Common questions ## Questions about ChatGPT and Claude ### Is it safe to use ChatGPT at work? It can be, on a business plan with the right settings. Most of the risk comes from personal accounts and people pasting in client or financial details. A business plan, company sign-in and a few data rules deal with most of it. ### Do ChatGPT and Claude train on our business data? Not by default on their business plans. OpenAI and Anthropic both say business plan data isn't used to train their models unless you choose to share it. Free and personal accounts work differently, which is why we move people off them. ### Should we use ChatGPT, Claude or Microsoft Copilot? It depends on the work. Copilot lives inside Outlook, Teams and your files. ChatGPT and Claude are strong for writing, analysis and research. Plenty of businesses use Copilot plus one of the others, and we'll help you work out what fits. ### Which ChatGPT or Claude plan do we need? For most businesses with 5 to 50 staff, an entry business plan is enough. Enterprise plans add controls such as automatic user provisioning, audit logs and custom data retention. We match the plan to the controls you need, and check the current plan details with you before you buy. ### Can you stop staff pasting sensitive data into AI tools? Yes, on devices we manage. Microsoft Purview can warn or block when someone pastes things like card numbers or tax file numbers into an AI website, and Defender for Cloud Apps can block AI apps you haven't approved. ### What does it cost? Our setup is a fixed price, quoted after a short scoping chat. ChatGPT and Claude licences are charged per user by OpenAI and Anthropic, and we'll show you those costs before anything is bought.
