Your AI Assistant, Built Into Microsoft 365
Microsoft 365 Copilot works inside the apps your team already uses. It drafts emails and documents, summarises meetings, analyses spreadsheets and finds information across your files, all from a simple prompt.
Because Copilot draws on your business data, it is only as safe as your Microsoft 365 permissions. If files are shared too widely, Copilot can surface them to people who should not see them.
That is why we start with your data, not the licences. We make sure Copilot is secure, then help your team get genuine value from it.

Get Your Data Ready Before You Switch On AI
Copilot can see everything a user can access. In many businesses, years of quick sharing mean that includes payroll files, HR records or client data that should be locked down.
Our readiness check finds these risks and fixes them, so you can roll out Copilot with confidence and stay on the right side of UK GDPR.
- Review who can access which SharePoint sites, Teams and files
- Fix overshared folders and links open to everyone
- Apply sensitivity labels to confidential information
- Confirm licences and which staff will benefit most
- Set clear rules on AI use for your team
- Check Microsoft 365 security settings are up to date
Getting started
How We Roll Out Microsoft Copilot
A successful Copilot rollout is planned, secure and focused on the people who will benefit most. Here is how we get your Dartford business there.
Readiness check
We review your Microsoft 365 setup, data permissions and licences to see whether your business is ready for Copilot.
Fix access and data
We tighten sharing and permissions so Copilot only surfaces information each person is already allowed to see.
Pilot and roll out
We start with a small group, measure the time saved, then extend Copilot licences to the people who will gain most.
Train and support
Hands on sessions show staff how to write good prompts and use Copilot in their daily work, with ongoing help from our Dartford team.
Frequently asked questions
Microsoft Copilot Questions From Dartford Businesses
What is Microsoft 365 Copilot?
Microsoft 365 Copilot is an AI assistant built into Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook and Teams. It uses your work content, such as emails, files and meetings, to help draft, summarise and analyse information.
What is the difference between Copilot Chat and Microsoft 365 Copilot?
Copilot Chat is a web based AI assistant available to many Microsoft 365 users at no extra cost. Microsoft 365 Copilot is a paid add-on that works inside your apps and can draw on your organisation's emails, files and meetings.
Is our business data safe with Copilot?
Copilot respects your existing Microsoft 365 permissions and keeps data within your tenant. The risk comes from permissions that are already too open, which is why we check and fix access before rollout.
Why do we need a readiness check?
Copilot can find anything a user has access to. If sensitive files are overshared, Copilot may surface them to the wrong people. A readiness check finds and fixes these gaps first.
Does every member of staff need a Copilot licence?
No. Copilot licences are assigned per user, so many businesses start with the roles that spend the most time on email, documents and meetings, then expand once the benefits are clear.
What can Copilot do in Excel?
It can analyse data, highlight trends, suggest formulas, create charts and explain results in plain English, which helps staff who are less confident with spreadsheets.
Is it risky to let staff use free AI tools instead?
It can be. Pasting client or company information into public AI tools may break data protection rules. Giving staff an approved tool like Copilot, with clear guidance, keeps that information within your business.
Do you provide Copilot training?
Yes. We run practical training for your team, covering good prompts, everyday uses in each app and how to check Copilot's output before relying on it.
