AI Is Only as Good as the Knowledge Behind It.
What makes an agent useful is the knowledge underneath it. Ours comes from licensed publishers and an editorial team that has curated business knowledge since 1999.
Inside Microsoft 365 Copilot and the Agents You Build.
One verified knowledge layer, delivered into the stack your teams already run.
Microsoft 365 Copilot
A connector Certified for Microsoft 365 Copilot.
Your people ask Copilot, and the answer draws on getAbstract knowledge with its source attached. IT turns it on in the Microsoft 365 admin center.
Agents you build
Copilot Studio, MCP and API.
Build an agent in Copilot Studio, or connect any MCP-compatible agent to the same verified knowledge.
Closed environments
Verified knowledge without open internet access.
For sovereign or restricted deployments, we curate web content on a schedule and deliver the verified layer to your AI.

Four Checks on the Knowledge Behind Your AI.
Whether the question is a learning path, a client recommendation or a regulatory obligation, the same four checks build confidence in the answers that matter most. Here is how getAbstract meets each one.
Curated
Who decided this belongs in the answer?
Our editors decide what enters the knowledge layer, judged on relevance to the work rather than popularity. The books we summarize are licensed at the source.
Current
Is it still true today?
The content inside our Microsoft connector is refreshed daily, with new summaries from books, online articles, reports, videos and podcasts.
Attributable
Where did it come from?
Answers trace back to a primary source your reviewers can open. We license content directly from our publishing partners and carry the attribution through.
Human-verified
Did a person check it?
Our editorial team is the gate. An in-house editorial process checks accuracy and consistency, and we have curated business knowledge since 1999.
27 Years of Editorial Curation, Engineered for AI.

Build confidence in Copilot answers that matter most

In this conversational lightning talk, getAbstract shares four checks for the answers that matter most: curated sources, current knowledge, clear attribution, and human verification.
