Microsoft has announced significant enhancements to its Copilot AI assistant, including the launch of the Copilot Merchant Program. This new initiative aims to integrate third-party retailers directly into the Copilot ecosystem, allowing users to receive real-time product suggestions and price alerts. Retailers participating in the program can embed their product catalogs into Copilot, ensuring their offerings are accurately represented and visible to a wider audience of potential customers. This integration promises to streamline the shopping experience for Copilot users, enabling them to complete purchases seamlessly within the app.

Microsoft is also expanding Copilot's capabilities with new features designed to enhance the shopping experience. Users can now dive deeper into product details with the "View details" button, access additional product images, review summaries, and explore pros and cons. Copilot offers features like Filter Interactions, which allows users to select desired options for products with multiple attributes, and Buying Options, which lists alternative retailer offers for price comparison. Price Insights show the high, low, current, and average prices for a product over the last 13 months, and Easier Checkout simplifies the process for select retailers.

Further updates include the introduction of two new voices, Birch and Rain, for Copilot. For macOS users, a long press of Option + Space now activates the Press to Talk feature, enabling voice interaction with Copilot. These updates reflect Microsoft's ongoing commitment to improving Copilot's functionality and user experience. Microsoft is encouraging users to explore Copilot Labs to experience experimental features before their public release, and is providing regular updates via the Copilot Release Notes.
