Your workplace Microsoft Teams chats could soon actually be productive, thanks to a new service coming to the video conferencing platform.
The company has announced Chat notes, a “new collaborative space” where users will be able to share ideas and collaborate on work without having to leave Microsoft Teams.

In a Microsoft 365 roadmap post announcing the news, the company says Chat Notes will be all about, “enabling real-time collaboration, organization of key information, and streamlined communications.”
The tool will be available in group chats along with 1:1 conversations, with the ability to add in extra team members when required.
The update post does not go into a whole lot of detail about what Chat Notes will look like, but does mention a few features, including the ability to add images, format text, share Loop components, and mention chat members when you require their attention.
Chat Notes is still listed as being in development for now, but has an expected release date of September 2025, so users should not have too long to wait to super-charge their productivity tools.
Upon release, Microsoft says Chat Notes will be available for Teams users on Desktop to begin with, with users across the world able to access it.
The launch will be the latest in a series of recent releases aimed at making Microsoft Teams users more productive when using the service.
This includes adding the ability for users to save messages in their conversations and chats, meaning users no longer have to trawl back manually through long conversations to find the message they need.
The company also revealed configurable keyboard shortcuts are finally coming to Microsoft Teams soon, giving users quick and easy access the symbols, icons, and others they may use regularly on a daily basis, but sometime are not close at hand when typing in a work environment.
