Copilot ​

Copilot works across both platforms. Here's how it breaks down:

Copilot in Microsoft 365 Apps ​

Available in Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook, and Teams on both Mac and Windows (requires a Copilot license):

  • Word: Draft documents, summarize, rewrite
  • Excel: Analyze data, create formulas, generate charts
  • PowerPoint: Create presentations from prompts or documents
  • Outlook: Draft replies, summarize email threads
  • Teams: Meeting summaries, catch-up on missed conversations

Works identically on both platforms.

Copilot in Edge / Web ​

copilot.microsoft.com works in any browser on any platform. Same Copilot experience in Safari on Mac as in Edge on Windows.

GitHub Copilot (for Developers) ​

Available in VS Code on both Mac and Windows. Same extension, same features:

bash
# Install VS Code
brew install --cask visual-studio-code

Then install the GitHub Copilot extension from the Extensions marketplace. Your subscription and settings sync across platforms via VS Code Settings Sync.
