●  MICROSOFT COPILOT ADOPTION

Deploy Copilot where it matters most

Prioritize copilot licenses for the users most likely to benefit. Monitor engagement, flag underutilization, and prove business value with real productivity indicators.

Automatically identify candidates

Score every user on M365 app usage to find the strongest copilot candidates.

Maximize Copilot productivity

Map every Copilot interaction to app and task productivity, identifying inefficient copilot use for enablement.

Prove ROI

Quantify value with usage, estimated time saved, and productivity signals.

●  AI GOVERNANCE

Govern AI you can actually see

Employees adopting AI tools on their own — a personal ChatGPT account, an unsanctioned Claude subscription — create risk and cost you can’t govern if you can’t see. Meanwhile, autonomous agents in Copilot, Foundry, and SharePoint quietly multiply inside M365 with their own identity and cost. Identify which AI applications are used by whom, flag unsanctioned usage, and get one governance view to enforce IT and financial policy.

●  COST ALLOCATION

Track spend, allocate budgets, and bring accountability across the whole organization

Create defensible showback and chargeback, reduce unattributed spend, and give business leaders clearer accountability for AI investment. Connect AI consumption to the people, departments, regions, cost centers, applications, initiatives, and business units responsible for it. Gain a consistent way to assign financial ownership across AI investments that would otherwise be managed in separate provider environments.

Smart Tagging

Track AI cost with dynamic rule-based tags on resources, business initiatives, agents, and people.

Anomaly Detection

Customize notifications based on anomalies or budget thresholds to maintain spend guardrails.

Extended FinOps

One platform and operating model across vendors and technology categories.

●  FINANCIAL PLANNING

Forecast the AI portfolio, and have stronger, more defensible negotiations

AI budgets become harder to manage when consumption, licenses, capacity, and commitments are planned separately. Bring tangible, granular historic data to act as a baseline for demand and spend forecasting, reduce budget surprises, and make better funding, capacity, commitment, and renewal decisions.

●  COST OPTIMIZATION

Rightsize AI resources and deprovision unused capacity across your AI estate

Reduce avoidable cost, improve utilization, prioritize financially meaningful actions, and optimize AI without compromising the business outcome the investment is intended to deliver.

Model analysis

See model-level costs and how model-selection influences performance, usage, and spend.

Azure savings recommendations for rightsizing, outdated model usage, and search tier changes.
