Microsoft licence check
Tell us which Microsoft plan you have and what you want to add. A few questions later you see what your plan already covers, which licences are missing and how many, and what they cost. Free, no sign-in.
It covers Copilot, Teams Phone and calling, shared mailboxes and archiving, Power BI report sharing, Power Apps, Power Automate, and Microsoft Defender and Intune features.
Guidance at Microsoft list prices, not a quotation. Each line of the result explains the licence in plain words and links to the Microsoft page behind it. Where an answer is not known, the result says what it could not decide instead of guessing. Your answers stay in this browser until you send them.

Already covered, still missing, carrier and usage costs, setup steps, the other valid ways to license it, and what could not be decided. Change an answer
Keep it, or ask us for a quote
The email carries the result as tables and the link that rebuilds it. A quote comes back from the entity that invoices your region, at your contracted terms. We sell to legal entities only.
How the answer is made
Every result is built from published rules with a Microsoft source behind each line and a version date, and nothing is guessed. Eight things worth knowing before you rely on it.
Seven kinds of thing that are usually blurred together: what a licence you hold already includes; a prerequisite licence that must be there first; a user add-on for each person; capacity bought for a tenant, an environment or a machine; a licence on a resource account such as a shared mailbox or a call queue; an external telecom contract; and a consumption cost billed by use. Settings and migrations are listed apart, and never as something to buy.
Because an answer that changes the licensing is missing, and a guess would be worse than no answer. Every question says why it is asked; the result lists the ones still open and what each would change. It never reports “ready” while one of them is unknown.
Each missing licence is priced on its own, on the plan you hold today. But a higher plan of the same family often includes several of them at once: Business Premium has the Intune, Entra ID P1 and Defender that Business Basic and Standard lack; E5 has most of the security add-ons sold to E3. So the check runs the whole request again with each higher plan in place of yours. Costs the same or less: it is the recommendation. Up to 15% more: shown for comparison. Either way you see what the higher plan brings beyond what you asked for, which the business can use later at no extra cost.
From Microsoft: the service descriptions, the licensing pages on Microsoft Learn, Microsoft’s licensing announcements and Partner Center. Every rule carries its source and the date we checked it, with the date Microsoft last updated the page where it shows one, and each result prints them. The Microsoft Product Terms and your own agreement remain the controlling documents; this is guidance, not a legal reading of them.
A new ruleset is published under a new date; the old one is kept. A link to a result opens with the ruleset it was made with and says so, and offers the current one. A rule with a start date in the future is already in the pack and shows as “changing soon” until that day.
Education, nonprofit and government tenants, sovereign clouds, rights from older volume-licensing agreements and contract amendments: the checker stops and says so. It does not read your tenant, buy or assign anything. Capabilities outside the seven are a question for a person.
From Microsoft’s list price for your region on the date the result shows, in the currency you chose. Every figure names its commitment: per month on a monthly commitment, per year on an annual one, and a product sold on an annual commitment only says so. Taxes are excluded. It is an estimate at list price, not a quotation; your contracted price comes from the IT Partner entity that invoices your region.
The plan advisor chooses plans for the whole company from what each team needs. The licence check starts from the plan you already have and what you want to add to it. Both read the same licensing catalogue, and a test compares their answers on the cases they share before either is changed. If you know the product and want the price, the price list is quicker.
