Im vorigen Jahr habe ich mich mit Florian Sandmann-Reetz beim M365 Summit in Mainz unterhalten – und aus diesem Gespräch ist jetzt Episode 65 von “Sandmann sendet” geworden. Ich hoffe, es wird für Euch genauso interessant wie für mich während des Interviews. Vom Soziologiestudium zum KI-gestützten Zettelkasten 1994 habe ich mich im Soziologiestudium erstmals mit…
Counting logins and prompts tells you nothing about whether Microsoft 365 Copilot is actually creating business value. That was the central message from Lisa Vanderlip, Managing Principal at WyseMinds, in Episode 31 of Guardians of M365 Governance, hosted by Joy Apple, Ragnar Heil, and Christian Buckley. The Trap of Usage Metrics Most organizations still measure…
Rolling out Microsoft 365 Copilot? Learn why unstructured data classification is the step most companies skip—and why it backfires.
The GitHub Copilot Harness in Microsoft Copilot Studio consumes Copilot credits from the moment you start building an agent — unlike the Standard Harness, which is free during design and testing. If you don’t lock down credit settings before makers start experimenting, you risk unplanned consumption across every environment in your organization. The Problem: An…
Your agent fleet is growing faster than your ability to govern it. That’s the blunt truth behind Microsoft’s July 2026 update to Agent 365, which adds five capabilities: unified partner risk signals, tighter oversight of usage-based AI spend, organization-wide adoption reporting, expanded cross-platform agent discovery, and centralized multi-tenant management.

Three Harnesses, Three Ways Credits Get Consumed Every agent runs on a harness. A harness is the scaffolding. It lets an agent plan, reason, and act. Copilot Studio ships three: GitHub Copilot…
Your SharePoint dashboard might already be leaking budget numbers to people who can’t even open the list it came from. Here’s the direct answer: Copilot in SharePoint can build two very different dashboard types from the same prompt — a live-linked dashboard and a static dashboard — and only one of them respects your source…
An Agent 365 Autopilot is an AI agent with its own identity inside your Microsoft 365 tenant — its own mailbox, calendar, and spot on the org chart.

From Per-User License to Consumption Billing Cowork requires the $30 Microsoft 365 Copilot license just for access. Once a user is licensed, actual usage is billed separately through Copilot Credits — the same currency already used for Copilot Studio agents and Work IQ APIs. Simple prompts cost less; complex, multi-step tasks that pull from SharePoint,…
