Wikis overloaded with unnecessary details, never-ending presentations, and lengthy reports—we’ve all been there. When faced with overwhelming information, Microsoft Copilot steps in to provide quick, precise, and structured notes so you can focus on what truly matters.

What is Microsoft Copilot?

Microsoft Copilot is an AI-powered tool integrated into the Edge browser, designed to simplify your reading experience. Built on OpenAI’s GPT technology, Copilot enables users to summarize lengthy documents, emails, PDFs, and web pages within seconds. Best of all, it’s free to use on both desktop and mobile versions of the Microsoft Edge browser.

Putting Copilot to the Test

To see just how powerful Copilot’s summarization capabilities are, it was tasked with condensing a 294-slide presentation about Olive Garden’s corporate decisions in 2014—an exhaustive and intricate business report filled with financial insights and management critiques.

Back in 2014, employees had to manually sift through hundreds of slides. But with Copilot in 2025, AI-powered summarization makes it possible to extract the key takeaways in seconds.
