AI coworkers for Microsoft Teams

AI agents you can bring to work.

Burli coworkers join your team in Microsoft Teams. Give each one a role, the connections it needs and the permissions you choose, then hand it real work.

A coworker starts with a little hatching.

Give it a name, find its look and choose a home for your team. Explore the steps before you sign in.

1. Name

Meet Pip. Or someone entirely yours.

Choose a name and describe the work you have in mind. A welcoming teammate for new starters, perhaps?

2. Look

A face you’ll recognise in the chat.

In setup, explore looks, keep the parts you like and shuffle the rest. You can undo a change or choose a different look later.

3. Home

Somewhere your team can find it.

Choose your organisation’s Burli home address. This is where you manage coworkers and their connections.

4. Hatch

Watch your coworker take shape.

Follow setup progress, then open its workspace. Connect the apps it needs and complete the Microsoft approvals to bring it into Teams.

Hatch your coworker

What a coworker can do

Hand it the work, not the steps.

A coworker gathers what it needs, uses the tools you have connected and brings back work your team can review.

Research and find

Searches the web and your connected knowledge, opens the documents you send and gives clear answers with sources.

  • Web research
  • Your files and notes
  • PDFs, Word and spreadsheets
  • Your Microsoft 365 context

For example“Compare these two policies and tell me what has changed.”

Explore a comparison

Where to check

Analyse and create

Turns data and notes into reports, spreadsheets, charts and visuals your team can use.

  • PDF reports
  • Excel spreadsheets
  • Charts in Teams
  • Images from a description

A report your team can work with

  1. The overview: the quarter’s main movements and the figures behind them.
  2. The visual: a chart comparing results with the previous quarter.
  3. The discussion: questions to take into your next team meeting.

Built from the data you provide, with gaps called out for review.

Sends email from its own mailbox, messages colleagues, books meetings and works in the apps you connect, within the rules you set.

  • Email, recipients checked first
  • Teams messages
  • Books Teams meetings
  • Connected apps
  • Browser tasks
  • Files to SharePoint

For example“Book a meeting with the three of us next week and send the agenda.”

Ready for your confirmation

Attendees and time
Confirm the three people and a proposed time next week before booking.
Draft agenda
Review progress, work through open decisions and agree the next steps.

On day one, the agenda email is a draft for a person to review and send.

Work on a schedule

Runs recurring work on its own timetable and tells you where it is up to on long jobs.

  • Recurring work
  • Dashboard reports
  • Emailed reports
  • Several things at once
  • Progress updates
  • Live task checklist

For example“Every Monday at 8, check the register and post what is overdue.”

Explore a weekly digest
Illustrative result

Monday’s overdue check

What needs attention
A list of overdue items, their owners and due dates from the connected register.
Where to go next
The source records, so the team can review and follow up.

Recurring access and delivery follow the permissions you set. Teams messages start as drafts for review.

Examples are illustrative. What each coworker can do depends on the connections and permissions you give it.

Working together

Bring a team, not just a tool.

Give each coworker its own role, connections and permissions. When your organisation has more than one, they can hand work to each other and follow up.

Example
  1. AriaOperations coordinator
  2. Hands an IT request to Kai
  3. KaiService desk
  4. Hands a billing question to Marlo
  5. MarloAccounts assistant

Its own job

Each coworker gets a role, a brief, its own connections and its own permissions.

Tracked hand-offs

See who a task went to, whether it was picked up and the result they recorded.

Shared skills

A coworker can run another coworker’s skill with your permissions and bring back the result.

Learning on the job

Gets better at your work.

Coworkers keep playbooks and memory, so you don’t explain the same thing twice.

Follows your playbooks

Reads your team’s how-to playbooks before it acts, so work is done your way.

Learns as it works

Writes down the quirks and steps that mattered. Every change is recorded and reversible.

Suggests new skills

Notices tasks it keeps doing and proposes a reusable skill, noting the run it came from.

Remembers what matters

Keeps preferences, context and decisions in its own private memory, so you don’t repeat yourself.

Security and control

You decide how far it goes.

A coworker only reaches the services you connect, within the permissions you grant. Each permission comes down to three plain settings, and an owner can change them in the portal.

  • Allowed

    Goes ahead without asking.

    Reading and searching, and work inside its own workspace, like drafting files and running sandboxed scripts. In a connected app, everyday changes like adding a record also go ahead by default, within that connection’s permissions.

  • Asks first

    Checks with a person first.

    Emails and Teams messages start as drafts for a person to review and send. Before booking a meeting it confirms the time and attendees with you. In a connected app, changes it recognises as deleting, paying, sharing or sending ask first, and you can set any connection to ask before every change.

  • Off

    Not available.

    An owner can switch off any connection, any action in it, or any ability that changes things. New requests stop straight away.

On day one, a coworker can work inside its own workspace: drafting files, running sandboxed scripts and scheduling its own tasks. Emails and Teams messages start as drafts a person reviews and sends, meetings are confirmed with you before booking, and browser tasks and emailed reports start switched off. In connected apps, everyday changes go ahead while deleting, paying, sharing or sending asks first, unless you set the connection otherwise.

Scoped connections

Connect only the services you choose. Every action in a connected app is checked against that connection’s permissions and audited.

Its own environment

Your organisation has a dedicated coworker environment. Scripts run in a sandboxed workspace.

Human oversight

Material actions can be held for approval before they take effect. Changes to a connection’s access are made in the portal by people allowed to manage it.

Visible activity

Burli records coworker activity and usage so your team can review what happened and what was consumed.

Private file links

Generated files use private storage and download links that expire after seven days. Anyone with a valid link can open it.

Microsoft governance

Agent 365 registration and telemetry use administrator consent. Features depend on your tenant’s eligibility and licensing.

A few useful details

Before you get started.

Still have a question? Talk to our team.

How do we set up a coworker?

Sign in with your Microsoft work account. Setup guides you through creating a coworker, connecting services and adding it to Teams. A Microsoft administrator approves the permissions needed for your organisation.

Can we have more than one coworker?

Yes. Each coworker has its own role, connections and permissions. When your organisation has more than one, they can hand tasks to each other and follow up on the result.

What can a new coworker do on day one?

Work inside its own workspace: drafting files, planning tasks, running sandboxed scripts and scheduling its own work. Emails and Teams messages start as drafts for a person to review and send, meetings are confirmed with you before booking, and browser tasks and emailed reports start switched off. In connected apps, everyday changes go ahead while deleting, paying, sharing or sending asks first. An owner can change any of these.

What does Agent 365 integration include?

Burli supports agent registration and operational telemetry with separate Microsoft administrator approvals. Your portal shows setup status. Governance views depend on your Microsoft tenant’s eligibility, licensing and completed configuration.

How are generated files shared?

Generated files use private storage and time-limited links that expire after seven days. Anyone holding a valid link can open it, so share the link with the same care as the file itself.

What does GCIT’s ISO 27001 certification cover?

Burli is built by GCIT, an ISO 27001-certified Australian IT company. The certification applies to GCIT’s information security management system. Burli is not presented as a separately certified product.
