Plain Language App for Microsoft Teams – Custom Setup & Managed Service

Transform complex writing into clear, simple, and effective messages with our custom Microsoft Teams app. Designed to improve communication across your organization, this solution simplifies dense content into plain language using the GPT models. Built for Microsoft Teams, it runs in your Azure environment using Azure OpenAI Services and models fine-tuned with your organization’s own communication standards and style preferences.

Core Benefits

• Seamless Integration: Delivered as a managed Teams application that aligns with your Microsoft 365 configuration and tenant policies. Setup begins with a discovery call tailored to your environment.
• Custom Branding & Custom Style Guides: We work closely with you to define your organization's tone, terminology, formatting, and writing rules. These guides are used to fine-tune the AI model, ensuring outputs match your corporate communication standards and follow frameworks like the Australian Style Manual or Plain Language principles.
• Rich Teams Functionality: The app is accessible directly in Teams with a simple user interface. Users can paste or write content into a text box, request desired output tone or format, and receive rewritten suggestions that match your custom guide. The app integrates with Teams chat for easy content transformation within your users workflow.
• Ongoing Support & Training: Includes regular updates, admin support, and tailored training sessions to ensure the app evolves with your organization’s communication needs and compliance goals.

How It Works

2. Discovery & Planning: We meet to capture your communication goals, review current messaging practices, and identify integration needs. We also help define a business case with clear outcomes based on communication efficiency.
3. Customization & Model Training: Your internal style guides and messaging examples are used to fine-tune the AI model. We configure the Teams app with custom settings, templates, and permissions to suit your workflows.
4. Deployment: The app is securely deployed in your Azure tenant and integrated into your Microsoft Teams instance.
5. Managed Service: We provide ongoing management, user tier-based pricing, and dedicated support to keep your communication tools effective and aligned with evolving needs.

Pricing & Engagement Model

We begin with a discovery call to align on goals and customization scope. A one-time setup fee is determined by the level of model fine-tuning, integration complexity, and custom UI needs. Ongoing monthly fees are based on user tiers (e.g., 50, 500, 5,000 users). Full pricing details are discussed during the discovery to ensure clarity and alignment.

Getting Started

Because our app is built on Microsoft 365, Teams, and Azure services—including Azure OpenAI and Azure AI Foundry—implementation requires configuration of your M365 tenant and Teams admin settings. Book a discovery call to begin designing your tailored solution.
