Boost your productivity with Copilot+ PC features

Imagine having an AI assistant that’s always ready to help you create and collaborate. Copilot+ PCs bring these possibilities to life. From creative tasks to staying secure, here are some of the AI-powered features that can help you boost your productivity:

  • Cocreator
    Cocreator uses AI to help you generate ideas, suggest improvements, and refine your content in real-time. Whether you’re working on a report, designing a presentation, or brainstorming new ideas, Cocreator helps you make every project stand out with less effort.
  • Windows Studio Effects
    Elevate your video calls with features like background blur, automatic lighting adjustments, and eye contact correction. It’s perfect for polished, professional meetings—anywhere.
  • Live Captions
    Live Captions provides real-time transcription of audio, whether you’re watching videos, in virtual meetings, or catching up on a podcast. It’s a great way to stay engaged without missing a word—especially in noisy environments or when multitasking.
  • Recall
    Recall is like a personal memory assistant that helps you quickly find files, documents, or messages you’ve worked on in the past. Whether you’re jumping between tasks or revisiting an old project, Recall ensures you can easily retrieve what you need without wasting time.

Additionally, the Copilot+ PCs feature a Turbocharged NPU for faster multitasking and content creation. And, its advanced security features ensure your device is protected, giving you peace of mind as you work and play.

Now that you’ve seen how a Copilot+ PC can elevate your productivity and creativity, here’s your chance to take your passion for both tech and basketball to the next level.

  2. Windows Studio Effects is definitely the feature I am most excited about because of the sheer amount of time I would use it.

  3. I am most excited about the option Recall since sometimes when I have to find a past document, it would help me since my memory isn’t the best.

  4. Live Translate on Copilot+ PCs is my favourite feature. It would be fantastic to instantly translate from 44 languages into English & vice-versa in real time is amazing as I have many close relatives in Europe that don’t speak English.

  5. I am excited to try Recall. It think it will be a super fast and cool way to retrieve a document etc when I can’t recall what the title is but I know what it’s about.

  6. I would use recall because sometimes I need to find something I did a while ago and this would be very helpful

  7. I really like the Recall feature, because this is something I really need help with. We are currently designing a new house, and I have so many notes and documents scattered everywhere. I would love to have this Recall feature to organize, and quickly access, whatever I need.

  8. I really like the recall feature because once you are over 70 you have filed so many letters, articles, emails, travel notes, medical records, financial records, and business correspondence away that it really helps to have a little copilot+ go rooting around to look for what I want recalled!

  9. I’m most excited about the Recall feature because my memory isn’t what it used to be and I can use all the help I can get!

  10. My favourite feature would have to be Recall. I waste so much time looking for old documents or files on my pc. I would definitely help me be more productive.

  11. I love the co creator aspect because it’ll help improve so many projects working with AI to become a master.

  12. Recall is what I look forward to and need. Too much multitasking and shuffling projects that I take so much time trying to get familiar with the task at hand again…I really think this will help me.

  13. Absolutely loving the idea of Live Captions as I’m also a note taker & I wouldn’t have to keep saying “what did … say?”, lol! And also the Turbocharged NPU for the speed it’s going to provide.

  14. As an artist I’m most excited about the Cocreator feature because it will help me generate new ideas and speed up my iterative process

  15. I am most excited about Live Captions. I can only hear out of one ear and when there is any background noise, my hearing is so impaired. This would be amazing for me!

  16. I’m most excited about the Recall feature. There’s a lot of information with multiple projects so it will be helpful to be able to quickly find files, documents, or messages related to a specific project.

  17. I’m most excited about Live Translate on Copilot+ PCs. Being able to instantly translate audio from 44 languages in real-time is mind-blowing! It could revolutionize how we communicate across language barriers, making international collaboration and travel so much easier.

  18. I’m most excited about Cocreator on Copilot+ PCs. The ability to generate and refine AI images in near real-time directly on the device is mind-blowing. It’ll unleash my creativity without needing to rely on cloud services

  19. The CoPilot+ PC feature I am most excited about is the automatic Live Captions – this is because there are videos (e.g. on YouTube) that I watch, that simply do not have embedded subtitles. So with this feature enabled, I can enjoy watching these non-subtitled videos, with Live Caption-generated subtitles on the fly.

  20. I’m most stoked about the turbocharged NPU with 45 trillion operations per second! That’s insane processing power for AI tasks. Imagine the creative possibilities and productivity boost with that kind of horsepower under the hood. Can’t wait to see what it can do!

  21. I really like the all day battery life. My battery always seems to be running low on so this will mean one less thing to worry about.

  22. I’m most excited about the turbocharged NPU with 45 trillion operations per second! That’s mind-blowing power for AI tasks. Imagine the creative possibilities and productivity boost with that kind of processing muscle. It’s like having a supercomputer in your laptop!

  23. I’m most excited about Live Translate on Copilot+ PCs. The ability to instantly translate audio from 44 languages in real-time during video calls or streaming could revolutionize global communication and break down language barriers effortlessly

  24. I’m excited about the Recall Instantly feature because finding documentation is such a pain in my company. This is actually a game changer.

  25. I am excited to try the Captioning with CoPilot+ on my new Microsoft Surface Pro once I win it from BestBuy! I find some speech goes by me too fast plus I can be lousy with accents lol, and seeing the words really helps me focus as I retain what I read better that what I hear. The two together (audio and visual) are best for me!

  26. I like Recall because i often multi-task and it helps finding things i was previously working on very quick!

  27. I’m most excited about the CoCreator feature. My story telling would benefit from the ability to bring my ideas/imaginings to ‘life’.

  28. CoPilot+ PC feature I’am most excited about is the live captions, I won’t miss a word or a beat also I’ll get accurate sub titles in real time with automatic live captions! 🙂

  29. I am most excited about the “up to 22 hours” of battery life. This frees me up to work without being constantly interrupted to recharge the battery.

  30. I’m excited about the Windows Studio Effects because in my line of work, I use video calls a lot and the enhanced features will make my calls more efficient and professionally more polished.

  31. I like the recall feature and would definitely use it. I often have to look for files, messages, etc from days past.
