More than 2,700 Microsoft 365 customers joined us at the Microsoft 365 Community Conference in Orlando to learn what’s new across Microsoft 365.
In one of our sessions, AI‑Forward Content Creation & Curation for the Modern Intranet, we shared how SharePoint is evolving from a place where employees find information, to a platform that helps teams create and keep it current. New AI capabilities now in public preview can generate and edit pages from natural language, helping you move from an idea to structured, publish-ready content faster.
Because SharePoint content helps ground Microsoft 365 Copilot and agents, quality and consistency matter. Below, we’ll walk through the AI features across two areas: creation (drafting and visual storytelling) and curation (keeping your intranet accurate, relevant, and trustworthy over time).
AI in SharePoint: An overview - Microsoft Support
Create and edit pages with AI
First up: creating and refining pages directly in SharePoint.
You can engage with SharePoint’s AI capabilities from multiple entry points: select the floating action button in the lower right corner of a site, start from the template gallery, create new pages directly from a site, or navigate to the Publish tab to update recently created pages.
Once in Edit mode, AI becomes your coauthor—you can use chat to make page edits like adding, moving, updating, and formatting your content for you. Describe what the page should include, and SharePoint can generate a structured first draft.
This experience is intentionally iterative: you can switch back and forth between traditional page building (choosing layouts, adding web parts, and fine-tuning design) and AI-assisted authoring (drafting, rewriting, summarizing, or restructuring) until the page looks and reads exactly the way you want.
Visual storytelling with charts
Communicating clearly often means communicating visually. With AI‑generated charts in SharePoint, authors can describe what they need in plain language and add rich, interactive charts directly to a page.
Charts can be grounded in existing documents and refined through multi‑turn interaction, helping teams turn complex information into content that’s easier to understand and act on, without requiring design expertise.
Improve your site
Creation is only half the story. AI in SharePoint goes further—delivering intelligent, automated content curation that helps site owners continuously maintain intranet quality at scale with minimal manual effort. Embedded directly into the SharePoint experience, “Improve your site” leverages user behavior, search insights, and page analytics to surface targeted, action‑oriented recommendations—with one‑click actions, bulk updates, and the ability to learn from user decisions over time.
Capabilities include:
- Retiring low‑activity or outdated pages (individually or in bulk) to reduce clutter and improve content relevance and search quality
- Identifying content gaps based on employee search intent and unresolved queries, with AI‑assisted content creation to fill them
- Fixing broken links and navigation issues to remove friction and improve user experience
- Enhancing content quality through recommendations to update, rewrite, or restructure pages for clarity, engagement, and accessibility
- Improving site discoverability with suggestions for keywords, metadata, navigation, and featured content (e.g., search pinning and best bets)
With these insights available on demand, SharePoint helps ensure the content Copilot and agents reason over remains up to date, relevant, and aligned with how employees actually search and work—without introducing additional governance processes or tools.

Content Readiness Is the Foundation for Better AI Outcomes
AI capabilities in SharePoint will continue to advance, but content quality, structure, freshness, and governance remain the foundation of effective AI experiences. By making it easier to both create and curate content, SharePoint helps organizations strengthen content trust today while enriching AI experiences and Work IQ across Microsoft 365.
The result is higher quality answers, better decision making, and greater productivity, for both people and the AI systems that rely on SharePoint content.
