“One of the challenges that many employees face in their daily work is creating and managing documents efficiently and effectively. Whether it is writing a report, a proposal, a memo, or a presentation, there are often multiple tasks involved, such as researching, drafting, editing, formatting, and sharing. These tasks can take up a lot of time and energy, especially if the documents are complex, lengthy, or require collaboration with others.

Microsoft 365 Copilot in Microsoft Word is a new feature that aims to help employees streamline their document creation and management process, by providing them with smart and personalized assistance.
