Didn’t hit “Accept” on that meeting invite? No problem—Copilot has you covered!
What can Copilot do? Copilot can pull details from any meeting that’s on your calendar—even if your status is not responded, tentative, or even declined (as long as you kept it there).
It gives you:
- Agenda and objectives
- Key discussion points
- Action items
- Related files and emails
Keep in mind:
- If the meeting isn’t on your calendar, Copilot can’t summarize it.
- Declined meetings? Still okay—if you marked them as “follow” or kept them visible.
Copilot Insights in Outlook gives you everything you need to get ready—fast!
Open a calendar event in Outlook (web, Windows, Mac, or mobile) to get started!
