How we work with partners

Pick the help that fits your practice

Mix and match — start with your own setup, then bring us in on your first few customers, or have your team run them from day one.

  • Your own GitHub setup

    We set up GitHub Enterprise and Copilot in your own tenant — the same secure foundation you will deliver, so your team works in it before your customers do.

    Set up our own GitHub
  • Accelerated customer setups

    Bring us your customers and we deliver the setup with you or for you. You keep the relationship and the ongoing work; we get them live fast.

  • GitHub admin uplift

    Hands-on upskilling for your engineers on GitHub Enterprise administration — identity, policies, security features, Copilot seats and billing — so you can run setups yourselves.

    Uplift our team

What every setup includes

  • GitHub Enterprise deployment
  • Entra ID sign-in and provisioning
  • Secret scanning and push protection
  • Branch protection policies and audit logging
  • Defender for Cloud integration
  • Azure billing configuration
  • GitHub Copilot enabled with guardrails

Why now

What the new Microsoft Copilot needs from GitHub

Microsoft is bringing chat, delegated work, app building and always-on agents together in one Copilot app (opens in a new tab). Your customers' Autopilot rollouts need GitHub Copilot seats and policy, and Code works best building into repositories they already govern — setup work partners are well placed to deliver.

  • Home

    Chat and Cowork in one place — ask a quick question, or hand Copilot a task and get back a finished result.

    No GitHub needed.

    Microsoft 365 Copilot Cowork (opens in a new tab)

  • Code

    Describe an app, tracker, dashboard or automation in plain language and Copilot builds it, in a sandbox inside your tenant, on the same technology as GitHub Copilot.

    GitHub optional — connect your own GitHub Enterprise Cloud repositories and your branch policies and pull-request reviews apply to what people build.

    Copilot Managed Runtime (opens in a new tab)

  • Autopilot

    Always-on agents with a role and a goal that watch channels, follow up threads and run recurring work.

    GitHub required in preview — each user needs a GitHub account and a GitHub Copilot Business or Enterprise seat, with Copilot policies enabled.

    Autopilot admin requirements (opens in a new tab)

Home and Code are rolling out through Microsoft's Frontier program (opens in a new tab); Autopilot is in preview.
