ESW Launches Copilot Orbit™: AI Automation Services for Small and Mid-Sized Businesses
On December 3, 2025, ESW, a prominent U.S.-based partner of Microsoft (MSFT), unveiled its latest offering, Copilot Orbit™. This innovative managed service program aims to assist small and mid-sized businesses in implementing AI agents and comprehensive workflows throughout their operations. The launch is accompanied by a new blog post titled “How Copilot Agents Can Actually Automate Your Company,” which provides insights into real-world applications of Copilot-based automation across various sectors, including finance, HR, sales, and IT.
Bridging the Automation Gap
As businesses increasingly incorporate AI into their processes, many encounter challenges transitioning from pilot projects to full-scale automation. Copilot Orbit addresses these challenges by bundling essential components such as governance, data grounding, security, and workflow orchestration into a structured monthly delivery model.
“Organizations want more than occasional AI experiments,” stated Russell Kommer, CEO of ESW. “They want Copilot Agents within custom applications, consistently handling tasks, automating workflows, and freeing up valuable team resources.”
Key Offerings of Copilot Orbit
Copilot Orbit is built upon ESW's established Copilot methodology and presents the following features:
- Governance and Security: Oversight, including data mapping and alignment with Purview/DLP, ensuring secure AI operations.
- Integration: Grounding with core platforms like SharePoint, Teams, OneDrive, SQL, and Exchange, enabling agents to access relevant data.
- Development: Creation of prompts, Power Automate flows, Teams or SharePoint plugins, accompanied by thorough testing.
- Ongoing Delivery: Regular introduction of new agents or workflows to drive continuous process automation.
- Tuning and Telemetry: Continuous adaptation and user training to ensure sustained business value.
For organizations interested in evaluating their readiness, ESW offers an introductory consulting service.
Flexible Plans to Meet Diverse Needs
Copilot Orbit is available in several tiered plans catering to small and mid-sized enterprises:
- Core: Including governance, monitoring, and basic backlog management.
- Plus: Core features plus delivery of one new agent or automation monthly.
- Scale: Offering two to three agents or automations per month, plus adoption support and executive reporting.
These plans provide a reliable and predictable approach to operational automation without the need for a dedicated in-house AI team.
Significance for Small and Mid-Sized Companies
While large enterprises frequently have dedicated teams focused on AI and automation, many small and mid-sized businesses lack the necessary resources to effectively manage data security, compliance, and workflow orchestration—critical elements that ensure reliable Copilot functionality. Copilot Orbit™ serves as a solution, granting these organizations access to enterprise-grade AI automation through a manageable subscription model.
The accompanying blog post highlights practical scenarios for application, including invoice-to-payment processes, HR onboarding, sales proposal creation, and IT help-desk support.
