Microsoft’s Copilot licensing is getting more flexible – but also more complicated. You’ve now got Microsoft 365 Copilot, Copilot Chat, Agents, Copilot Studio, Copilot Credits, PAYG, capacity packs and Cowork. So, here’s the simple version.

Building an AI agent is relatively easy, however – building one that is useful, secure and reliable requires a bit of planning. Microsoft has an Agent Design Framework, that provides a structured way to plan agents, before you start trying to build them! Before embarking on your agentic journey, we’d recommend you use this framework

There’s a pattern we see if many new prospects or customers, interested in rolling out AI. They’ve bought the licences. They’ve seen the demos. They’re ready to roll out Copilot or connect ChatGPT to their SharePoint. And then we ask a question that slows everything down: “What’s your data governance like?” Generative AI tools like

This week at CYBERUK 2026 in Glasgow, the National Cyber Security Centre (NCSC) made it official – passkeys should now be the default way to log in wherever a service supports them. It’s the first time the NCSC has told users and organisations to move away from passwords entirely. Their position is clear: the technology

Every business we talk to is asking some version of the same question: which AI platform should we actually be using? The answer depends on what you already pay for, where your data lives, and how seriously you take compliance. If you’re operating in the UK or EU, that should be very seriously indeed. We’ve

Running a business in Moray isn’t the same as running one in Glasgow or London. The opportunities are different, the talent pool is smaller, and some of the infrastructure gaps that city firms take for granted are very real once you get outside the main towns. We work with businesses across Forres, Elgin, Nairn, Inverness

When people think about IoT, they often think about temperature sensors, asset tracking or smart buildings. However, some of the most impactful applications are those that help protect vulnerable people whilst respecting their privacy. The Milesight VS373 is a good example of how modern AI and LoRaWAN technologies can work together to create safer environments

If your SharePoint feels like a dumping ground, you’re not alone. We see it all the time – businesses move to Microsoft 365, then recreate the same messy file server in the cloud. Folders inside folders, duplicate documents, and no one quite sure what’s current. It slows people down and quietly increases risk. This post

In the world of technology, there’s a common belief that compliance is a handbrake. We’ve all heard the myths; data protection slows us down, that governance is an expensive luxury, or that AI is simply too risky to touch right now. These misconceptions are exactly what hold organisations back. The problem isn’t compliance itself –

The Isle of Man has been a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve since 2016 – one of only a handful of places in the world where the entire territory holds that status. The designation covers 572 km² of land and over 4,000 km² of surrounding Irish Sea. It’s a remarkable commitment. But until now, there hasn’t been

We’ve always been obsessed with data. Whether it’s IoT sensor networks, soil parameters, vehicle telematics, or analysing the latest census, we have been collating and publishing Isle of Man data long before the current AI wave took hold. Today, we are moving beyond static reports. We are excited to announce the launch of Smart Island
