Microsoft Loop is a collaborative app from Microsoft 365 where teams think, plan and create together on shared pages. Pages combine text with components such as lists, tasks and notes that stay in sync across the apps where they are shared, so an update made in one place appears everywhere in real time. An insert menu gives quick access to components, @mentions, emoji and important dates, and page templates provide ready-made structure for projects, meeting notes and team decisions. An AI assistant inside Loop helps people co-create, catch up on what teammates did and stay in sync.

Loop suits project teams, product groups, managers and cross-functional squads that already work in Microsoft 365. Remote and hybrid teams across time zones can contribute whenever it suits them, and notification controls limit alerts to the items that matter. Because it sits alongside Teams, Outlook, Word and OneNote, it is a natural fit for organizations standardized on Microsoft tools that want a flexible planning surface without adding another separate product.

Typical scenarios include kicking off a project from a template, with Loop finding the most relevant existing files and documents for the new workspace. A manager can share a task list component in a chat so everyone edits the same live copy, while a team can capture meeting notes and decisions on a page and return later to pick up where others left off. Brainstorms, project plans, status trackers and team decisions all work well, and the same components can be dropped into messages or documents so information is not copied and pasted between apps.
