The problem

You've tried the alternatives.
They all have the same problem.

Copilot talks about doing things instead of doing them. Power Automate requires IT even for simple rules. Neither works the way you'd expect an AI assistant to work.

Microsoft Copilot

Looks built-in.
Isn't connected.

The Copilot that comes with your M365 subscription can't see your data. Ask it to summarize your email and it asks you to paste the content in. The paid add-on ($18/mo promo, $21 standard) can finally read your inbox — but each app still starts fresh. There's no single conversation that spans email, calendar, and tasks.

✕ Talks about doing it
Power Automate

Marketed as no-code.
Requires IT in practice.

Building even a simple rule — "when I get an email with an attachment, save it to OneDrive" — requires navigating a flow builder, configuring connectors, and debugging developer-log error messages. Flows break silently. There is literally a website called ihatepowerautomate.com. Power Automate has no intelligence; it just runs scripts.

✕ No IT, no flow
Microclaw

Actually does it.
In plain English.

Microclaw connects directly to your entire Microsoft 365 account — reading and writing across email, calendar, tasks, and files in one conversation through Teams. You describe what you want. It does it — or asks a single clarifying question if it needs to. Automations are set up in plain English and fire in real time. No flow builder. No IT call.

✓ Does it
Copilot vs. Microclaw

One conversation.
Every app.

Microsoft has built tier after tier of Copilot — and each one falls short in a different way. The version included with your M365 subscription can't see your email. The paid add-on can, but treats every app as a separate conversation. Cross-app action is locked behind a $99/month enterprise bundle — not in Teams, every action requires approval, large orgs only. Microclaw does all of it today, for less, for any team size.

Microsoft Copilot — included with M365
Flag emails from the board, add them to my task list, and block off a free hour in my calendar this afternoon to work on this
You
Copilot

I can't directly change your mailbox or calendar for you, but here's a clean, ready-to-use setup that does exactly what you described. I'll make a few reasonable assumptions and note them clearly so you can adjust in seconds.

1) Automatically flag emails from the Board

Assumption: Board members email you from known domains or specific addresses.

Outlook rule (recommended)

  • Open Outlook → Settings → Mail → Rules
  • Create a new rule: Name: Board Emails
  • Condition: From → specific people, or From domain (e.g. @boardcompany.org)
  • Actions: ✅ Flag the message  ✅ Categorize as Board  ✅ Move to a Board folder
  • Save

This ensures every board email is automatically flagged the moment it arrives.

2) Add flagged board emails to your task list

Outlook flags integrate directly with Microsoft To Do. Any flagged email appears in To Do → Flagged Email. Due date follows the flag you choose (Today, Tomorrow, Custom, etc.).

Best practice (1-click workflow)

When a board email arrives, keep the auto-flag. Adjust to Today or This week if needed. It immediately shows up as an actionable task. No extra setup beyond the rule above.

3) Block off a free hour this afternoon

Assumptions: You want focused work time, no meetings. "This afternoon" = a typical focus window.

Suggested calendar block:

  • Time: 2:00–3:00 PM today
  • Title: Board Email Review & Actions
  • Show as: Busy

How to add quickly (Outlook Calendar):

  • Open Calendar
  • Click today at 2:00 PM, drag to 3:00 PM
  • Add the title above and save

✅ End result

By doing this, you now have: 📩 Board emails automatically flagged  ✅ Every board request tracked in your task list  🕒 A protected hour to process and act on them. If you want, next we can: auto-create tasks with a specific due date, get a daily digest of board emails, or turn this into a recurring weekly board-review block. Just say the word.

Three apps. Three separate conversations. Context lost every handoff. ✕

Power Automate vs. Microclaw

Say it once.
It runs forever.

Power Automate asks you to build flows, configure connectors, and debug error logs. Microclaw lets you just describe what you want — in plain English, in the same Teams conversation you already use. It handles everything else, and fires the moment the trigger happens.

Power Automate

Power Automate calls itself no-code, but rarely is. Conditions mean expressions. Branch logic means diagrams. When Microsoft updates a connector, flows break without warning — you only find out when nothing happens. Want to change the rule? Back in the builder. Want five automations? Five flows to build, test, and maintain.

45 minutes of setup. Breaks when connectors update. ✕

What it does

Your entire M365 environment.
One conversation.

Email, calendar, tasks, Excel, files, Teams, OneNote, Planner, SharePoint — read and write across all of it in one conversation.

Outlook

Email

Read, search, summarize, send, reply, forward, flag, and draft. Ask it to find emails by topic, person, or date. Have it synthesize a thread before you reply. Reads attachments too — PDFs, Word docs, and images.

Outlook Calendar

Calendar

Create, update, and delete events. "Find a time for me, Sarah, and Tom this week" — it checks everyone's availability and proposes slots. Set reminders and get a morning briefing of your day.

Microsoft Teams

Teams

Send messages to channels, read channel history, @mention colleagues. Everything you do in Teams manually, done in plain English.

People

Contacts & people

Look up colleagues, check availability and presence, find anyone in your org directory. Create and update contacts.

