Microsoft 365 Copilot
Microsoft 365 Copilot is Microsoft's AI-powered productivity app for work, combining chat, content creation, file access, and collaboration tools.
What is Microsoft 365 Copilot?
Microsoft 365 Copilot is an AI-powered productivity app that helps people work with documents, email, meetings, files, and organizational knowledge in one place. It is designed for work and school use, especially for people who rely on Microsoft 365 services such as Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook, Teams, and OneDrive in their daily workflows. Users can ask questions in natural language, draft or revise content, summarize information, search across work files they already have access to, and collaborate around AI-assisted output. The app also supports agents and app integrations that extend how teams organize tasks and find information. On Mac, users may encounter it as part of a broader Microsoft 365 and cloud-based work environment rather than as a traditional offline-only desktop tool. Microsoft Corporation publishes the product.

Safety overview
Status: Mostly safe
This is legitimate Microsoft productivity software. It may handle work documents, account information, prompts, and activity data as part of its normal purpose, so the main consideration is using it with the right work or school account and being thoughtful about sensitive information you share in prompts. Network access, sign-in, and access to Microsoft 365 content are expected for this kind of app. If you use it for organizational work, follow your employer or school rules for AI tools and document sharing.
Recommendation: Keep Microsoft 365 Copilot if you use Microsoft 365 for work or school and want AI assistance with documents, communication, and search. If you do not use these services, you can remove it without affecting macOS itself, though Microsoft 365 Copilot features and related workflows will no longer be available on this Mac.
