Cogito + Outlook
AI for Outlook email and calendar, scoped to you.
Connect your Microsoft account once and Cogito works on your Outlook inbox, calendar, and contacts in private contexts. The equivalent of the Google integration for Microsoft shops.
Try Cogito FreeLive in under 5 minutes. No card required.
Built deep, not via MCP
Cogito's Outlook integration is a first-class API connection with the depth, reliability, and permission inheritance most AI tools cannot match.
Microsoft Graph API for full Outlook and Calendar coverage
Functionally equivalent to the Google integration for Microsoft 365 shops
Per-user OAuth - no shared inbox visibility
Personal, organizational, or both
Cogito's Outlook integration ships with the connection model that fits your team. The layering story is the differentiator.
Personal mode
Per-user connection. Private contexts only.
For teams on Microsoft 365 instead of Google Workspace, Outlook personal integration provides the same per-user email and calendar capabilities as Google integration.

Common workflows
Concrete day-to-day moments where Cogito + Outlook earns its keep.
Pre-meeting prep brief
30 minutes before every external meeting on your Outlook Calendar, Cogito DMs you a brief with the attendees, company context, and recent emails with them.
Draft the follow-up
After a call, ask Cogito in a DM: "draft the follow-up to the meeting I just had". Cogito reads the calendar event details, drafts the email in your voice, and shows it to you for approval.
Permission granularity
You pick the OAuth scopes at connect time - more access unlocks more capability, less access keeps Cogito narrowly scoped
Per-user OAuth - no admin shortcut
Personal mode only in private contexts
Send-on-behalf requires per-email confirmation by default
Read-only mode available
Setup time
Under 60 seconds per user
