xAI
xAI released a free Microsoft 365 add-in integrating Grok into PowerPoint on June 16. Users can generate full slide decks from text prompts, restructure slides, and apply styling in natural language. The add-in connects to live X and web search and can pull from SharePoint, email, and Google Drive via Grok connectors. PowerPoint is the first Office app; Word and Excel integrations are planned.
Why it matters
xAI's first foothold inside Microsoft Office's enterprise installed base, putting Grok in direct competition with Microsoft's own Copilot features for productivity workers.
