Description

Microsoft Copilot is an AI-powered assistant built directly into Microsoft 365 tools like Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook, and Teams. It helps you summarize content, generate drafts, analyze data, and much more — all within the apps you already use. MIT provides access to Copilot via its enterprise Microsoft 365 license for eligible users. Copilot uses large language models (LLMs) to help you draft, edit, explore, and create faster—whether you’re summarizing meetings, writing reports, or generating insights from spreadsheets.

Canvas Integration
