Microsoft Launches Copilot Pro One-Month Trial

Microsoft is expanding its $20-a-month Copilot Pro subscription to more markets after launching its AI-powered assistant to consumers in January. Microsoft is now offering a one-month free trial to entice users to sign up for its AI assistant.

Copilot Pro includes priority access to the latest OpenAI models, the ability to build your own Copilot GPT, and access to Copilot inside Office apps if you have a Microsoft 365 Personal or Home subscription. Now, Microsoft is also unlocking Copilot Pro inside Office web apps, so you don't need a separate Microsoft 365 subscription to use chatbots inside Word, Outlook, and other free web apps.

This Copilot Pro integration will also be available in mobile apps soon. “We’ll also be expanding this benefit to our free mobile apps, including Microsoft 365 and Outlook on iOS and Android in the coming months,” said Divya Kumar, general manager of search and AI marketing at Microsoft.

If you want to try Copilot Pro, you'll need to install the Copilot app on iOS or Android to get a free month. Microsoft has been trying to entice consumers to use the Copilot mobile app since its launch in late 2023, including a Super Bowl ad that focused solely on the mobile version.
