Copilot Health is Microsoft's latest push to use artificial intelligence to turn scattered medical data into clearer health insights for ordinary people.
Microsoft has launched Copilot Health as a separate, secure space inside its Copilot app where users can bring together health records, wearable data and lab results. The service can connect to more than 50 wearable devices and platforms, including Apple Health, Oura and Fitbit, and can pull records from over 50,000 US hospitals and providers via HealthEx, with permission. Once the information is uploaded, the AI analyses patterns and offers personalised explanations of everyday ailments, long-term conditions and general wellbeing, with links and citations to trusted medical sources such as Harvard Health.
Microsoft stresses that Copilot Health is designed as a companion, not a replacement for clinicians, even as it promotes "medical intelligence" and work towards "medical superintelligence". The company says the tool can help users prepare for appointments, summarise their history and even find doctors or hospitals that accept their insurance, potentially making consultations more focused. Developed with input from more than 230 physicians across 24 countries, the system has also received ISO/IEC 42001 certification for how its AI is governed.
To address privacy fears, Microsoft says all Health conversations and data are stored separately from general Copilot and are protected with encryption, strict access controls and extra safety checks. The company also says the information is not used to train AI models, and users can disconnect wearables, delete records or leave the service at any time. Copilot Health is launching first in English in the US for users aged 18 and over, with a waitlist open and plans for more languages, voice options and markets in the future.
