Doco is an AI writing assistant built natively into Microsoft Word. It combines the power of Grammarly, Cursor, and Co-Pilot—optimized for structured document workflows. Reference any file, create custom projects and workflows - all without leaving Word.
I’m Jim, one of the creators of Doco, an AI‑native assistant that lives inside Microsoft Word.
🚨 The pain we kept hitting
After years in corporate and consulting roles, we noticed most professional writing still lives in Word, yet AI had no seamless way in. We found ourselves copy‑pasting between ChatGPT and Word, losing context, wrecking formatting, with no easy way to reference past work or company documents. We built Doco to solve that!
🛠️ What Doco does
@ reference any document – Type @ plus a file or folder name and Doco will pull context or snippets from that exact document.
Reusable Workflows – Customizable and adaptive workflows allows you to automate common document tasks in seconds.
Native Word insertion – Headers, tables, citations all keep your writing styles intact.
Any model, one place – Swap between the latest models from OpenAI, Anthropic, or your in‑house LLM without leaving Word.
🎯 Who finds it useful today
Proposal & sales teams → craft deals and pre‑sales documents in one click
Legal professionals → draft contracts and agreements in minutes
Academics & researchers → build papers and literature reviews faster
Power writers → zero copy‑paste, endless prompt libraries
✨ Why it’s different
Lives where you already write (Word, not another web editor)
Verifiable sources kill hallucination anxiety
Enterprise‑ready: SOC‑2 Type II, FedRAMP infra, no training on your data
We’re shipping fast— more integration, multi‑doc fetching, and collaboration features are next. Doco is free to try (no CC required). Would love your feedback and feature wishes!
definitely looks and feels like a far more superior user experience Microsoft should have built. Clean, focused, well executed. Congrats Doco team! Excited to see where it goes!
It’s like having Grammarly, Cursor, and Co-Pilot all in one place but actually built right into Word. No switching tabs, no copy-pastin just smooth, AI assisted writing inside the tool most of us already use.
I especially like the ability to reference files and create structured workflows perfect for reports, proposals, or any long-form writing where organization matters.
Huge congrats on the launch this fills a big gap for Word users!
quick one, Can Doco adapt to different writing tones and house styles like legal, academic, or marketing, or is it more geared toward general productivity writing?
Ngl, having Grammarly and Co-Pilot vibes right inside Word is crazy useful—no more flipping between tabs just to check stuff. Super smart move, fr!
Tried Doco this week and it’s honestly a game-changer for anyone still working heavily in Word (which is most of us in corporate settings). The @ reference and native formatting support alone save so much time — no more breaking styles when pasting from ChatGPT. Excited to see where the team takes this next. Great job, Jim and team! 👏
This looks super useful for anyone who lives in Word! Love the idea of combining editing, referencing, and workflow tools in one place. Curious how well Doco handles larger, more complex docs — excited to see where this goes.
Doco sounds like the writing assistant Word always needed Grammarly-level polish, Cursor-style depth, and Copilot’s smart edge, all tuned for structured docs. Love the native feel and seamless referencing.
Amazing, always looked for such a tool, would be cool if someone implemented a similar functionality for powerpoint / excel.
Ngl, being able to reference any file *inside* Word without switching windows is a total gamechanger. Realy smart move—my workflow needs this asap!
Wow, Doco looks incredibly powerful! The ability to reference *any* document and pull context right within Word is exactly what I've been looking for to combat AI hallucinations. The support for various LLMs is also a huge plus. For academics and researchers, who often deal with very specific citation styles and reference managers, how granular is the control over citation insertion, and are there plans for integrations with tools like Zotero or Mendeley?
Using it directly in Word, and being able to integrate the strengths of several tools,no need to switch back and forth when working on documents. For people who write a lot, it's really convenient.
Is there a way to customize Doco so that it can be tweaked to conform better to my writing style/tone?
I’ve been using Doco inside Word for a few weeks now, and it’s quickly become one of my favorite writing tools. It feels like Grammarly, Co-Pilot, and Cursor had a baby—and that baby actually gets how structured documents are written.
What really stands out is that it works natively in Word. No switching between tabs or copying text into a separate app. I can reference other documents, set up project-specific workflows, and write with AI support—without ever leaving the file I'm working on.
If you write reports, proposals, or any kind of long-form structured document, Doco is a serious game-changer. Still some room for polish, but honestly, it's already made my writing process way faster and more organized.
@Doco This is honestly something I didn’t know I needed until now.
Having an AI like Doco inside Word, without jumping between tools — that’s such a relief. It really does feel like Word, Grammarly, Cursor, and Co-Pilot had a baby… but focused on people who live in documents all day.
Love how it's built for actual doc workflows, not just random suggestions. Super clean work. 🙌 Excited for it's updates.
Very impressive! Hallucinated citations are always hard to keep in check, so any product putting effort toward that problem will always be appreciated imo
It’s like having a supercharged cursor that actually helps you think, not just type. From rewriting clunky sentences to brainstorming new sections, Doco makes working in Word way less painful and way more creative.
Huge upgrade if you live in documents all day
Quick question Can Doco handle longer, complex docs (like reports or proposals), or is it best for short-form writing? Curious how it holds up when things get wordy?
Love the idea of having this integrated right into Word - super convenient!
