Microsoft 365 Copilot in Teams is designed to provide real-time meeting assistance, including
summarizing discussions, identifying key decisions, and highlighting action items. When joining a
meeting late, the most efficient and immediate method to catch up is to directly prompt Copilot
within the Teams meeting experience.
Option A is the best answer because Copilot in Teams can summarize what has occurred so far during
the live meeting. It leverages the meeting transcript, speaker attribution, and contextual signals to
generate a concise, structured summary in real time. This minimizes delay and provides actionable
insights instantly.
Reading the transcript (Option B) would require manual review and is not the fastest method.
Intelligent recap (Option D) is typically available after the meeting concludes and processes recording
data. Asking Copilot from the separate Microsoft 365 Copilot app (Option C) may not provide
immediate, in-meeting contextual awareness.
Therefore, the fastest and most effective approach is to ask Copilot in Teams to summarize what you
missed.
