Microsoft Copilot is built into the software you already use every day. This is the book that finally explains how to use it.
Copilot is in Word. It's in Excel. It's in PowerPoint, Outlook, Teams, Edge, Windows, and a free standalone app you can open right now. Microsoft has shipped one of the most ambitious AI rollouts in tech history - and most of the people who pay for it have no idea what most of it actually does.
This book changes that.
Copilot: The Workplace AI Guide is the comprehensive, plain-English guide to Microsoft Copilot in 2026 - every plan, every app, every feature. Written for real people doing real work, not for IT specialists or AI researchers, it covers what each tool does, when to use it, and how to write prompts that actually produce useful output.
What's inside:
- Get oriented and set up. What Copilot is (and isn't), how to choose between Free Copilot, Copilot Pro, Microsoft 365 Premium, and the Business and Enterprise tiers, and how to set Copilot up on Windows, mobile, Edge, and Microsoft 365.
- Master the core skills. Writing, research with Bing-grounded citations, everyday productivity, and professional use - from drafting emails and proposals to interview prep and trip planning, with concrete walkthroughs.
- Use Copilot inside every M365 app. Word for documents and proposals. Excel for analysis, formulas, and Python in Excel. PowerPoint for presentations from prompts and source documents. Outlook for email triage, drafting, and calendar help. Teams for meetings, transcription, and channel agents.
- Unlock the rest of the platform. Image generation with Designer. Pages and Notebooks for collaborative AI canvases. Think Deeper for extended reasoning. Copilot Vision for screen and browser understanding. The Model Selector and the three conversation modes (Auto, Quick Response, Think Deeper).
- Get better results. Prompting fundamentals tailored to Copilot's strengths, strategies for long and complex tasks, and output formatting that's ready to paste straight into your work.
- Make it work for your world. Targeted chapters for students and educators, business teams and admins (including Microsoft 365 Copilot deployment and governance), and developers using GitHub Copilot's five-tier lineup with multi-model support.
- Stay safe and informed. Honest coverage of what Copilot gets wrong, how Microsoft's commercial data protection actually works, and the ethics of using AI assistance in academic and professional settings.
- 75+ ready-to-use prompt templates organized by category - Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook, Teams, research, and more.
Whether you've been ignoring the Copilot button for a year or you're rolling Copilot out across a team, this is the book that turns I have a license into I actually use it every day.
Includes coverage of GPT-5.2, GPT-5.4, GPT-5.4 Thinking, Copilot Vision, Copilot Pages, Designer, Microsoft 365 Copilot for Business and Enterprise, GitHub Copilot's 2026 tiers, and every workplace feature shipped through May 2026.
