Matt Wolfe walks through Microsoft's Windows AI APIs, which let developers add image captioning, OCR, and document analysis without downloading large models or relying on cloud services. The same APIs power Copilot, and they run faster while keeping data on device.

Say you want to add new AI features to your app without needing a new model? Well, Microsoft is here to help meet the windows AI APIs. They let you plug powerful AI features like Image captioning, ocr and document analysis straight into your app and run them locally using the NPU inside of copilot plus PCs like this one. That means faster performance, better privacy, and no need to rely on the cloud every time your app needs to process something. You don't have to worry about downloading giant models or figuring out complex integrations. These APIs are the same ones powering Microsoft's own Copilot features, and now they're available for developers too. So want to see what's possible? Head on over to the AI Dev Gallery to explore demos and test features instantly. And when you're ready to build the AI toolkit for Visual Studio, code helps you drop these capabilities into your project with just a few lines of code. So make your app smarter without making your life harder. With Windows AI APIs.
