description Copilot for Teams Overview

This Copilot feature acts as the meeting secretary and knowledge curator for Microsoft Teams. It attends meetings (with permission), transcribes everything, and then generates actionable summaries, key decisions, and assigned tasks automatically. It surfaces relevant files and past discussions from the associated Teams channel, ensuring no critical piece of information is lost in the chat history.

help Copilot for Teams FAQ

What does Copilot do inside Microsoft Teams meetings?

Microsoft 365 Copilot can summarize meetings, list decisions, identify action items, and answer questions about the transcript when meeting transcription is available. It works best when the organizer has the right Microsoft 365 and Copilot licensing in place.

Does Copilot for Teams secretly attend meetings?

No. Copilot depends on Teams meeting features such as transcription, recording, and organizer or tenant settings. Participants should see normal Teams indicators when transcription or recording is being used.

Can Copilot assign Teams tasks automatically?

It can extract suggested action items and owners from meeting discussion, but human review is still important. In Microsoft 365 environments, those notes can connect with tools such as Planner, Loop, or Teams chat depending on configuration.

Is Copilot for Teams included with every Microsoft Teams account?

No. It is part of Microsoft 365 Copilot licensing, not a free feature in every Teams plan. Microsoft has commonly sold Copilot as a paid per-user add-on for eligible business and enterprise subscriptions.
