Announcing Copilot Pages for multiplayer collaboration (original) (raw)
Blog Post
Microsoft 365 Copilot
3 MIN READ
Today we announced Copilot Pages, the first step in our new design system for knowledge work. Copilot Pages is a dynamic, persistent canvas in Copilot chat designed for multiplayer AI collaboration. With Pages, you can turn insightful Copilot responses into something durable with a side-by-side page that you can edit and, when ready, share with your team to collaborate. Copilot Pages starts rolling out today for Microsoft 365 Copilot users and soon for all other Microsoft 365 subscribers.
If you have a Microsoft 365 Copilot license, you and your team can work with Copilot directly on the page when you open it in full screen. In a multiplayer approach, prompt Copilot together as a team to improve and expand responses, learn from each other’s prompts, and organize complex information. With Copilot Pages, human to AI interactions come to life. We see collaborative prompting as the next great step forward in evolving Copilot from an individual, point-in-time exercise into a collaborative experience.
Here's how you can use Copilot Pages.
- Access Copilot at Microsoft.com/Copilot. If you have an M365 Copilot license, you can also access Copilot in Teams and Outlook.
- Chat with Copilot as you usually would. Once you receive a response you'd like to keep, click 'Edit in Pages'. This will create a page and open it side-by-side the chat with the response already copied and formatted, including link previews and code blocks. A reference to the page will automatically be added in the chat.
- Add and refine. You can continue your conversation in chat. Clicking 'Edit in Pages' will add subsequent responses to the bottom of the page. Everything on the page is editable - just click on the page and start typing. Pro tip: type "/" to view a menu of content types that you can use.
- Share and collaborate. When you are ready, you can share your page with others who will be able to collaborate on it with you. People you share with will have access to the page and its content, not your Copilot session. If you and your team have a Microsoft 365 Copilot license, you can view the page in full screen to use Copilot directly within the page, adding to each other's prompts and collaborating on a final output. Pro tip: Click the share icon in the upper right and select "Copy component" to surface the page in a fully interactive way when you paste it in Teams or Outlook.
- Access your pages. Return to your page at any time by clicking the link in the chat where you first created the page or by opening the Pages tab in Microsoft365.com, where you will see all the Pages that you previously created.
Key Features
- Persistent: Copilot Pages takes ephemeral AI-generated content and makes it durable, allowing you to edit and add to it.
- Shareable: Any page you create can be shared as a dynamic, collaborative element in your Teams chats and channels, Outlook emails and meetings, or in the Pages module in the Microsoft M365 app.
- Multiplayer: Work collaboratively with your teammates. See everyone’s work in real time and iterate on Copilot prompts as a team if you have a Microsoft 365 Copilot license.
Here is a short animation will show you how the feature works:

I would like to know (more exactly) as well, but Microsoft AFAIK has not shared anything more than in the coming weeks, after their Wave 2 announcements on Sept 16th.
See: Microsoft 365 Copilot Wave 2: Pages, Python in Excel, and agents | Microsoft 365 Blog
"In the coming weeks, we’re also bringing Copilot Pages to the more than 400 million people who have access to the free Microsoft Copilot when they’re signed in with a Microsoft Entra account—offering the combination of web grounding, enterprise data protection (EDP), and Pages."
When will this be released for users who only use Microsoft 365 (not Microsoft 365 Copilot)?
hi EugeneNELL and all! We have now rolled out Copilot Pages to 100% of customers with Microsoft 365 Copilot (for work) licenses. If you have the license, you should now be able to use Copilot Pages when you're on the Work tab in Copilot. Thanks for your patience and I hope you enjoy working with it!
hi Manon_Knoertzer unfortunatly the Copilot Pages diappeared completly from all the tenants i am working with (all with a M365 Copilot license). So are there any updates running or any plans when the pages will be available again? This is a realy nice feature to use, pls bring it back quickly!

Nice to see another Walther working the M365 stack (I recruited my brother as well).
I'm not seeing it in my tenant either.
It showed up today in both my employer and customer tenant.
Do you see Pages in the left hand menu bar on office.com
Than it should be in M365 Copilot as well:
Has this started rolling out yet? It's been 3 weeks?? So much for creating something and then it takes weeks to roll out. Not good.

**Core Functionality**
At its core, Co-Pilot Pages uses Co-Pilot Chat and Microsoft Loop to enable swift content creation and sharing through a prebuilt workflow.
**No New Technology**

**Easy Content Iteration**

**Conclusion and Encouragement**
The speaker clarifies the functionality and encourages users to leverage this integration, highlighting the benefits of using Loop for team management.
ScottParramore, I guess your perspective is different than mine. I see customer embracing M365 Copilot in their own pace. I admit, I also see customer sprinkle licenses around and get disappointed. But through providing guidance and support, I see them get enthusiastic again.
M365 Copilot is great for customer that have their data stored in M365 (Office documents, E-mails, Teams meetings and messages etc) and therefore can directly leverage all this wealth using GenAI using OpenAI's LLM... through Microsoft 365 Copilot.
Also, when customers have decent Data Governance, apply sensitivity labels and encryption it is also a great way to keep data safe and secure.
Customers not on M365, but still largely on-premise will have challenging times and can benefit from other solutions.
