Apple Intelligence not working with Teams in Mac App

Question

When I use Teams, I always expect to find tools for writing Apple Intelligence when I right-click. But unfortunately, that’s not the case right now, and it’s causing me a bit of a problem. Do you think we can use it, or are there any workarounds we can try? I’d appreciate your help with this. Thanks a bunch!

Here are a few workarounds you might consider:

1. Use a Dedicated Writing Assistant Outside of Teams: If you’re using an external tool or Apple’s own writing features (if available on your macOS), you might write your text in another app where the tool is active, and then copy–paste your work into Teams. This isn’t as seamless as having a right‑click option, but it does allow you to leverage those capabilities.
2. Explore Third‑Party Plugins or Integrations: Some third‑party writing assistants (like Grammarly or similar software) offer system‑wide services or desktop clients that might work in many apps, including Teams. While not exactly Apple Intelligence, these tools often provide similar features (e.g., grammar checks, style suggestions) and might integrate at a system level or through a background process. Check if any of them can be configured to provide a context menu option system‑wide.
3. Provide Feedback to Microsoft: Since Microsoft Teams is continuously evolving, consider submitting feedback to Microsoft. If others are looking for a similar feature, user feedback might encourage them to open up the context menu or allow integration with third‑party text assistants.
