Kitsmith / Utilities / Microsoft Copilot
Microsoft’s free AI chat app for Mac — text and voice chat, AI image generation, and writing help, blending OpenAI and Microsoft’s own models.
Our take
Microsoft’s own entry in the AI-chat-app race, free per its Mac App Store listing, with voice chat and an AI image generator alongside standard text chat. Worth not confusing with “Microsoft 365 Copilot,” a separate paid AI add-on Microsoft bundles into some Office and Teams plans — this listing is the free-standing consumer chat app, and whether any account-wide paid tier unlocks extra features inside it isn’t detailed on its own store page.

The deal
- Free to download and use, per the Mac App Store listing
Worth knowing: Microsoft separately sells “Copilot Pro” and bundles “Microsoft 365 Copilot” into some Office/Teams plans — this app’s own App Store listing doesn’t detail whether either applies inside it, so treat it as the free consumer app unless you’ve confirmed otherwise.
