Ignite 2023: Microsoft Loop is Now Generally Available

Microsoft Loop, the company’s alternative to Notion that launched in public preview back in March has just crossed a new milestone. The web app is now generally available for commercial customers, and the iOS and Android apps are also going out of preview today. The Loop consumer experience with a personal Microsoft account, however, is still in public preview.

For those unfamiliar, Microsoft Loop offers a collaborative canvas where multiple people can co-create using Loop components that sync across other Microsoft 365 apps. Loop components can take the form of tables, task lists, or paragraphs, and you can also create them from apps like Teams and Outlook.

It's official! #MicrosoftLoop is now generally available for M365 work accounts on web and mobile 🚀🌐#MSIgnite

A big THANK YOU to everyone that provided feedback during our preview; it helped shape Loop's future. Think, plan and create together: https://t.co/xIY9McfNaT pic.twitter.com/r9M1HSloK5

While Microsoft Loop is free to use with a personal Microsoft account, a Microsoft 365 commercial subscription is required to get the full experience. New Loop features are currently in preview, including intelligent descriptions for Loop Workspaces, which are shared spaces where you can group together different Loop pages.

A new integration with Power Automate is also available in preview. It allows users to create a rule in a Loop table to automatically send notifications to Power Automate when the table is updated. Later this year, Microsoft will add the ability to start a Loop workspace after a Teams meeting that’s automatically populated with related notes and documents.
