Technologies
From emerging technologies such as artificial intelligence, cognitive services and machine learning, all the way to our beloved and established Microsoft 365 subscriptions, we rely on many best-in class technologies to fuel your new business IT solutions. If you wish to learn more about what’s under the hood, you’ll find the information you need here. However, it’s our job to make it work, so we don’t expect you to become IT pros.
Microsoft 365 Copilot
Microsoft 365 Copilot is an AI-powered productivity tool integrated into the Microsoft 365 suite. It collaborates with you in real-time, enhancing creativity, productivity, and skills. By coordinating large language models (LLMs), content from Microsoft Graph, and apps like Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook, and Teams, Copilot assists with drafting, summarizing, and generating content. For instance, in Word, it writes, edits, and creates alongside you. In Outlook, it provides coaching tips and summarizes email threads.
Copilot in Word
With Copilot integrated into Word, you can jump-start the creative process and never start from scratch again. Copilot helps you write, summarize, and edit content automatically with a single prompt, which saves you hours of writing, researching, and editing. As the author, you are always in command, driving your unique ideas forward and prompting Copilot to shorten, rewrite, or provide feedback.
Copilot in Excel
Copilot in Excel enables users to focus on storytelling rather than the technical work that goes into analyzing data. With Copilot in Excel, the process of analyzing trends and creating professional-looking data visualizations becomes automated and can be completed within seconds. Excel can now break down data or predict the effect of a variable change, so you can focus more on interpreting and coming up with more innovative solutions.
Copilot in PowerPoint
With Copilot, now everyone can take information from Word documents or Excel worksheets and create an outstanding presentation. Copilot enables users to create visually appealing PowerPoint decks with unique themes best suited for their presentations’ purpose and tone.
Copilot in Outlook
To save time and improve productivity in Outlook, Copilot can summarize long email threads to quickly draft suggested replies to help you clear your inbox. Copilot can also detect the level of urgency and importance to help you better prioritize your emails and reply to ones that require your immediate attention.
Copilot in Microsoft Teams
With Copilot, you no longer need to miss any meetings! If your attendance is not critical to a meeting, rather than declining the invite, you can choose to “follow” it. This means you can inform the organizer that you can’t attend the meeting, but you still get a thorough recap of key discussions and a list of action items to bring you up to speed and ensure you have all the information you need to proceed with your tasks.
