Claudepilots AI Community

Our philosophy at GoodAgents is simple: find what works best.

Not what's trending. Not what has the biggest marketing budget. What actually delivers results for the charities and nonprofits we work with.

When we partner with organisations, we start by discovering their pain points. And the outcome we push for? We want it all. We want to arm staff with every possible tool that helps them do their job better. Our governance frameworks don't restrict, they equip. If it's safe and secure, we want you using it.

That philosophy led us to an uncomfortable conclusion: there isn't one AI tool that does everything well. The professionals getting real results are combining two.

That's why we're launching Claudepilots, a community where nonprofit professionals learn to maximise both Microsoft Copilot and Claude AI, together.

Why Two Tools? Because They Do Different Things Brilliantly

I've spent the last year helping dozens of charities implement AI. The pattern is clear: organisations trying to do everything with one tool hit walls. Those combining Copilot and Claude? They're flying.

Microsoft Copilot integrates directly with your Microsoft environment. It reads your emails, summarises your Teams meetings, drafts responses in Outlook, and searches across your SharePoint. If your charity runs on Microsoft 365, Copilot already understands your work context. And critically for charities, even the free Copilot Chat comes with enterprise-grade data protection. Your conversations aren't training Microsoft's models.

Claude is simply the best model for reasoning and long-form content. When you need to write a compelling grant application, craft a corporate partnership proposal, or develop case studies that actually move funders, Claude outperforms everything else I've tested. The writing is nuanced. The thinking is structured. And for nonprofits, Anthropic now offers up to 75% off their Team and Enterprise plans.

Together, they cover the full spectrum of what nonprofit professionals actually need.

What You Get Inside Claudepilots

For £29/month, members access:

  • Template library: Prompts and workflows specifically built for nonprofit contexts, from grant applications to board reports
  • Case studies: Real examples from real charities (anonymised where needed) showing what actually works
  • Weekly live sessions: We build, we debug, we answer questions. Bring your stuck prompts and half-finished workflows
  • Video tutorials: Step-by-step guides for both tools, updated as features change
  • Community chat: Connect with other nonprofit professionals figuring this out alongside you

This isn't theory. It's practical, applied AI for people who have real work to do.

The Real Numbers: What This Actually Costs

Let's talk money, because I know budgets are tight.

Microsoft Copilot

Free option: Copilot Chat is included with your Microsoft 365 subscription at no extra cost. You get secure AI chat grounded in web results, and it's now rolling out to Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and OneNote. This is enough to start.

Full Copilot for Microsoft 365: This is where the deep integration happens. Meeting summaries, email drafting, document generation from your own data.

  • UK price: £23.10 per user/month (billed annually)
  • Nonprofit price (15% discount): approximately £19.60 per user/month

Note: You need an eligible Microsoft 365 plan (Business Basic, Standard, Premium, or E3/E5) as a prerequisite. Most charities already have this.

Pro tip: You don't need a licence for everyone. Buy 3-5 licences and rotate them to your power users or the team members with the heaviest Microsoft workflow. Copilot licences can be reassigned as needed.

Claude for Nonprofits

Free tier: Basic access to Claude. Good for testing, limited for serious work.

Claude Team (Nonprofit pricing): This is the game-changer. Anthropic announced 75% discounts for eligible nonprofits in December 2024.

  • Standard Team price: $25/seat/month
  • Nonprofit price: approximately $8/seat/month
  • Minimum team size: 5 seats
  • Annual commitment for a team of 5: $480/year (around £380)

To access nonprofit pricing, verify your charity status through Goodstack (takes 2-3 minutes) and you're in.

A Realistic Team Setup

Here's what a practical AI toolkit looks like for a small charity:

ItemAnnual Cost
3 x Copilot licences (nonprofit rate)~£705
5 x Claude Team (nonprofit rate)~£380
TotalUnder £1,100/year

Three Copilot licences you rotate between your heaviest Microsoft users. Full Claude Team access for five staff members who need serious writing and reasoning support.

That's enterprise-grade AI capability for less than most charities spend on a single training day.

The Claudepilots Membership

£29/month. No long-term commitment. Cancel anytime.

If a single template saves you 2 hours of work, you've paid for the year.

Who This Is For

Claudepilots is built for:

  • Grant writers who want to cut application drafting time by 70% without sacrificing quality
  • Fundraisers building corporate partnership proposals who need compelling, personalised approaches at scale
  • Heads of departments drowning in admin who want their weekends back
  • Communications teams producing content across multiple channels
  • Anyone curious enough to invest in their own capability rather than waiting for their organisation to figure this out

If you're satisfied with how things are, this isn't for you. If you're ambitious, curious, or simply sick of working harder when you could be working smarter, join us.

What This Isn't

This isn't a course you complete and forget. It's not passive content you'll never watch. It's not another Slack channel that becomes noise.

It's a working community. Show up to the live sessions. Ask questions. Share what you're building. The members who get the most value are the ones who engage.

Getting Started

We're launching with founding member pricing at £29/month. Join now, and that price is locked for as long as you stay a member.

Every superhero needs a sidekick. With Copilot handling your Microsoft environment and Claude powering your writing, you'll have two.
