ChangePilot
Change intelligence for Microsoft 365: every Message Center and Roadmap change summarised, scored and explained by Microsoft MVPs, so service owners can run change as a process instead of a surprise.
The problem every Microsoft 365 team has
Microsoft ships hundreds of changes a month across the Message Center and the Roadmap. Most are noise for you; a few will break something, change how people work, or need a decision before a date you did not notice. Reading all of it is nobody's job, so it gets skimmed, forwarded, and forgotten until something changes on a Monday morning.
ChangePilot exists because we had this problem ourselves, and because every service owner in this community told us they had it too.
What ChangePilot does
Every change in five bullets or fewer
Each Message Center and Roadmap item rewritten into plain English: what is changing, who it affects, and when.
Impact for admins and for users
Two impact scores and a tracked deployment date, so you can sort the month by what matters instead of by when Microsoft posted it.
MVP-led change calls
Every month the Microsoft MVPs behind this community walk through the changes that matter, on a call you can bring your team to.

Why trust it
ChangePilot is built and run by the same people who produce this community's briefings, the Teams Insider podcast and the M365 Perspective newsletter. The summaries and scores are written by Microsoft MVPs who work with enterprise Microsoft 365 estates every week, not generated and forgotten. It is used by global enterprises to run Microsoft 365 change as a managed process rather than a monthly surprise.
"ChangePilot has been extremely valuable for identifying relevant changes without having to trawl through the M365 Message Center. Non-technical Knowledge Managers can identify user experience changes and admins can spot the changes that need action."Service Manager, UC & Digital Workplace — multi-national security firm, 50,000 seats
"By utilising ChangePilot and its automated change process, HSF Kramer has achieved Level 500 of the Microsoft 365 Maturity Model, significantly decreasing downstream service disruption of changes by ensuring user and technical admins are informed of changes in advance."Albie Mills, Global Product Owner, Unified Communications — HSF Kramer