Microsoft To Do

To Do

Create and manage your personal task list. Mark things complete, set due dates, and stay on top of follow-ups — all from the same conversation.

Microsoft Planner

Planner

Create and update tasks on team boards. Assign work, track status, and move cards — without leaving your Teams conversation.

OneDrive

OneDrive

Read, search, upload, and summarize your personal files. Ask it to find a document, pull key points from a report, or save an attachment.

SharePoint

SharePoint

Search and read files across team sites and group libraries. Find shared documents, pull content from a team site, or check what's in a project folder.

OneNote

OneNote

Read notebooks and pages. Pull content from your notes into a conversation, answer questions about your notebook, search across sections.

Microsoft Excel

Excel

Read data and update specific cells or ranges — without downloading the file. Works on any Excel file in OneDrive or SharePoint. Ask it what's in a column, update a value, or pull a summary from a table.

Automations

Set up rules in plain English. "When I get an email from the board, flag it and create a task." Fires the moment it happens — not on a timer.

Works wherever Teams does

Message Microclaw from your phone, desktop, or browser — wherever Teams runs, Microclaw is there. It runs in the cloud, not on your machine, so it's always on — even when your laptop is off.

Cross-app search

One search across email, files, people, and sites at the same time. Find anything in your Microsoft 365 account without knowing where it lives.

Meeting transcripts

Summarize meetings, extract action items, and answer questions about what was discussed — minutes after a call ends.

Scheduled tasks

Tell it to do something at a specific time. "Every Monday at 9am, send me a summary of last week's emails from the sales team." It remembers.

Learns how you work

Tell it your preferences once — how you like emails formatted, who to always CC, what to skip — and it applies them every time.

Setup

Three steps.
No setup. No IT.

Install from AppSource, sign in with your Microsoft account, and start talking. No technical setup, no API keys, no infrastructure to manage.

1

Install from AppSource

Find Microclaw in the Microsoft AppSource marketplace and click Get it now. Your subscription starts immediately — billed monthly through Microsoft.

Microsoft AppSource
2

Sign in with Microsoft

Open Teams and message the Microclaw bot. Sign in with your existing Microsoft 365 account. Microclaw inherits your permissions exactly — it can only do what you can do.

Microsoft sign-in
3

Start talking

That's it. Ask it anything — read my emails, schedule a meeting, create a task, check a spreadsheet. No manual, no training. Just plain English.

Microsoft Teams
Need stronger data residency?

Orgs with compliance requirements can deploy Microclaw to their own Azure subscription — your data never touches our infrastructure. Same $25/month; you pay your own Azure hosting (~$13/mo) and OpenAI usage directly to Microsoft. No message cap. Browser-based setup takes about 15 minutes, guided step by step. See how each plan handles your data →

Privacy & compliance

Two deployment options.
One honest answer for each.

Most AI tools give you vague privacy assurances. We give you two clearly defined options — pick the one that fits your requirements.

Standard plan
🔒

Encrypted in transit. Never stored.

Your messages and Microsoft 365 data transit our servers to process your request. We never store conversation content after a session ends. Data is encrypted in transit. Strict per-tenant isolation is enforced at the database layer — no cross-tenant access is possible by design.

🧹

Nothing retained after your conversation ends

When your conversation is over, the content is gone. We retain user preferences you explicitly save (like writing style or key contacts) and your automation rules — nothing else. Cancel your subscription and we retain nothing.

🪪

Delegated auth — we act as you, not above you

Microclaw uses your Microsoft account credentials via delegated OAuth. It can only access what your account can access — it has no elevated privileges. Your organization's existing Microsoft permissions and Purview policies apply automatically.

Your data never touches our infrastructure

Microclaw deploys as a container inside your Azure subscription. Every message, every Graph API call, every AI query stays within your own Microsoft environment. We supply the software; you control the servers. Purview, DLP, and eDiscovery apply automatically — no configuration required.

💡

Same $25/seat base fee. You pay your own infrastructure.

Same 8 team plans as Standard — Solo through Team-100, all at $25 per seat. You additionally pay Azure costs directly to Microsoft: Container Apps hosting ~$13/month fixed, plus Azure OpenAI usage (~$5–14/seat/month at typical use). Microclaw never sees those charges. No Microclaw-side message cap either — usage is limited only by your own Azure OpenAI spend.

How it works →
Permissions & control

It can only do
what you allow.

Read and write are separate permissions for every app. Microclaw can see your email by default — but sending email, managing files, or creating calendar events requires you to turn it on explicitly. Your organization can lock specific permissions at the admin level before users ever see them.

📖

Read on by default

Microclaw can see your email, calendar, tasks, and files out of the box — so it can help without any configuration.

✏️

Write permissions off by default

Sending email, creating calendar events, uploading files — all off by default. One toggle to enable any of them, and just as easy to turn back off.

🏛️

Admins can lock anything

IT can restrict permissions org-wide before deployment. Locked rows can't be changed by individual users.

Privacy & trust

What we never do.

You're giving Microclaw access to your email, calendar, and files. Here's exactly what that means — and what it doesn't.

