Microsoft’s Copilot Pages brings order to chaos by turning messy notes into structured documents, for free

Microsoft‘s new Copilot Pages feature transforms disorganized notes into structured, enhanced documents through AI, representing a significant evolution in digital note-taking. This free tool not only organizes information but adds contextual details on demand, making it valuable for students, researchers, and professionals who need to transform raw information into coherent, detailed documents.

The big picture: Microsoft unveiled Copilot Pages at its 50th Anniversary Event as a free, cloud-connected notebook that automatically organizes information and enhances it with additional research and details.

• The feature works through the Copilot web app and gives users control over how their notes are structured and enhanced.
• Unlike Microsoft’s other generative AI notebook tools that are limited to business users, Copilot Pages is available to anyone for free.

How it works: Users can simply paste unstructured notes into the Copilot web interface and ask the AI to organize them without needing specific instructions.

• Copilot transforms disorganized content by creating logical sections, adding bullet points, fixing grammar, and formatting text for better readability.
• Users maintain control through an “Edit this response” option that allows for further customization, including creating new pages or adding to existing ones.

Key features: The tool offers multiple ways to refine and enhance content beyond basic organization.

• Users can highlight text to add formatting like bold or italics, or ask Copilot to expand sections that need more detail.
• The system presents AI-generated additions for user approval, giving people final say over what gets included in their documents.
• All created Pages are accessible by logging into the Copilot website with a Microsoft account.

What’s coming: Copilot Pages is part of a broader expansion of Microsoft’s AI assistant capabilities rolling out in the coming weeks.

• Other new features include Copilot Memory, which tracks interests and previous queries for personalized responses.
• Microsoft is also launching Copilot Vision for both Windows and mobile devices, along with an enhanced Copilot Search to improve Bing queries.
