Updated September 29, 2025: We have updated the content. Thank you for your patience.
Introduction
We’re introducing Agent Mode in Microsoft 365 Copilot in Word that enhance how users interact with Copilot to create and refine content. These updates are designed to streamline document creation and editing through a more conversational and iterative experience.
This message is associated with Roadmap ID 499428
When this will happen
General Availability (Worldwide): Rollout will begin in October 2025 (previously September) and is expected to complete in November 2025 (previously October).
How this affects your organization
Users with a Microsoft 365 Copilot license will be able to use Agent Mode to make native changes directly on the Word canvas, like drafting new documents or sections, reorganizing content into formats like FAQs, updating existing content, or rewriting sections. Users will maintain control on the content as they will be able to review and approve any changes.
What you can do to prepare
No admin action is required for this rollout. We recommend informing users about Agent Mode in Word and encouraging them to explore the new capability. Additional resources and documentation will be available closer to rollout.
Compliance considerations
No compliance considerations identified, review as appropriate for your organization.
