Material tradeoffs

  • Copilot Health's record connections span more than 50,000 US provider organizations and its provider search filters by insurance, both of which Murph does not offer. Murph's records path is an Epic import in beta plus uploads.
  • Copilot Health requires a paid Microsoft 365 consumer plan, is US and iOS or web only, and was partly paused in September 2026 while Microsoft moved it into a new app. Murph starts free and runs in iMessage or Telegram on any phone.
  • Wearables reach Copilot Health only through Apple Health for now. Murph connects WHOOP, Oura, Garmin, Fitbit, Dexcom, and others directly, but it has no insight-card homepage or provider directory.

Common questions about Murph and Copilot Health

Do I need Microsoft 365 to use Copilot Health?

Yes, when reviewed. Microsoft says the preview is open to Microsoft 365 Personal, Family, and Premium subscribers who are 18 or older in the US, and work accounts are not eligible. Murph starts free without a card.

Is my Copilot Health data used to train AI or for ads?

Microsoft says no. Copilot Health conversations are not shared with the rest of Copilot, are not used to train AI models, and are not used for advertising, and health data is not sold. Conversation activity is stored for 18 months by default and can be deleted at any time.

Can I use Copilot Health on Android or with a Garmin or WHOOP?

Not directly, according to the FAQ. Copilot Health runs on the web, Windows, and iOS, and its wearable connections start with Apple Health, so a device must sync into Apple Health to contribute. Murph runs in iMessage or Telegram on any phone and connects Garmin, WHOOP, Oura, Fitbit, and Health Connect directly.
