How many products does Microsoft have named 'Copilot'?

How many products does Microsoft have named ‘Copilot’? I mapped every one

Update: Since this was published, the lovely internet community has let me know we were missing two Copilots: Gaming Copilot and Microsoft Dragon Copilot (🤦‍♀️). This brings the total to 80. The chart has been updated and I'll continue to update it as Microsoft continues to Copilot.

Copilot is just Microsoft's term for AI. How many products have Copilot? Just about all of them.

> Copilot is just Microsoft's term for AI.

This comment really helps me put things in perspective.

I'm guess now that it's Microsoft's way of naming their LLM-powered products/features, the same way "Azure" is basically their codename for "cloud".

Except they named their local hosted version of TFS/VSTS Azure DevOps Server (where the cloud version is Azure DevOps Services).

They just like branding their dev tools for whatever they're pushing at the time. In 2002 they named Visual Studio "Visual Studio .NET".

It makes sense. And Google is its own way to name all AI products “Gemini”.

Which is unusually simple. I would expect Google to use 10 more marketing names simultaneously without any logic to the product lines.

They’ve improved it since the initial launch when the service, model names and plan names all sounded similar and contradictory.

But they put Gemini in google docs, they didn’t rename Docs to Gemini like Microsoft did.

Great point. We’re about to get a wave of Apple Products with “Apple Intelligence” in a similar way.

Yeah imagine if they had unique product names for "AI in OneDrive", "AI in SharePoint", "AI in Outlook"... That would be even more ridiculous.

Not if AI is ultimately a commodity, which it likely is. We don't want or need branded terms for other common features, like networking or files. In the early days of networking, before it was standard, there were attempts to brand things like NetBIOS with IPX and such. I don't want to repeat all of that every time some company wants to establish vendor lockin or branding.

Is it in solitaire or minesweeper?

Be careful what you wish for
