DWxLicense Pulse
Microsoft's Admin Center shows what you purchased, not what you are wasting. License Pulse hydrates a Power BI dashboard from the Graph API within 24 hours and adds a Copilot Studio advisor you can simply ask. Redundant E3-and-E5 assignments, inactive accounts on premium SKUs and around 15% shelfware become visible, costed and recoverable.

The problem
Organisations lack visibility into M365 licensing waste. Users hold both E3 and E5, around 15% of licences are unused shelfware, inactive and disabled accounts keep consuming premium SKUs past 90 days, and there is no accountability between IT spend and business-unit consumption. Worse, there is too little data to negotiate the next Enterprise Agreement renewal.
What it does
- A real-time Power BI dashboard with 11 pre-built reports
- An AI Advisor, a Copilot Studio interface you query in plain English, grounded in your tenant data
- A 30 / 60 / 90-day inactivity slider you adjust live to model cost recovery
- E3 vs E5 feature-utilisation analysis with auto-generated downgrade candidates
- A financial accountability and chargeback engine, broken down by department
- Multi-currency support (USD, EUR, ZAR)
- Drill-down to individual users, with export-ready output for finance
- Narrative panels that explain the data and recommend the next action
