Microsoft 365 Copilot Makes AI Accessible and Affordable

New features ease lesson planning and training and lowers the cost of AI tools for teachers and students.

Artificial intelligence tools are bringing new efficiencies to school districts, but they’re not always easy to access or afford. Many tools require subscriptions, which districts and families are unable to pay.

Microsoft offers a solution to this with no- or low-cost Copilot tools for educators. 

Introduced in March 2023, Microsoft 365 Copilot combines large language models (LLMs) with data in Microsoft Graph and Microsoft 365 apps. 

“With our new Copilot for work, we’re giving people more agency and making technology more accessible through the most universal interface — natural language,” Microsoft Chairman and CEO Satya Nadella said at the time.
