Depending on your requirements, the AI runs in the cloud, hybrid or entirely in your data centre. We prepare the offer after the free initial consultation.

The two work well together. Copilot pays off for power users who work intensively with Microsoft 365 every day. For everyone else, the WissensAgent is the more economical option: secure AI by usage, with user limits and connected to your company knowledge. We first check which tasks Copilot already covers for you and align the WissensAgent with your existing environment.
