Microsoft relaunches Copilot as an all-in-one AI 'super app'

Microsoft has officially launched a redesigned version of its Copilot app, which it first teased last month. The new version combines three separate AI capabilities—chat, coding tools, and autonomous agents—into a single unified interface.

As part of the update, Microsoft is renaming Scout, the AI personal assistant it introduced at its Build developer conference earlier this year, to Autopilot. The company positions the revamped Copilot as a major platform it hopes will become as central to daily computing as Microsoft Office has been.

The launch reflects Microsoft's broader push to weave AI assistants more deeply into everyday software use, aiming to make Copilot a go-to tool for both casual tasks and more technical work like coding.
