Hello again, Insiders! We are Alicia Al-AryanOby Omu, and Patrick Gan, program managers on the Microsoft 365 Copilot app team. We’re passionate about helping people learn how to use Copilot to make work easier, get more productive, and stay on top of everyday tasks, which is the inspiration behind our video series. If you haven't seen it yet, check out Part 1: Getting started with the Copilot app.

The videos we have created for Part 2 demonstrate how the Microsoft 365 Copilot app can help you get through your workday. This series is for you if you have ever started your day thinking, Where do I even start?” 

How the Microsoft 365 Copilot app fits into a busy workday

The topics of these short videos tackle a common reality for many of us: with work spread across meetings, files, chats, and ongoing projects, getting oriented can take more time than expected. Each episode focuses on a simple, everyday moment where Copilot can help you quickly understand what’s going on and decide what to do next.

📸 Video 1 | Start your day with Chat

Use Chat to get a quick snapshot of your day: upcoming meetings, tasks, recent updates, and anything you might have missed, all in one place.

Presenter: Caroline Chen

👀 Video 2 | Preview files before opening them

File Preview Cards can help you quickly understand what’s in a file without needing to open it. Find what you’re looking for fast without opening a bunch of files!  

Presenter: David Stephens

⚡ Video 3 | Catch up on meetings with video highlights

When you miss a meeting (or just need the gist), this video highlights how Copilot surfaces key moments from a meeting recording—no speed‑watching required.

📖 Video 4 | Pull project context together with Copilot Notebooks

The final episode shows how Copilot Notebooks bring related documents, meetings, and references into one place, helping you get up to speed on a project faster.

Together, these short videos are meant to reflect real workdays — the moments where you’re trying to catch up, regain context, or refocus — and show how the Copilot app fits into those moments in practical ways.

If you haven’t checked them out yet, they’re quick to watch and easy to skim between meetings.
