Copilot Labs

Be among the first to experience new Copilot features and help us shape the future of Copilot. Copilot Pro subscribers will have access to Copilot Labs to try experimental AI features before they are generally available.

Think Deeper

When you Think Deeper with Copilot you can get help working through complex life events or even a tricky coding or math problem. With better reasoning capability, Think Deeper spends more time considering your scenario and replies with a more comprehensive response.

Think Deeper is now available to Copilot Pro subscribers. Look for the ‘Think Deeper’ button while using Copilot.

Copilot Vision

Copilot Vision is the first AI experience of its kind, available only on Microsoft Edge. It is a new way to invite AI along with you as you navigate the web, tucked neatly into the bottom of your Edge browser whenever you want to ask for help. It’s almost like having a second set of eyes as you browse, just turn on Copilot Vision to instantly scan, analyze, and offer insights based on what it sees.

We have begun selectively inviting a group of Copilot Pro subscribers in the United States to experience Copilot Vision through our new Copilot Labs program. We’re taking our time to garner feedback, iterate on the technology, and will expand access to more Copilot Pro customers over time.

  • No, Copilot Vision is not always on. Vision will only be active when you initiate a Vision session. On your first time opening Vision, you must read and acknowledge the privacy notice. When a Vision session is ongoing, your browser frame will have a hue indicating that you are in an active Vision session. When you close the Edge window, your Vision session ends.

    To use Vision again, click on the Copilot entry point at the bottom center of the Edge browser screen to get to the Composer. Click on the right most icon in the Composer to start a session with Vision. If you want to end a session, you may do so by clicking on the x button to exit the Vision session or closing the Edge window.
  • Only the model responses are being logged to enable monitoring of unsafe interactions and outputs. User inputs, images, and context will not be logged or stored.
  • No. No image, context, or user conversations are retained, transcribed, or logged. Once the session ends, all such data is deleted.
  • No, we are not capturing, storing or using any data from publishers to train our models. Once the Copilot Vision session ends all user input data is deleted.

    During this preview period we will gather feedback on how people want to use Vision, including if they would want its help viewing private and personal information. We continue to prioritize user preferences and privacy as we build an experience that gives people control over what they want Copilot Vision to see.
  • No. Copilot Vision will not limit behaviors on the browser in any way. It simply functions as an AI companion as you browse and can be invoked when you want Copilot's help.
  • Security and digital safety are top priorities for Microsoft. Copilot Vision will not be accessible on offensive and harmful sites, and Copilot cannot be used for harmful, offensive, and illegal topics. To learn more visit Empowering responsible AI practices | Microsoft AI.
  • At this time Vision is only a part of the consumer Copilot offering. You are required to be signed in on your personal MSA account in Edge to use these Copilot features.
  • Copilot Vision and Recall are different features with different goals in mind:

    • Vision works strictly in the context of your Edge browser. You can turn this feature on when you want Copilot's assistance with a page you have open. Vision will not 'remember' content from past browsing sessions. One way to turn Vision off, besides turning it off in the Copilot composer, is to simply close out of the Edge browser window. Future browsing sessions will not reference past browsing activity.
    • Recall is a feature that will only be supported on Copilot+ PCs. For Copilot+ PC users who opt in, Recall takes encrypted snapshots of a user's PC screen across apps, websites, images, or documents. Snapshots are then locally stored and locally analyzed on the user's device. Recall will operate like the user's own virtual, private “photographic memory” on their Copilot+ PC.
