Microsoft has announced a new subscription plan that brings together the best of Microsoft 365 and Copilot Pro dubbed Microsoft 365 Premium. Up until now, both Microsoft 365 and Copilot Pro have been separate subscriptions, costing up to $12.99 a month for Microsoft 365 and $19.99 a month for Copilot Pro.
Microsoft 365 Premium combines access to Microsoft’s Office suite and Copilot Pro features for $19.99, which includes higher usage limits, and access to Copilot Pro features such as Copilot Labs and Actions.
“Microsoft 365 Premium combines everything in our Microsoft 365 Family and Copilot Pro subscriptions—and then some—for just $19.99 per month, bringing together the productivity apps you know and trust with our most advanced AI features and our highest usage limits available today” says Microsoft Executive Vice President, Yusef Mehdi. “This new subscription was built specifically for any individual looking to tackle the most demanding productivity tasks, from conducting deep research into a new business idea to nailing an important presentation at work.”
Here’s everything the new subscription comes with:
- Word, Excel, PowerPoint, OneNote, and Outlook desktop apps with Copilot built in
- Access to Researcher and Analyst—powerful reasoning agents announced for our commercial customers earlier this year (available in the Microsoft 365 Copilot desktop app today and coming soon to the Word, PowerPoint, and Excel apps)
