  1. CAS Connections lands in Microsoft Copilot, letting chemists check CAS Registry Numbers and structures while drafting reports

    CAS, a division of the American Chemical Society, announced that its CAS Connections connector is now live in Microsoft Copilot, giving Copilot users direct access to CAS Content Collection and to CAS Newton, a science-focused AI agent. Previously, R&D teams in pharma, life sciences and chemistry had to look for trusted scientific information in dedicated tools outside Copilot. Jointly developed by CAS and Microsoft, the connector embeds more than 150 years of expert-indexed CAS knowledge into everyday writing, analysis and collaboration workflows, for example checking a compound's CAS Registry Number and chemical structure in Word or asking in Teams whether a substance appears in patent literature.

    MongoDB Atlas plugs into Microsoft 365 Copilot: live operational records answer questions without a data migration

    MongoDB has released a federated Copilot connector for MongoDB Atlas, now generally available, letting users ask Microsoft 365 Copilot questions about live Atlas data. Previously such answers lived in operational applications built on Atlas while the questions were asked in everyday productivity tools, or relied on a static copy of the data. The connector queries Atlas on demand through MongoDB's managed remote MCP server, with no migration or indexed copy, and each query runs as the signed-in user under existing Atlas permissions.

  3. Microsoft splits Copilot into Home, Code and Autopilot: natural-language apps run in a tenant sandbox

    Microsoft is adding three capabilities to Copilot. Home merges Chat and Cowork into one starting point with Word, Excel and PowerPoint built in. Code lets non-developers describe an app, tracker or dashboard in natural language, and Copilot picks an approach and builds it, running in a sandboxed environment powered by the same underlying technology as GitHub Copilot and hostable inside the tenant. Autopilot, previously called Scout, is a persistent, proactive personal agent with its own identity, memory, computer and workspace, reachable by @mention in Teams, Outlook and elsewhere. Home and Code start rolling out through the Frontier program in the coming weeks, and Autopilot expands to private preview at the end of the month.
