to a fresh agent creator in Copilot Studio. “Now, anyone can quickly create a Copilot agent directly in BizChat or SharePoint, unlocking the value of the vast repository of knowledge stored in SharePoint files,” Spataro says. Agents are designed to appear as virtual colleagues in Teams or Outlook, allowing you to @mention them and ask them questions.
