Microsoft Copilot for small businesses

Copilot works inside the Microsoft apps a business already uses and can draw on its own emails, meetings and files. That makes it strong at summarizing a Teams meeting, finding what a client agreed across email and chat, and analyzing an Excel sheet without exporting anything. It needs a Microsoft 365 business plan as well as the Copilot add-on.

What Microsoft Copilot is best at

  • Teams meeting summaries

    Summarizes who said what and suggests action items, during or after a Teams meeting, with transcription switched on. Needs a Copilot license.

  • Excel analysis

    Analyzes and charts data in Excel from a plain-English question. Needs the Copilot Business add-on, £16.10 per user a month paid yearly, excluding VAT.

  • Answers across email, chat and files

    Ask what was agreed with a client and Copilot searches Outlook, Teams and work files the person can already see. The full version needs a Copilot license.

  • Word and PowerPoint drafts

    Drafts and summarizes Word documents and turns them into PowerPoint slides, on the Copilot Business add-on.

  • Free Copilot Chat

    Eligible Microsoft 365 business plans include Copilot Chat at no extra cost, with enterprise data protection, for drafting and file questions.
