ChatGPT for Business

Deploy ChatGPT under company control

Your people are probably already using ChatGPT on personal accounts. We move that usage into a company workspace with single sign-on, clear rules and safe connections to Microsoft 365.

What a ChatGPT deployment with Accred includes

Accred Consulting deploys ChatGPT Business and ChatGPT Enterprise for US small and mid-size organizations. We verify your domains, connect sign-in to Microsoft Entra ID with SAML single sign-on and, where the plan supports it, SCIM user provisioning, set workspace roles and data retention, decide which connectors and custom GPTs are allowed, govern access to SharePoint, OneDrive, Outlook and Teams data, find personal ChatGPT use with Defender for Cloud Apps, and train each team on safe, practical workflows.

ChatGPT rollout with Microsoft 365 alignment

ChatGPT gets more useful when it can reach your files and email, and riskier for the same reason. We connect it to Microsoft 365 only after identity, permissions and data rules are in place.

FAQ

ChatGPT deployment questions

Business suits smaller teams that need a managed workspace, admin controls and single sign-on. Enterprise adds stronger controls for larger or regulated organizations, such as automated user provisioning, compliance and audit integrations, and more admin options. We compare current plan features against your size and requirements before you buy.
Yes. ChatGPT business workspaces support SAML single sign-on, and Enterprise supports SCIM provisioning, so Entra ID can control who gets access and remove people automatically when they leave. We also add Conditional Access so sign-in follows the same rules as Microsoft 365.
It can be, once permissions are clean. Connectors usually act with the user's own access, so overshared sites and links become reachable through ChatGPT. We review and fix Microsoft 365 permissions, decide which connectors are allowed, and document the rules before enabling them.
OpenAI states that data from ChatGPT business and enterprise workspaces is not used to train its models by default. Because terms and settings change, we confirm current data use, retention and admin settings for your plan during setup and record them in your AI policy.
Give them a better approved option first, then add controls. We find personal AI use with Defender for Cloud Apps, apply endpoint and browser DLP to warn or block sensitive data on unmanaged AI sites, and move users into the company workspace with a clear policy.
Yes. Many organizations use Copilot inside Microsoft 365 apps and ChatGPT for broader drafting and analysis. We set one acceptable-use policy, one identity process and the same data rules for both so they do not drift apart.
