Copilot

Microsoft 365 Copilot helps people work with content, context, and prompts across Microsoft 365.

Best For

Use Copilot to summarize, draft, compare, brainstorm, transform content, and find patterns across work you already have access to.

Be Careful With

Copilot reflects your permissions and your content quality. Poor file ownership, unclear permissions, and outdated documents will reduce the value of AI assistance.

Data Protection And Compliance

Microsoft Purview can add classification, sensitivity labels, DLP, Audit, Communication Compliance, eDiscovery, retention, and data-security posture capabilities to supported Copilots, agents, and other AI apps. Coverage and configuration differ by app and agent, and some scenarios require additional licensing or pay-as-you-go billing. Verify the exact experience in Microsoft's current Purview guidance for generative AI.

Purview supplements the foundation; it does not repair excessive permissions, unclear ownership, or obsolete source content.
