## A New Chapter for Cove

Cove is joining Microsoft

March 17, 2026

Today we're sharing some exciting news: the Cove team is joining Microsoft.

# A new chapter

When we started Cove, we set out to reimagine how people collaborate with AI. As model capacities have accelerated, our conviction in that mission has only grown stronger. We're thrilled to continue this work at Microsoft AI, where we'll have the opportunity to pursue an even bigger vision.

# What this means for Cove

As part of this transition, the entire Cove team has accepted offers to join Microsoft, and the Cove product will be wound down on April 1. Existing users can continue using Cove until then, but we are no longer accepting new sign-ups.

We've built a data export feature so you can take your work with you. We recommend exporting as soon as possible — all user data will be permanently deleted on April 1.

To export your data:

1. Sign in to your Cove account and go to your [Account page](/content/account/index.html).
2. Click the **Export** button.
3. You'll receive an email with a download link when your export is ready. The export will be a ZIP of HTML files containing all spaces you've created.
4. To export spaces created by others and shared with you, export each of those spaces individually.

Learn more in our [Migration Guide](/content/migration/index.html).

# Thank you

To every person who tried Cove, shared it with a friend, gave us feedback, or made it part of their daily workflow — thank you. Watching you use it to think, create, and work in ways we never anticipated has been the most rewarding part of this journey. You pushed our thinking, shaped the product, and made this whole journey worthwhile.

While Cove as a product is coming to an end, the ideas behind it will live on as our team continues this work at Microsoft. We can't wait to show you what comes next.

With gratitude,

The Cove Team
