Copilot in Teams works from the meeting transcript: during the call it answers questions such as "what did we decide about the budget", and afterwards it gives a recap, decisions and a task list with names. In chats and channels it condenses long discussions to the essentials. It needs meeting transcription turned on and a Microsoft 365 Copilot business license. It handles meetings in many languages if the transcription language is set in the meeting options.