We never store your messages

Conversations are processed in memory and discarded the moment a response is sent. Nothing is written to a database. There is no conversation log on our end.

We never train on your data

Your email, calendar events, and files are never used to train models — ours or anyone else's. Your data is only ever read in the context of fulfilling your specific request.

We only touch what you ask us to touch

Microclaw reads and writes only the specific resource your request requires. It does not scan your inbox proactively, index your files in the background, or retain access between conversations.

All data is encrypted in transit

Every request between your Teams client, Microclaw, and Microsoft's APIs is encrypted over TLS. Nothing travels in plain text. No intermediary storage. Request in, response out.

Your Microsoft permissions control everything

Microclaw operates within the OAuth scopes your admin approves. It cannot do anything your Microsoft 365 permissions don't already allow. You can revoke access at any time from your Microsoft account settings.

Want full control? Host it yourself.

The Self-Hosted plan runs entirely within your own Azure subscription. Your data never leaves your environment. We ship the software; you run the infrastructure. See pricing →

FAQ

Common questions

It depends on which deployment you use. Standard plan: Your messages and Microsoft 365 data transit our servers to process your request — the same way any Teams bot works. We never store conversation content after a session ends. Everything is encrypted in transit, and strict tenant isolation ensures no cross-tenant access. Self-Hosted plan: Microclaw runs inside your own Azure subscription. Your data never touches our infrastructure — it stays within your Microsoft environment the entire time.
For the Standard plan: No. Install directly in Teams, sign in with your Microsoft account, and start using it. No technical setup, no IT ticket. For the Self-Hosted plan: You'll need an Azure subscription — most organizations already have one. Setup is browser-based and guided step by step, taking about 15 minutes. No DevOps knowledge or IT ticket required. If you can log into Azure portal, you can complete the setup.
Copilot is built into individual Microsoft apps — Outlook, Teams, Word — one app at a time. The free version that comes with M365 can't access your inbox at all — it asks you to paste content in. The paid add-on can read your email, but only inside Outlook, starting fresh each time. It can't check your calendar, create a task, and send a reply all in one conversation. Microclaw connects directly to your entire Microsoft 365 account and acts across all of it in a single thread. Ask it to "check my email, find anything urgent, create tasks, and send a summary to my team" and it does all of it at once.
Power Automate is a rule builder, not an AI. You drag and drop pre-built blocks — but you're limited to whatever Microsoft has pre-built. Anything beyond the basics requires connector configuration and developer-style debugging. It's marketed as no-code but hits a wall fast for anyone who isn't technical. Microclaw lets you just say what you want in plain English — "when I get an email from the board, flag it and create a task" — and it handles the rest. No blocks, no connectors, no IT call.
Standard plan: $25 per seat per month, billed through Microsoft AppSource via a team plan matching your size (Solo, Team-3, Team-5, Team-10, Team-15, Team-25, Team-50, or Team-100). Each plan includes 1,500 messages per seat (pooled across your team). Usage above your plan's included quota is $0.01/message, also billed on your Microsoft invoice. The vast majority of users never reach the threshold. No Azure account needed. Self-Hosted plan: Same $25 per seat per month and same 8 team-plan structure. No Microclaw-side message overage — you additionally pay Azure infrastructure costs directly to Microsoft: Container Apps hosting ~$13/month fixed + Azure OpenAI usage (~$5–14/seat/month at typical use). All-in for a single user: ~$43–52/month. For a team of 5+, per-seat cost drops toward ~$30–39 as the fixed hosting cost amortizes.
Microclaw signs in as you using your Microsoft account — it can only access what you can access. Out of the box, all read permissions are on (it can see your email, calendar, tasks, and files) and all write permissions are off (it cannot send, create, or modify anything). You turn on write permissions individually from the settings page. Easy to enable, easy to turn back off.
Standard plan: Cancel your AppSource subscription and we retain nothing. Conversation history is not stored persistently — there is nothing to delete on our end. Your Microsoft 365 data — emails, calendar, files — is completely unaffected. It lives in Microsoft 365, not in Microclaw. Self-Hosted plan: Cancel your AppSource subscription to stop billing. Remove the container from your Azure account at any time. All conversation history and preferences lived in your Azure container — they are entirely under your control.
Both plans support individual users and full org deployments. An admin can deploy Microclaw across their team, control which permissions are available to users, and manage usage org-wide — on either plan. On the Standard plan, each team member signs in with their own Microsoft account; no shared Azure subscription required. On the Self-Hosted plan, the Azure hosting cost (~$13/month) is fixed regardless of how many users you have, so org deployments are cost-efficient at scale.
The Standard plan includes 1,500 messages per seat per month, pooled across your team (so heavy users can absorb light users' unused quota). Usage beyond your plan's total is $0.01/message, billed automatically on your Microsoft invoice — it never hard-stops. A heavy daily user sending 50 messages every working day of the month would use about 1,100 messages and stay well under the threshold. If you do go over, the overage charge at $0.01/message is small — 200 extra messages is $2. The Self-Hosted plan has no message cap because you pay your own Azure OpenAI costs directly.
