Navigating Microsoft Copilot to gain maximum AI advantage

The most pressing business challenges need the most innovative solutions. Microsoft Copilot is a groundbreaking, AI-powered assistant which intelligently automates many of your daily tasks. Combining the power of large language models (LLMs) and your own Microsoft data, you can turn your words into the most powerful productivity tool on the planet.

Microsoft Copilot: your revolutionary AI companion

Copilot responds to human language requests. These ‘prompts’ can range from the very simple, such as prompting Microsoft Copilot for Word to ‘write a paragraph on Microsoft technology’, to something much more complex, such as prompting Copilot in Outlook to produce an email incorporating specific Excel data and providing a detailed executive summary of the information the spreadsheet contains. Here are three examples of what Copilot can do for you:

Automate customer service responses

Copilot efficiently handles standard customer inquiries by delivering prompt answers to frequently asked questions, reducing wait times and improving customer experience. Copilot can also identify and triage more complex customer concerns and notify a human operator – offering a middle ground between optimal operational efficiency and positive customer engagement.

Draft and edit documents

Whether prompted to create unique content or called upon to repurpose a document to fit a particular style and outcome, Copilot assists in creating professional business documents across your organisation. Boosting productivity and efficiency, Copilot offers a route to improved business communications by partnering with you to create attractive documents that are designed specifically for their target audience.

Data analytics and insights

Copilot can help businesses to better comprehend customer behaviour, market dynamics and operational effectiveness through analysing intricate datasets, with this data-driven focus leading to more informed decision-making.

How Microsoft Copilot adapts to your needs

Combining the power of AI and LLMs with Microsoft applications such as Word, Outlook and Excel, and by utilising your existing data in Microsoft Graph, Copilot is able to internalise, understand and respond to your prompts. By existing on top of your organisation’s own data and learning from your interactions, the results that Copilot produces will be personal to you and to your people.

Transform your Microsoft Copilot experience with our Extensibility FastStart

The possibilities open to you with Copilot are virtually endless. Combining our expertise in Microsoft AI with our experience developing Microsoft Copilot plugins and integrations, you can scale new heights of innovation and productivity. Our FastStart engagement provides you with clearly-defined outputs to set your Copilot journey on the right track.

Syntex, now part of SharePoint Premium, allows you to automate document-related processes like never before, saving significant time and resources. The business case for this sometimes-overlooked area of Microsoft AI capability is compelling – here’s why.

Syntex is Microsoft’s AI-powered document understanding capability, providing the ability to turn content into knowledge and streamline document-related processes.

We have helped Microsoft bring these key aspects of its Content AI services to market for many years, making us an experienced and reliable partner you can trust.

Automate and integrate with Power Automate

Long-term sustainability and success rely on streamlining your operations and bringing multiple complex systems together. Whether it’s a process to support interactions with clients, suppliers and partners, or a process within an internal function, Power Automate and its more than 400 connectors can provide the integration glue. Offering seamless workflow automation and empowering users to streamline tasks across various apps and services without the need for extensive coding, Power Automate unlocks efficiency for every user.
