Updated November 3, 2026: We have updated the timeline. Thank you for your patience.
What and Why:
We are introducing a new Copilot skill in PowerPoint that helps users create customer-facing sales pitch presentations. Users can use this skill for scenarios such as a first customer meeting, warm-lead product introduction, industry-specific pitch, or internal sales enablement. The skill helps users shape a commercial story around the audience, opportunity, key messages, supporting evidence, and recommended next step.
