We can confirm now that Microsoft will make Microsoft 365 Copilot Chat available to use for organisational accounts without an M365 Copilot license.  It will use a Pay As You Go model, just like Syntex. But the details are not complete. How much is it? Is it the whole M365 Copilot experience? How do we limit access to it? Why has this message been updated already? Actually, at the time of writing this video description... where is the message? Â
We talk about this and more in our first show of the year: Â
- Microsoft Purview | New secure workflow to bypass legal holds and retention policies Â
- Add a Loop workspace tab to standard Teams channels Â
- Microsoft 365 Copilot | Select Microsoft SharePoint sites when writing prompts Â
- Microsoft 365 Copilot | Select SharePoint and OneDrive folders when writing prompts Â
- SharePoint Pages Flexible Sections Â
- Updated Microsoft 365 Copilot Chat | Set up "Pay-as-you-go billing" in Microsoft 365 admin center Â

Unlicensed access to Copilot Agents in Teams group chats | Ep 362
The story continues to develop about accessing Microsoft 365 Copilot and making it available to all users with an Entra ID. Copilot Agents will be available to use within Teams group chats, whether you are licensed with M365 Copilot or not. While the message doesn't say so, we think it is another use of metered (pay as you go) access to Copilot, which was detailed around the announcements for accessing SharePoint's Copilot Agents. Â
