Microsoft’s Copilot Pro offers a few benefits for $20 per month, but the most helpful one is the AI-powered integration with the different Microsoft 365 apps. For those of you who use Microsoft Word, either the paid desktop version or the free web version, Copilot Pro can help you write and revise text, summarize your documents, and answer questions about any document.
To use Copilot Pro with the desktop version of Word, you’ll need a subscription to either Microsoft 365 Personal or Family. Priced at $70 per year, the Personal edition is geared toward one individual signed in to as many as five devices. At $100 per year, the Family edition is aimed at up to six people on as many as five devices. The core apps in the suite include Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook, and OneNote.
To use the AI tool with the free web version of Word, you need a Microsoft account to sign in to Microsoft 365 online.
