Microsoft is integrating its AI-powered Copilot features into Microsoft 365 Personal and Family subscriptions, resulting in a $3 per month price increase—the first in 12 years.
Existing subscribers can opt out and retain their current pricing without the AI features. The Copilot integration will be available across applications like Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook, and OneNote, with usage governed by a new AI credits system. For unlimited AI feature usage, the Copilot Pro subscription remains available at $20 per month. Additionally, Microsoft is introducing “Personal Classic” and “Family Classic” plans for existing subscribers who prefer to avoid the price increase; however, these plans will not receive major new updates.
Users will also have the option to disable Copilot features within applications if desired. Learn more at The Verge.
