New Button in Taskbar Preview

When you hover over an open app’s icon in the Windows 11 taskbar, its thumbnail/preview now shows a “Share with Copilot” option.

Launches Copilot Vision

Clicking the button sends the visible contents of that app window into Copilot Vision, enabling it to scan, analyze, and offer insights based on what’s displayed.

Part of Insider Preview Testing

The feature is experimental and currently available only in Windows Insider builds. It may or may not make it into the general release depending on feedback.

Works Across Different Apps

Though screenshots highlight Edge, Microsoft says the feature should be functional with various applications. It’s not limited to one specific app.

Concerns & Criticism

Users have raised concerns about interface clutter, redundancy of multiple Copilot buttons, and potential privacy risks from unintentionally sharing sensitive screen content.

Multiple Devices in Play

Reports suggest OpenAI is experimenting with smart glasses, a compact smart speaker, a digital voice recorder, and a wearable AI pin. Each device is aimed at making AI available in new contexts, from hands-free wearables to home voice assistants.

Apple DNA Involved

Design efforts are reportedly linked to Jony Ive’s LoveFrom studio, while Apple suppliers Luxshare and Goertek are in talks for assembly and components. OpenAI has also been hiring former Apple engineers to strengthen its hardware push.

Long Timeline

These products are still in early development. Sources indicate the first launches may arrive only between late 2026 and early 2027, suggesting OpenAI is investing in a long-term hardware roadmap rather than a quick release.

Built for AI First

The vision is to build devices inherently designed for AI, ambient, context-aware tools that reduce friction in everyday use. Unlike running ChatGPT on phones or PCs, these products aim to be “always-on” companions, tailored for AI interactions.

Challenges Ahead

Uncertainty lingers over design choices, privacy safeguards, and user adoption. Some concepts, like the AI pin, have sparked internal debate, raising the question of which products will make it to market and whether consumers will embrace them.

Define Your Brand Identity

Write down your brand’s name, tagline, colors, and style (modern, playful, minimal, etc.). This helps AI generate designs that truly reflect your vision.

 Pick an AI Design Tool

Choose platforms like Canva AI, Looka, Designs.ai, or MidJourney, depending on whether you need quick templates or fully custom visuals.

 Generate Logo/Graphic Ideas

Enter prompts like “minimalist logo with blue and white colors, tech startup feel”. Experiment with variations until you get designs that inspire you.

 Customize & Refine

Tweak fonts, icons, and color palettes inside the tool. Mix AI-generated designs with your own adjustments for a unique final look.

 Export & Test It

Download the design in different formats (PNG, SVG, JPG) and test it across business cards, social media, or websites to ensure it looks professional everywhere.

Glean – Enterprise Search With a Brain

Glean isn’t your boring company search bar — it’s an AI detective that scours across Slack, Drive, Jira, and every other app you use. Instead of forcing you to remember filenames or keywords, it understands the intent behind your question and serves up the answer instantly. Think of it as the colleague who actually knows where everything lives — only it never goes on vacation.

Gong – Revenue Intelligence That Listens

Gong doesn’t just record calls; it listens, learns, and translates conversations into growth playbooks. Sales teams get instant insights on what’s working, what’s not, and which deals might slip. Instead of endless hunches and “gut feels,” you get hard data straight from customer voices. It’s like having a sales coach sitting quietly on every call — without the awkward breathing noises.

BHuman – Personalized Videos at Scale

BHuman is what happens when AI and video decide to go viral together. You film one short clip, and it magically turns into thousands of unique, personalized videos — each one greeting the viewer by name or referencing their data. It’s the “hello, [First Name]” email, but supercharged into 4K friendliness. Think mass outreach without the mass-produced vibe.

Geekbot – Standups Without the Awkward Zoom

Geekbot reimagines daily standups as quick, async check-ins that happen right inside Slack or Teams. No more 9 a.m. awkward silences, timezone gymnastics, or waiting for Dave’s Wi-Fi to stabilize. Everyone shares updates on their own schedule, and the bot rolls it all up neatly for the team. It’s like a scrum master that never forgets, never sighs, and never runs over time.

Village Labs  

Village Labs isn’t just another AI platform; it’s designed like a digital village square. The idea: empower groups, teams, or local communities with AI that adapts to their shared context. Instead of generic answers, it builds a “communal brain” that reflects how your people think and work together. It’s like giving a neighborhood, startup, or niche industry its own private ChatGPT that actually speaks their language.

SnetUp 

SnetUp takes the pain out of building connections. Think of it as an AI-driven matchmaker for professional and social networks, helping you set up introductions, manage outreach, or grow communities. Instead of spending hours cold-messaging or hunting LinkedIn, SnetUp nudges the right people together at the right time. It’s networking that feels less like spam, more like serendipity.

MileWeb 

MileWeb wants to make the internet smoother, faster, and smarter. Picture a web infrastructure layer that predicts traffic spikes, optimizes performance, and keeps websites humming at scale. Instead of patching issues after they break, MileWeb-1 uses AI to stay a step ahead. Think of it as the pit crew for your online presence — always tuning your site so it’s race-ready.

Fastr Payments 

Fastr Payments is built on one promise: money should move as fast as ideas. Using AI to detect fraud, optimize payment routes, and speed up settlements, it aims to make transactions feel instant and secure. No clunky delays, no hidden hiccups — just smooth, intelligent payment flows. Imagine Stripe, but turbocharged with AI reflexes.
