FAQs

What is Microsoft Copilot?

Microsoft Copilot is an AI-powered assistant that works within Microsoft 365 apps to provide real-time assistance. Used in Outlook, Teams, Word, Excel and PowerPoint, it helps your team save time and work smarter. From summarising content to drafting documents, analysing data, creating presentations and automating routine tasks, it ensures your people can get more done every day.

Is AI safe to use in my business?

Yes – when it’s implemented correctly and supported by good governance and the right security controls. We recommend using Microsoft Copilot, because it’s designed for businesses and operates within the Microsoft 365 security and compliance framework.

Can AI save my business time?

AI can reduce manual, repetitive tasks, support knowledge sharing across the business, and improve productivity. The businesses that save the most time with AI are the ones who prioritise teaching their team, so staff have the skills to get more from tools and are supported to make AI a part of their workday.

We do. Our team delivers a range of AI training, from free webinars to professional training services, workshops and AI readiness programs that are tailored to different business roles.

What Microsoft licensing do we need for Copilot?

This depends on your Microsoft environment, business size, security needs and the specific Copilot services you want to use. Many businesses use Microsoft 365 Business Premium as a strong foundation, and Copilot may require additional licensing or bundled options depending on the solution.
