A Milestone for Me, a Starting Point for You: AI Exploration

This is not a full blog post but a digital breadcrumb to pin a milestone Iโ€™m proud of.

We talk a lot about AI. But when the cameras stop rolling or the boardroom door closes, the real questions begin:

Are we ready?
Can we do this safely?
Where do we even start?

As product manager Data & AI at Previder, I’ve been listening to those questions. So we built AI Explorationโ€”a practical, secure, and scalable way to help organizations take that very first step. Whether itโ€™s just dipping a toe in or diving into Copilot readiness, the goal is always the same: help people work smarter without overwhelming them.

This short video (yes, that’s me talking) explains our approach:
๐ŸŽฏ Get Inspired with an M365 Copilot session
๐Ÿ› ๏ธ Get Started in a safe test setup
๐Ÿ” Get Ready with a thorough IT & security check

Itโ€™s not a one-size-fits-all roadmap. Itโ€™s a menu with practical onramps to real AI adoption. No hype. Just help.

And if you’re one of the curious ones wondering how to make AI work for people, not just around them then letโ€™s talk.
