Creating impactful presentations is a team effort. Copilot helps bring people, ideas, and feedback together.

[Derek Johnson @DerekJohnsonSV]

So much of the work involved in creating a great presentation happens after the first draft: gathering input from the team, getting reviewers aligned, and addressing feedback.

Copilot in PowerPoint can now write and manage comments across your deck, working more like a coworker right inside your presentation, where collaboration already happens.

One use case I’m excited about: ask Copilot to review a deck and flag what needs polish directly in the comments.

Give it a try in PowerPoint and let us know what you think!

The PowerPoint Agent is sooo good! You should try it out. I have 0 clue how to use PowerPoint, but now I shine in all my corporate presentations with my sleek AI-generated slides haha! It's such a lifesaver. I don't know how many hours I would have spent creating average slides otherwise.

[Derek Johnson @DerekJohnsonSV]

Last week we started rolling out interactive slides in PowerPoint, and I wanted to share more about why I think it will transform your presentations when you can explore ideas together with your audience.

With interactive slides, you can use Copilot to synthesize context and data to create dashboards, timelines, or other slides you can click through to highlight insights and tell your story.

Paste slides without the extra baggage. When you paste slides with Keep Source Formatting, PowerPoint brings over only what those slides need, helping your presentation stay clean, fast, and easy to collaborate on.

Need the previous setting? You can now choose your preferred paste experience, including the option to continue importing all designs from the source presentation.

We're making PowerPoint work better and smarter for you. What else would you like to see?

Transform your storytelling with interactive slides in PowerPoint, starting today and rolling out over the next few days to general availability. Copilot takes your idea and creates an engaging, interactive slide so you can elevate key insights and guide the discussion in the moment.

A dashboard that brings critical data forward. A map that reveals regional highlights. A product diagram that lets you explore each innovation. Communicate ideas more effectively with interactive slides and Copilot in PowerPoint.

Hi, I'm Derek, and I lead PowerPoint at Microsoft.

PowerPoint shows up on the days that matter most, whether that's the pitch, the board review, the first day of class, or the project that's been weeks in the making. It's also where much of that work happens long before the day arrives, while an idea is still being shaped and rewritten.

Both parts are important, which is why we're making it think with you, and move as fast as you do.

I'll keep sharing here as we make PowerPoint better for you. Let me know what you'd like to see.

Enterprise AI is entering a new chapter.

Organizations are moving beyond experimentation and deploying AI at enterprise scale. Microsoft 365 Copilot has now surpassed 30M+ paid seats, with customers expanding deployments across entire workforces and reaching high usage faster than ever before.

But the bigger story isn’t adoption. It’s transformation.

From procurement and manufacturing to HR, organizations are using AI and agents to reimagine how work gets done.
