The use of Copilot to boost workplace productivity continues to grow. Most Microsoft apps and services now have an AI assistant embedded to support users with more on the way. Among Microsoft’s collaboration tools, Microsoft Teams, the hub for teamwork, is steadily evolving with AI-powered features and agents designed to make chats and meetings more seamless.

These AI capabilities enhance the meeting experience both during and after the session. Participants can focus and engage more attentively while Copilot takes notes automatically. While many appreciate the convenience of AI-generated meeting summaries, a common challenge continues to persists. It has been observed that the AI notes often contain misspellings or awkward phrasing, especially when unique organisational acronyms are involved.

Having stated the challenge, the good news is that a solution is now available, thanks to the latest updates from the M365 Roadmap. The introduction of a custom dictionary in Copilot allows organisations to tailor AI-generated notes with the correct terms and phrasing, improving clarity and readability.

In this session, I’ll cover:

- The process structure of capturing team-specific organisational acronyms
- Requirements and steps for implementing a custom dictionary in Copilot for Teams meeting
- Real-world use cases demonstrating the custom dictionary in action

By the end of this post, organization administrators will be better equipped to help team members and stakeholders to fully benefit from AI-generated notes during and after Microsoft Teams meetings.
