Microsoft Teams launches Copilot video recaps for meetings

Before, Teams meetings ended with recordings buried in channels, transcripts ignored, and action items noted in private Word docs that no one else saw. Knowledge workers spent hours hunting for what mattered amid notification noise, leaving outcomes to fade into email triage chaos. Now Copilot's highlights turn those recordings into scannable summaries of real decisions, bridging the gap from attendance to follow-through. This shifts meetings from calendar drains to workflow starters, especially in hybrid setups where context switching already kills focus—finally making Teams feel like part of a unified system rather than another app to check.
