# Microsoft rebuilds Copilot as one app for chat, Office and agents

Microsoft unveiled a redesigned Copilot app that combines chat, an app-building tool, always-on helpers called Autopilot, and full Word, Excel and PowerPoint.

Microsoft unveiled a redesigned Copilot app that combines chat, an app-building tool, always-on helpers called Autopilot, and full Word, Excel and PowerPoint. Users can choose OpenAI or Anthropic models. Office in Copilot is rolling out to consumers over the coming weeks.

**Why it matters to you:** If your workplace uses Microsoft 365, more AI is arriving inside the apps you already use every day.
