The platform for practical AI,inside your Azure environment
SmartSpace is an enterprise AI platform deployed directly inside your Azure tenant. It connects AI to your real business data and systems, with governance, access controls, and operational structure built in from the start.
Easier to trust. Easier to deploy. Easier to scale.
The reasons organisations choose SmartSpace over stitched-together tooling or slow custom-build approaches.
Deployed inside your Azure tenant
SmartSpace runs inside your own Azure environment. Your data stays within the boundary you already govern. No shared infrastructure, no third-party SaaS risk.
Connected to real business data
AI is only useful when it works with real content. SmartSpace connects to your files, databases, content stores, and line-of-business systems so each use case operates on live, meaningful data.
Reusable workspaces as the unit of value
Each use case gets its own workspace. Data sources, access controls, model configuration, and user interface brought together in one governed environment.
Flows that turn use cases into operations
Flows extend workspaces into repeatable, multi-step processes. What starts as a use case becomes a reliable part of how teams get work done.
A faster path from concept to production
The SmartSpace platform removes the custom-build work that slows most AI programmes. Configure rather than construct. Deploy your first use case in weeks.
Governance built in as an enabler
Entra ID, RBAC, audit logging, and compliance-aligned controls are built into the platform. Governance supports deployment, it does not block it.
Infrastructure, Workspaces, and Flows: one coherent system
SmartSpace is not a loose set of tools. The three layers work together so that every use case you add is faster and more governed than the last.
The Azure-native technical foundation
SmartSpace Infrastructure is the foundation everything else runs on. Deployed inside your Azure tenant, it provides the AI model integrations, data connectivity, access controls, and operational scaffolding that every workspace and flow can rely on. You configure once at the platform level. Each new use case builds on the same foundation without re-work.
- Deployed inside your Azure tenant from day one
- Azure OpenAI and Azure AI Foundry integrations
- Data connectors for files, databases, and line-of-business systems
- Entra ID, RBAC, audit logging at the platform layer
The operational environment for each use case
A workspace brings together everything a specific use case needs: the relevant data sources, the right model configuration, the appropriate access controls, and a ready-to-use interface. Each workspace is governed from the moment it is created. Business users can start using it immediately. Technical teams can extend it when needed.
- One workspace per use case, governed from day one
- Connected to approved data sources for that use case
- User interface and access configured for the right audience
- Reuse the same pattern for every subsequent use case
The process layer that makes use cases operational
Flows extend workspaces into repeatable, multi-step processes. They let teams build coordinated AI workflows that run on the same connected data and governance as the workspace they belong to. A use case that works as a workspace becomes an operational process through Flows, without re-building the foundation.
- Multi-step AI workflows built on workspace foundations
- Consistent governance across every step of a flow
- Batch processing, automation, and repeatable operations
- Extend into operational capability without extra infrastructure
A platform that supports progression, not just setup
SmartSpace is designed for organisations that want to move beyond a single pilot. Each step uses the same foundation, so expanding is faster and more consistent.
Define one real use case
Start with a specific business problem, a clear data source, and a defined team. Not a proof of concept with synthetic data. A real use case from the start.
Deploy on the SmartSpace foundation
The platform provides the infrastructure. Your team connects the relevant data sources and configures the workspace. No custom-building the foundations from scratch.
Validate against real workflows
Business users interact with a governed, connected AI environment. Feedback is fast because the data is real and the use case is practical.
Expand on the same platform
The second use case builds on the same infrastructure. Same governance model. Same connectivity patterns. Easier to manage, faster to deploy.
Same platform. Every use case. Governance, data connectivity, and infrastructure carry across. Adding a new workspace means configuration, not re-construction.
Built for Azure-native, Microsoft-aligned organisations
SmartSpace is deployed natively on Azure, not alongside it. It integrates with Azure OpenAI, Azure AI Foundry, Entra ID, and Azure Storage. If your organisation already runs on Azure, SmartSpace fits inside the environment your teams already understand and your security team already governs.
SmartSpace is available on the Azure Marketplace, supporting procurement through existing Microsoft agreements. Co-sell routes are available for Microsoft-aligned organisations that want to deploy through their existing commercial relationship.

Your environment. Your governance.
SmartSpace is deployed inside your Azure tenant. Not shared infrastructure. Not a third-party SaaS platform. Governance and access controls are built into the platform so they are never an afterthought.
Your Azure environment
Deployed inside your tenant. Data residency inside the boundary you already govern.
Customer-controlled access
Entra ID, RBAC, and configurable data permissions enforced at every layer.
Governance from day one
Audit logging, compliance-aligned controls, and access governance built into the platform.
Designed for enterprise scale
The same governance and controls that work for one workspace scale across many without rework.
The clearest path to your first live use case
Kickstart is a structured programme that takes you from a defined use case to a live, governed SmartSpace workspace inside your Azure environment. Our specialists work alongside your team to scope, connect the right data, and deploy, so you get real business value quickly, without months of planning work.
The first use case creates a foundation. Every subsequent use case builds on the same platform, the same governance model, and the same data connectivity patterns.
Define
A specific use case, the right data sources, and a clear team to deliver value to.
Configure
SmartSpace provides the infrastructure. You configure the workspace for the use case.
Deploy
A governed, connected AI workspace inside your Azure tenant. Live in weeks.
Expand
Validate value. Identify the next use case. Build on the same platform foundation.
