From 24 July to 1 September 2026 the checklist inside this kit called an EU AI Act amendment already in the Official Journal "proposed, not binding". Version 1.1.2 replaced the download on 1 September and the bundle on 2 September, each verified by downloading the live file back. Most orgs that deploy Copilot fall into one of two traps: they distribute licences with no structure and end up with a 30% active user rate, or they hire a consultant for $50K who hands over a slide deck and disappears. The gap is always the same. No one ran the SharePoint permissions audit before launch. DLP policies were left in simulation mode. The first onboarding session had no prompts. The business case never reached the right person at the right time. This kit is the structured alternative. My free, open-source Copilot prompt library was cited by Jared Spataro (Microsoft, AI at Work) in his 25 February 2026 AI at Work note. He was citing that free repo, which held 300+ prompts then. This kit is a separate, paid product that he did not review or endorse. What's in the kit 01 — M365 Copilot Field Guide (28 guides) One strategic operating model plus 27 feature guides covering Outlook, Teams, Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Analyst, Researcher, Notebooks, Pages, Cowork, Workflows, Work IQ, Microsoft Scout, and every built-in agent. Guide 00 covers the full architecture stack, a decision framework for picking the right tool, the agent and automation strategy, the governance model, and a 4-level maturity framework. Role-based reading paths so you go straight to what matters for your job. Practitioner annotations throughout — the things the Microsoft docs skip. 02 — 90-Day Adoption Roadmap A week-by-week deployment plan with task owners, dependencies, and decision gates. Phase 1: technical prerequisites and pilot group selection. Phase 2: pilot feedback loops and first governance review. Phase 3: full rollout, internal prompt library, and the ROI conversation with leadership. 03 — Prompt Audit Worksheet A 5-step worksheet your pilot users complete before the first onboarding session. Two versions: individual contributor and manager. Starter templates for 8 task types. Each user arrives at onboarding knowing exactly which 2-3 tasks to start with. 04 — ROI Conversation Template The business case template for a skeptical manager or finance team. Current pricing including the July 1, 2026 increase, a break-even table by salary level, benchmarks from a 15,000-user commercial deployment, and responses to the five most common objections — including "we already have ChatGPT" and "we'll wait for prices to drop." 05 — Governance Checklist (8 sections) The pre-deployment checklist for IT and compliance teams. Covers SharePoint permissions audit, DLP enforcement mode, the April 2026 admin controls most orgs missed, what to tell your DPO, the EU AI Act dates as amended by Regulation (EU) 2026/1744 (2 December 2026 and 2 December 2027), the May 16 licensing split, Frontier enrollment, and the quarterly governance cadence. Written by someone who ran the DPO conversation for a selective Claude/Anthropic enterprise pilot. 06 — 10 Declarative Agent Templates + Deployment Guide Ten paste-ready Copilot Studio agents that work out of the box with no domain-specific knowledge and no custom data sources. Each one includes the full instruction block, knowledge source guidance, 4-5 tested prompts, first-week guidance, and the mistakes most teams make in week one. Agents: Meeting Brief Preparer, Action Item Tracker, Status Report Generator, Email Triage Assistant, Document Summariser, Decision Log Keeper, Risk Identifier, Project Status Monitor, Onboarding Guide, Policy Q&A Assistant. Who this is for IT admins and M365 administrators configuring a Copilot deployment. Change managers and Copilot champions running adoption programs. Department heads building the business case for leadership. IT managers who need to show ROI before the next licence renewal. Anyone responsible for governance, compliance, or DPO conversations around Copilot. Copilot deployments fail when the technical setup, governance, adoption, or business case is missing. This kit covers all four. Buying this with a company card? Most buyers expense this. Gumroad gives you a proper invoice at checkout (add your company name and VAT number on the receipt page), and here is the approval email so you do not have to write one: Subject: Approval request: M365 Copilot deployment kit ($97, one-time) Hi [Manager], I would like to expense a one-time $97 deployment kit for our Copilot rollout: the M365 Copilot Deployment Kit by Kesslernity. What it is: a 90-day week-by-week rollout roadmap, a governance and DLP checklist (covers the Purview gaps most rollouts miss), 10 ready-to-deploy agent instruction blocks, and a field guide covering every Copilot surface. Why it is worth it: we pay $30/user/month for Copilot licences. If this kit saves even two hours of planning or prevents one governance misstep (the default Copilot DLP policy ships in log-only mode, which most teams do not know), it pays for itself many times over. It is cheaper than one hour of any consultant we would otherwise ask. One-time purchase, includes all future updates. Invoice available. [Your name] Larger organisation? If procurement needs a formal invoice or a supplier record before payment, email mathieu@kesslernity.com with what finance needs. Invoices on request, no minimum order. Your licence covers the whole organisation. This is not a seat licence and there is no user count. One purchase covers your organisation's internal use: every employee, every volunteer and every individual contractor working under its direction may use it. You do not need a second copy for a colleague. Other legal entities, including parent, sister and subsidiary companies and your own clients, are separate organisations and need their own licence (Article 3.2). Delivering the material to them as paid training needs the Trainer & Reseller licence (Article 3.4). Licensed, not sold.
