Now Microsoft Copilot can understand your handwriting

Microsoft will soon enable the company’s AI assistant Copilot to read and analyze handwritten notes, The Verge reports. The function was expected to begin as a beta test at the end of last month.

Onenote users can use the function to make handwritten notes with a stylus and then let Copilot, for example, sum them up, generate a to-do list, or ask questions about the notes.

The feature can also be used to turn handwritten notes into text that is easier to edit and share. Once live, the feature will only be available to Copilot for Microsoft 365 subscribers and Copilot Pro users.
