Copilot in PowerPoint

Copilot in PowerPoint is one of the weaker tools in the Copilot toolkit. It can help you produce text content from an idea or an existing document, but as of today it can't actually make changes in PowerPoint or produce anything much beyond basic text slides.

Copilot in PowerPoint requires Copilot Premium.

What it's best at

Copilot works best when you already have something to work from. A Word document with clear headings, an existing deck or a fairly concrete brief gives you far better results than a loose idea. From there it can help with structure, summaries and rewrites, but in practice you still have to copy the text from the chat window into the slide yourself.
