How it works
Grounding on internal data
Connect your agent to the institutional knowledge that matters: SharePoint libraries, OneDrive folders, Canvas course content, or custom document collections. Your agent answers from your data, not from the public internet with every response grounded in what your institution has authorized.
Document retrieval
When a user asks a question, the agent searches across connected document sources using Azure AI Search, surfacing relevant answers from the right files without exposing documents the user is not authorized to see.
Web search & image generation
Enable real-time web search to give your agent access to current information beyond your internal knowledge base. Agents can also generate images and visual content on demand for use cases ranging from course material creation to communications support.
Data analysis
Upload spreadsheets, institutional reports, or structured datasets and let your agent extract insights, identify patterns, and summarize findings. Complex data becomes usable knowledge without routing every question through an analyst.
Agentic workflows
Connect agents with supporting agents when a workflow requires specialized expertise, routing, or orchestration.
Concrete use cases
Student advising agent
Answers student questions about degree requirements, deadlines, and financial aid around the clock, reducing advising staff workload without reducing service quality.
Research support agent
Helps researchers identify relevant literature, summarize findings, and draft IRB-compliant documentation within a fully governed, in-tenant environment.
IT helpdesk agent
Resolves common IT requests and routes complex issues automatically, reducing ticket volume and improving time to resolution.
HR knowledge agent
Gives staff instant, accurate answers on benefits, policy, and onboarding without waiting for HR callbacks or navigating disconnected intranet pages.
Faculty course prep agent
Helps instructors build syllabi, generate discussion prompts, create assessment rubrics, and turn course materials into useful learning artifacts.
Procurement & contracts agent
Guides staff through purchasing workflows and surfaces relevant vendor agreements, procurement policies, and approval requirements on demand.
Executive briefing agent
Synthesizes institutional data, performance reports, and sector news into concise leadership briefings.
Student services & accessibility agent
Guides students and staff through accommodation request processes and connects users to relevant campus resources, policies, and contacts instantly.
Comparison
Generic public chatbots
Our enterprise AI agents
Primary capability
Text generation, static prompt answers, and general conversation with no awareness of your institution’s data, policies, or workflows.
Multi-step workflow execution grounded in your institutional data with the ability to retrieve documents, route across agent workflows, and surface governed answers at scale.
Practical outcomes
Responses typically remain in the chat.
Practice exam, presentation, research drafting, data summarization, and interactive artifact creation through ONEchat, with specialized advising, research, IT, and student services workflows supported by Agents and persistent Projects for organizing chats, files, and instructions.
Governance and cost control
Minimal institutional oversight, access control, and visibility into usage or spending.
Centralized control over models, Agents, data, and tools, with group-based budgets and token usage reporting to manage consumption and track AI costs across the organization.
Extensibility
Limited ability to connect AI to institutional applications and developer workflows.
Governed AI extensibility through integrations, API access, Claude Code, and OpenAI Codex, with approved access and governance controls maintained across every extension.
Data & context
Restricted to public web training data; no access to your internal documents, systems, or institutional knowledge.
Deeply grounded in your SharePoint, OneDrive, Canvas, and custom knowledge sources with real-time web search available where authorized.
Customization & roles
One-size-fits-all interface with no awareness of institutional roles, permissions, or access boundaries.
Deeply grounded in your SharePoint, OneDrive, Canvas, and custom knowledge sources with real-time web search available where authorized.
