Since its introduction earlier this year, Copilot continues to change everything about the way we work. Power Apps has transformed low-code development by empowering all app makers to quickly create powerful business apps through intuitive experiences.

Today, we are announcing the availability of Copilot for users of model-driven apps and a major expansion of Copilot control’s capabilities in canvas apps. Now, all Power Apps can be intelligent apps. Makers can easily build apps to boost productivity for users, powered by next-generation AI in an intuitive experience.

Introducing Copilot in model-driven apps

Today, we are rolling out Copilot for users of model-driven apps. Copilot helps users get insights about their data and helps them navigate the app simply through conversation in natural language.
