'We have all the tools, but nobody knows exactly how to use them yet'
Recognisable? Then you are not alone.
Every day, hours are lost searching for the right information, drafting standard texts, summarising meetings or creating reports. Employees switch between tools, tabs and e-mails - all while workloads increase and expectations continue to rise.
Often, we spend more time finding information than applying it. IT teams have to support more and more applications, and users feel overwhelmed by digital complexity.
What if your employees had a smart assistant, in every application?
Not one that just answers questions, but one that thinks along. Who writes your text, analyses data, generates summaries and proactively makes suggestions - exactly where you need it.
That's where Microsoft Copilot comes in.
What is Microsoft Copilot?
Microsoft Copilot is an AI-powered assistant, built on technology from OpenAI, that is deeply integrated into Microsoft 365 as well as other business environments. It helps employees work smarter, faster and more creatively - with less frustration and wasted time.
But: not all Copilots are equal. There are different versions, each with a different purpose, use and level of integration.
What versions of Copilot are there? And what can you do with it?
💼 Microsoft 365 Copilot
The AI assistant in your familiar Office apps
Think of an assistant that rewrites or generates text in Word based on your notes. In Excel, it effortlessly spins out complex formulas or makes trend analyses. In Outlook, he summarises e-mails, suggests replies and keeps track of priorities. And in Teams? There, he summarises meetings, creates action lists and keeps the common thread.
Seamlessly integrated into Microsoft 365, it uses your business data (such as documents, e-mails, calendars and chats) via Microsoft Graph to provide contextually relevant output - within your organisation's security boundaries, of course.
✔ Ideal for knowledge workers, communication professionals, analysts, sales & support teams.
🌐 Copilot in Edge & Bing (free or Pro)
AI in your browser, always within reach
Looking for information on the web, comparing products or wanting a quick summary of an article? Then Copilot in Edge will help you instantly - without having to open ten tabs. You can ask questions, generate summaries, write code or even have images created with AI.
The free version is available to anyone with a Microsoft account. Those who opt for Copilot Pro get faster performance, more advanced models (such as GPT-4 Turbo), and integration with Office apps (for private users).
✔ Copilot Pro only targets individuals and is of interest to students, for example.
⚙️ Copilot Studio
Build your own Copilot, tailored to your processes
Do you want an AI assistant specific to your organisation? For example, one that handles HR questions, helps customers via a chatbot, or guides employees through internal processes? With Copilot Studio (formerly Power Virtual Agents), you can build customised Copilots - without programming.
You link your own data streams (e.g. SharePoint, internal knowledge bases, databases) to the AI, set the right instructions, and you get an enterprise-wide assistant who is always ready.
✔ Perfect for IT teams, HR, customer service, or internal communication departments.
Why invest in Copilot?
✅ Time savings: search less, do more.
✅ Higher productivity: Employees get higher-quality output faster.
✅ Greater job satisfaction: Copilot takes over repetitive tasks and increases creativity.
✅ Fast adoption: thanks to integration with existing tools, users hardly need to learn anything new.
✅ Secure and responsible: You always retain ownership of your data. Copilot works within the security measures of Microsoft 365.
Which organisations is Copilot suitable for?
- Organisations looking to get more out of their Microsoft 365 investment.
- Companies looking to support employees
- Teams that work a lot with knowledge, documents, reports or customer communications.
- IT departments looking to deploy AI in a manageable, secure way.
The AI revolution is not a future - it is already here.
The question is: do you let your employees struggle with AI tools on their own, or do you give them a trusted, integrated assistant that really adds value?
