Meet Copilot Cowork: A New Way of Getting Work Done
A new way to work through the projects that take days, not minutes. This video introduces Microsoft 365 Copilot Cowork, an AI tool built for long-running, multi-step work across your applications. Watch the video to see how Five Nines IT Solutions Inc. can help your nonprofit put Copilot Cowork to work.
Copilot Cowork is a new way to get ongoing work done inside Microsoft 365 Copilot. Instead of asking Copilot for a single response or document and then starting over, you can delegate long-running, multi-step tasks that unfold over minutes or even hours.
With Cowork, you’re not just generating one artifact (like a single email or slide deck). You’re asking an AI coworker to help manage a broader workflow, coordinate actions across apps, and produce real outputs as the work progresses—while you stay in the loop.
How does Copilot Cowork use my work context?
Copilot Cowork uses something called Work IQ to get a complete view of your work context. Instead of working from isolated prompts or small snippets of data, it can reason over all relevant materials available to it inside Microsoft 365.
This means Cowork can connect the dots between documents, emails, chats, and other content you already use every day. With that broader context, it can help you rethink and reimagine how you handle multi-step tasks, making its assistance more accurate and aligned with what you’re actually working on.
What kinds of tasks can Copilot Cowork handle?
Copilot Cowork is designed for tasks that don’t fit neatly into a single prompt or a single app. It’s well suited for work that:
- Requires multiple steps or decisions over time
- Needs to run for minutes or hours instead of seconds
- Spans multiple Microsoft 365 apps (for example, coordinating content across documents, emails, and other artifacts)
These tasks run securely inside Microsoft 365, and Cowork coordinates actions and produces outputs along the way. You stay informed as it progresses, so you can adjust direction, review results, and keep control of the overall outcome.
