## Design analysis

This shows the desktop version of Microsoft Copilot for the week of 2026-11-02, before scrolling. A sidebar on the left takes up about a fifth of the screen width. A large greeting stands out most, followed by the message box below it. The text is light enough against the background to meet a common accessibility guideline. The outline of the message box is faint, but the hint text inside it is easy to read. Four suggested prompts sit under the message box. There is no note saying it can make mistakes. The main screen looks the same as the week of 2026-10-26.

## Menu items

- In the side menu: an icon button (nine-dot grid icon), an icon button (checked square icon), an icon button (split rectangle icon), New chat, Search, Library, Agents, Notebooks, an icon button (gear icon)
- In the bar across the top: Work IQ, a model picker, an icon button (shield icon), an icon button (dashed bubble icon), an icon button (three dots icon)

## Menu changes

No menu changes compared with the week of October 26, 2026.
