From The Verge: When Microsoft first launched its Copilot Pro plan last year and wanted an extra $20 a month on top of a Microsoft 365 Family or Personal subscription to get AI-powered Office features, it seemed like a tall ask. After bundling Office AI features into Microsoft 365 subscriptions earlier this year, Microsoft is now taking the next step of merging Copilot Pro and Microsoft 365 into a new Microsoft 365 Premium subscription.
“It’s really going to be our most powerful AI and productivity subscription for any individual,” says Gareth Oystryk, senior director of marketing for Copilot Pro and Microsoft 365, in an interview with The Verge. “It brings together our trusted collection of productivity apps with Copilot built-in, along with our highest Copilot usage limits and exclusive features.”
Microsoft 365 Premium will be priced at $19.99 per month, the same price as OpenAI’s ChatGPT Plus subscription, and will include Microsoft’s highest usage limits in features like GPT-4o image generation and voice, as well as Copilot Podcasts, Deep Research, Vision, and Actions. It will also include all of the Microsoft 365 Family benefits, with access to Office desktop apps for six people, 1TB of storage per person, and more.
