How much does Microsoft 365 Copilot cost?

Microsoft 365 Copilot costs $30 per user per month and is available through Microsoft or an authorized CSP partner like Turnkey Technologies at the same price. Microsoft Copilot Chat is included at no extra cost with eligible M365 subscriptions. Copilot Studio starts at $200 per tenant per month for building custom AI agents.

What Microsoft 365 license do I need before adding Copilot?

Microsoft 365 Copilot requires an eligible base license: Microsoft 365 Business Premium, E3, or E5. If your team is on Business Basic or Business Standard, you must upgrade first. Turnkey Technologies reviews your existing licenses before quoting so there are no surprises at checkout.

What is the difference between Microsoft Copilot Chat and Microsoft 365 Copilot?

Copilot Chat is a free web-grounded AI assistant included with eligible M365 plans. It cannot access your internal files or Teams data. Microsoft 365 Copilot ($30/user/month) is the full product — embedded in Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook, and Teams, connected to your company's SharePoint, OneDrive, and email.

Is it cheaper to buy Microsoft Copilot through a partner instead of Microsoft directly?

The price is identical whether you buy through a Microsoft CSP partner like Turnkey Technologies or directly from Microsoft. The difference is support: buying through a CSP gives you a local account contact, 24-hour license activation, and a named person to call — instead of Microsoft's self-service portal.

How long does it take to get Microsoft Copilot licenses activated?

When you purchase Copilot licenses through Turnkey Technologies, seats are provisioned and assigned within 24 hours of approval. The full process — from licensing review to Copilot being live for your users — typically takes 3 to 5 business days.

Can I pilot Microsoft Copilot with a small group before a full rollout?

Yes. There is no minimum seat count required for Microsoft 365 Copilot. Turnkey Technologies can license as few as 5 to 20 seats for a pilot group so you can validate ROI before committing to a company-wide rollout.

Does Microsoft 365 Copilot have access to all company data?

Copilot only surfaces content a user already has permission to access — it respects all existing M365 permissions and access controls. It does not grant new access to files the user couldn't already see, and it does not use your company data to train Microsoft's AI models.
