Two plans come with Copilot already in them: Business Standard with Copilot at $30 a seat, and Business Premium with Copilot at $40.
The add-on itself sits on top of Business Basic, Business Standard, Business Premium or Apps for business.
What Copilot does
There are two Copilot add-ons, not one, and they accept different plans. The plan somebody is already on decides which of them they can buy.
Draft and rewrite inside Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook and Teams.
Answer from the company’s own documents, mail and meetings rather than from the web.
Summarize a meeting the person did not attend.
Which plans it can be added to

What the paid license adds
The chat included with a Microsoft 365 subscription answers from the web. Answering from the company’s own files and mail is what the paid license adds.
Worth knowing
Two different add-ons with different eligibility. Which one a customer can buy depends on the plan underneath.
It depends on the plan underneath. Copilot Business sits on Business Basic, Business Standard, Business Premium or Apps for business. The wider Microsoft 365 Copilot accepts a longer list, including the frontline and Exchange plans.
It answers from the web, the way a public chat assistant does. Answering from the company’s own files, mail and meetings is what the paid license adds.
Business Standard with Copilot is $30 a seat and Business Premium with Copilot is $40. Both are the base plan with the assistant included, rather than an add-on bought separately.
