  • Generates formulas, charts, and pivot tables from natural language prompts.
  • Features agentic capabilities for suggesting scenarios and identifying trends.

Considerations

  • Full access needs a Copilot add-on or Microsoft 365 Premium; other eligible plans get standard access without model switching.
  • On iPhone and Android it offers chat mode only as of October 2026; workbook edit mode is still rolling out.
  • Primarily focused on the Microsoft ecosystem.

Price

Included in Microsoft 365 Personal ($9.99/month), Family ($12.99/month) and Premium ($19.99/month); Microsoft 365 Copilot for business is a $30 per user/month add-on
