For customers

It’s Bernie’s grandson’s birthday soon. The gift at the top of his wish list is the big new release in his favourite gaming franchise. Bernie knows that his grandson will receive the game from his parents, but he’s struggling for gift ideas of his own.


Unfamiliar with the world of gaming, Bernie turns to Copilot to ask for recommended gifts for his grandson. Copilot provides a list of suggested accessories for the game – informing Bernie that the most exciting feature of the new title is that it’s now compatible with a new VR headset. Bernie now has perfect gift in time for his grandson’s birthday.   

For store associates

Jordan has taken a job at consumer electronics store, which stocks thousands of items. But Jordan isn’t much of a techie and isn’t familiar with many product lines. He needs to improve his knowledge of the product range, so he can be more confident when advising a diverse range of customers.
