About the Concierge
Grounded AI

AI underperforms because of the information underneath it, not the model.

Every stalled Copilot pilot I get called into has the same shape. The licences are paid for, the demo looked great, and in the real tenant it gives confident wrong answers. That's not a capability gap. It's duplicate sites, files in six places, permissions nobody has looked at in years, and processes that were never written down. Fix the information and the process first, and AI on top of it stops being a gamble. That's the whole idea, and it's what the newsletter, the Assessment and the Concierge are all built on.

Information before AI. If your documents aren't organised well enough for a new hire to find, they aren't organised well enough for Copilot either.
Process before automation. Automating a messy process just makes the mess faster. Cut the steps that don't need to be there, then put AI on what's left.
Your team owns it. Built in your tenant, by your people, with the record of how it works. Nothing in a black box, nothing you depend on me to run.
Daniel Anderson
Who I am

Twenty years in the Microsoft ecosystem. In the day to day, not commentating on it.

I'm Daniel Anderson, an independent consultant in Melbourne. Microsoft MVP for Copilot and SharePoint, which is a rarer pairing than it should be. Most AI consultants have never built a SharePoint site. Most SharePoint consultants haven't built an agent. I do both, and everything I write about is running in my own business and in client work right now.
