Imagine you have a personal assistant who helps you manage your files and documents. This assistant is always ready to assist you with various tasks, like finding information, organizing files, or summarizing content. In the digital world, this assistant is called Copilot, and it's being integrated into platforms like OneDrive, SharePoint, and Teams.

When you are working in OneDrive on the Web, you might notice a new button labeled "Copilot" when you select a file. Think of this button as a magic wand that offers you a menu of helpful actions you can perform on that file. These actions might include summarizing the document, extracting key points, or even suggesting ways to organize it better.

Now, this handy feature is expanding its reach to SharePoint document libraries and Teams. Picture a library as a big filing cabinet where all your documents are stored. With Copilot, when you view your documents in SharePoint or Teams, you can access the same helpful actions. It's like having your personal assistant follow you wherever you go, ready to lend a hand with your files.

This integration aims to make managing documents more efficient and less time-consuming, much like having a knowledgeable assistant who knows exactly what you need. By offering these capabilities directly within the platforms you use daily, Copilot helps streamline your workflow, allowing you to focus on more important tasks.
