The AI OS Your Everyday Companion.
Microsoft Copilot

While OpenAI pursues AGI and Google chases search dominance, Microsoft has focused on one thing: Work. Copilot is less of a "chatty friend" and more of a hyper-competent executive assistant that lives inside Word, PowerPoint, and VS Code.

The 365 Advantage

The killer feature of Copilot isn't the model (it uses GPT-4 Turbo); it's the Graph API connection.

Unlike ChatGPT, where you have to paste text in, Copilot lives where you work. In PowerPoint, you can type "Create a 10-slide deck based on this Word document," and it builds it—images, bullet points, and speaker notes included. In Excel, it can write complex Python formulas to visualize data without you knowing a line of code.

Benchmarks: Office Olympics

We tested Copilot Pro against Google Gemini Advanced (Workspace) and ChatGPT Team in common office tasks.

Coding & GitHub Integration

For developers, "Copilot" means something different: GitHub Copilot. Microsoft has merged the chat experience.

• Workspace Awareness: It understands your entire repository, not just the open file.
• CLI Integration: You can ask Copilot to write terminal commands or explain complex regex directly in the CLI.
• Pull Request Summaries: It auto-generates descriptions for your PRs, saving hours of documentation time.

Pricing Plans

Microsoft has a complex tier structure, separating consumer use from enterprise security.

Final Verdict

If you live in the Microsoft ecosystem, Copilot Pro is a no-brainer. It removes the friction of copy-pasting between a chatbot and your documents. For everyone else, the Free web version is a capable, if slightly cluttered, alternative to ChatGPT.
