Launching Copilot Tasks, a new way to get stuff done! Tasks is the best of models with access to the best of Microsoft (Edge, Browser, Infra). It's your consumer grade clawdbot but on cloud. The models are here, and Microsoft has the tools to make the most powerful personal productivy agent. You can build docs, slides and sheets OR ask it to do real world chores you hate to do yourself. This is what a personal assistant should be. Go to copilot.com/tasks/preview to get on the waitlist!

@jacobandreou @EverydayAI_ Let me DM you

@EverydayAI_ Yikes! @ankitdp_ PTAL

@jacobandreou @EverydayAI_ Hey Jordan! Glad to have you back! Are you trying to login with your custom Google domain account?

Tasks fixed 2 subscriptions I was double paying for today!! Try now and let us know!

Your productivity era starts now. Signed up for the waitlist in the U.S.? You now have access to Copilot Tasks. Not on it yet? Sign up so you're ready when your spot opens up. msft.it/6013QqEhN

Top 3!!!!

@designedbyabin OF COURSE! Dm me

@ankitdp_ Can you pass on a FigJam full of Copilot feedback if I send it your way? 🤔

All right, lets get our Copilots together

@designedbyabin Gotta solve for the different looking copilots for sure

@ankitdp_ Maybe start by removing the Inflection Design language and go all in on existing Fluent UI. Focus on improving actual usability of the product over just adding a new visual language.

Starting a new chapter today and stepping in to bring Consumer and Commercial Copilot together into one org. One team, one product, one experience. Grateful to @mustafasuleyman and @satyanadella for the opportunity. Let's build.

@stovallATL Checking. Did you say you got no confirmation of being on the waitlist ?

I am curious to see this Copilot tasks that I've heard about with comparisons to OpenClaw. What will the quality and usability be? The "join the waitlist" for functionality didn't appear to work or give me a confirmation, but hoping to try it out soon as it moves beyond preview.

Tasks now has SMS support! Just delegate via text and get notified when it's finished. And scheduled tasks can run on your behalf, one-off or recurring. Getting great feedback from early testers (more features coming soon) so join the wait list now: copilot.microsoft.com/tasks/preview?…

@maciejewskii0 @satyanadella 👍

@ankitdp_ @satyanadella start fresh

I’ve been trying Copilot Tasks this week, and it’s awesome to assign tasks (even recurring) in this cowork mode and have them completed end to end autonomously and use Agent mode to refine and iterate on the outputs. A couple of examples ...

@yashjitp Yes!

@ankitdp_ Hii! Did it start rolling out? Haven't seen anyone using it

Let's go! Kicking off tasks with SMS is an insane unlock. It's the right kind of async channel. True delegation should feel like it needs just this amount of minimal UI.

@jgrimesey More. Lots more coming.

@ankitdp_ Microsoft with clean UI? A new leaf

@maciejewskii0 @satyanadella Can do either. Which one do you prefer?

@satyanadella does it maintain context between recurring tasks or start fresh every time?

@jeet_exist Everything is latest in tasks :)

@ankitdp_ excited to try it out, joined the waitlist. before that, we need latest models in copilot (like GPT-5.2/5.3) for reasoning tasks, and the latest smart mode doesn't reason at all.

Let's talk about what makes Copilot Tasks awesome to use and an impressive technical feat (aka what I mean by best of model capabilities meeting best of Microsoft): 1. Planning & reasoning that fully leverages model intelligence: Copilot has all the right tools to do big tasks - it creates multi-step plans, hands over critical actions back to you for consent, handles steering anytime, manages extremely large context, and uses tools without getting stuck or confused. But what really makes it stand out is its ability to get the task done autonomously and creatively without taking unnecessary steps. It feels like the perfect balance between try-hard and just-get-it-done that you want from an agent. 2. Stateful remote Edge browser: Copilot uses a best-in-class browser for agents to use (this was an insane technical feat!). It's much faster than anything out there, remembers you and your auth (with your permission), gives you ways to takeover, and runs on the cloud. You can ask Copilot to buy things for you without worrying about keeping your laptop open. 3. AI editors: Building presentations, spreadsheets and documents is hard. We have a decade-long expectation for how these artifacts should look: richness, formatting, best use of images, charts, graphs, infographics. Copilot uses a computer to build all these things and provides the UX for you to co-create with it. 4. Cloud compute for executing code: For all hard things, Copilot writes code and executes it in a sandbox to get work done. Giving the power of Microsoft's cloud compute infra to Copilot makes it shine in magical ways. 5. Personal context from connectors & memory: You manage your life using mail, calendar and files but they are hard to use. We've made Copilot use these apps for extracting personal context relevant to your task. Copilot also remembers what you ask it to and uses it intelligently. So when you say book me an uber to get me to the airport on time, it just finds your flight tickets, gets traffic data, books the uber for just the right time. 6. Getting the right UX for agents: You want to be able to delegate tasks and get autonomous execution. You want to be able to do it from anywhere. You want to supervize but not in overloaded 1000s of thoughts, messages and boxes. Tasks are usable by everyone. This is a theme I've deeply cared about since I built Canvas. And we're gonna bring this to every surface you see Copilot on. Our Research Preview is already being tried by the first batch of users. Can't wait for many more of you to get access to what the team has built!
