Why Copilot Expert
Advice that ends in working AI.
We advise and build — from strategy to agents in production.
Consultancy & development
Advisers who build
The technology behind Microsoft Copilot stands up in days. The return lies in governance, sharp use cases and bespoke work that truly fits.
That is what we advise and build on — independently, as an initiative of Gaide. Need to train teams? That is handled by our sister platform Copilotcursus.nl.

The team
The people behind Copilot Expert
You work with the same people who write the advice and build the agents. Consultants, developers and trainers around one table — so you get something running in your tenant on Monday, not a document thrown over the fence.
We come by, look inside your Microsoft 365 environment with you, and stay involved until Copilot is a habit. One point of contact, from the first scan to the handover.
FAQ
Frequently asked questions
The questions we get asked most.
What exactly is Microsoft Copilot?
Microsoft 365 Copilot is the AI assistant in Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook and Teams — since August 2026 the app is called Microsoft Copilot. It combines language models from providers including OpenAI and Anthropic with your work data through Microsoft Graph, and only sees documents you can already access.
What does a Copilot expert do for my organisation?
We advise, implement and build: readiness scan, strategic advice, secure rollout and bespoke agents. That way you avoid licences nobody uses and make the return demonstrable.
Is our company data safe with Copilot?
Yes, provided your tenant is in order. Prompts do not train the models, existing permissions still apply and your data stays within the EU Data Boundary — with deliberate exceptions, such as Anthropic models, which are off by default in the EU. The real risk is oversharing in SharePoint — we fix that before rollout.
Does every employee need a paid licence?
No. Microsoft Copilot Chat with enterprise data protection already comes with Microsoft 365. The paid licence adds your full work context, Copilot inside the apps and agents such as Researcher; agentic work such as Cowork is billed in Copilot Credits. A mixed licensing strategy is very common.
What does a project with Copilot Expert cost?
Every organisation is different, so we always build a tailored proposal. Book a no-obligation 30-minute advisory call and we will discuss what suits your organisation.
What is the difference between Copilot and AI agents?
Copilot helps you while you work, in the apps you already use. An agent runs complete processes on its own — handling customer queries, checking invoices. Copilot lifts individual productivity; agents transform processes.
What is changing about Microsoft Copilot in 2026?
Three things. The app is now called Microsoft Copilot, Copilot works with models from several providers, and Microsoft bills agentic work such as Cowork as usage in Copilot Credits. That makes cost management and agent governance just as important as the rollout itself — exactly what we advise on.
Where does Copilot begin for you?
