Introducing Microsoft Copilot
Introducing Microsoft Copilot
Microsoft’s latest collaborative AI tool, Copilot, is designed to enhance productivity in Microsoft's core applications: Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and Outlook. Copilot uses NLP (natural language processing) – or your own words - to decode user prompts to generate new content, saving you time and enabling you to become even more productive.
This powerful tool creates content and context through Microsoft Graph, a gateway to data and Intelligence in Microsoft 365. It serves as a unified endpoint for accessing data and can generate responses anchored in your business content, from documents, emails, calendars, chats, meetings, and contacts, to several other forms of external business data such as ServiceNow and Salesforce.
Make Generative AI work for you
A recent Forrester report predicts that 6.9 million US knowledge workers will be using Microsoft 365 Copilot by the end of 2024.

The benefits of Copilot

Enhanced ROI in Business Applications

The challenges businesses face when implementing Copilot
Microsoft 365 Copilot uses your existing permissions and policies to deliver the most relevant information. For many organizations, there is a risk of users oversharing information, either accidentally or intentionally through searches with Copilot. Many organizations may have not performed a full audit of their business data and this is a risky move as there’s no certainty in knowing what the new AI capabilities are going to uncover or make shareable. It’s vital to note that Copilot can and will pull information from anywhere it has access, so you need to dive deep into permissions and exposures across your Microsoft 365 tenancy.
