In a paid partnership with Microsoft, Matthew Berman compares his earlier software business with his current content business and describes how Microsoft 365 Copilot Business fits into his work. He reports personal time savings in writing and preliminary document review and describes a partnership-email automation. The estimates are his experience across different businesses, not independently verified performance guarantees.

  1. 1A Microsoft partnershipBerman identifies the video as a partnership and describes Microsoft 365 Copilot Business as part of his current workflow.
  2. 2Writing and documentationHe reports a drop from about ten to two hours a week and demonstrates an outline prompt.
  3. 3An initial contract reviewBerman describes asking Copilot to flag unusual contract terms and gives his own time estimates.
  4. 4A team automationHe describes a workflow for scoring partnership emails and adding promising ones to a spreadsheet.

ポイント

  1. Berman discloses that the video is a partnership with Microsoft.
  2. He estimates writing and documentation fell from ten to two hours a week, an 80% reduction in his own comparison.
  3. He says legal-document review fell from five hours to less than one; the on-screen graphic illustrates 30 minutes and 90%, but less than one hour alone does not establish exactly 90%.
  4. An AI first pass on a contract is not a guarantee that all unusual or important terms have been found; qualified legal review remains useful.
  5. He describes using a prompt to create an automation that scores partnership emails and records leading candidates.

Comparing two businesses

Berman introduces his Microsoft partnership and contrasts previous and current work. He cautions that software and content businesses are not an exact comparison.

Matthew Berman says running a business with AI feels very different from his earlier experience. He has started several businesses, some unsuccessful, sold his most recent one and now works full time as a content creator. He discloses that this video is a partnership with Microsoft, promoting Microsoft 365 Copilot Business.

Berman says his previous business was in software and his current work is content creation, so the comparison is not like for like. Nevertheless, he sees common tasks, beginning with strategy and process documents and email. He estimates that writing and documentation fell from about ten hours a week to two, an 80% reduction in his personal account.

02

Writing and contract review

Berman shares personal time estimates and examples of prompts for outlines and preliminary contract review. Results depend on the task and require verification.

A video-outline prompt
スライド 1 / 2A video-outline promptThe demonstration asks Copilot for a hook, three talking points and supporting examples.

One prompt he demonstrates asks Copilot to draft a video outline with a hook, three main talking points and supporting examples. He says the tool improves his ideation, research and writing while reducing the time he spends. These are his reported experiences, not a controlled comparison or guarantee of accuracy.

Berman says he previously spent considerable time reviewing legal documents and often sent them to counsel early. He now uses Copilot for an initial pass on documents such as employment agreements, NDAs and customer contracts, asking it to identify unusual or non-standard terms. A generated review can miss important issues, so an appropriate legal professional should review consequential contracts.

The presenter’s time-saving estimate
スライド 2 / 2The presenter’s time-saving estimateThe graphic compares five hours with 30 minutes; the spoken claim is less than one hour.

He estimates this work fell from about five hours a week to less than one and calls that a 90% time saving; an on-screen graphic specifies 30 minutes, which would equal 90%. The spoken range alone establishes a reduction of more than 80%, not necessarily exactly 90%. The video does not independently verify these estimates.

03

Automation and scaling

He describes a partnership-email scoring automation and argues that AI tools let more team members build workflows. He closes with Microsoft’s business guide.

Berman says team members who are not engineers can describe an automation to Copilot. His example scores incoming partnership emails and adds leading candidates to a spreadsheet. He says this leaves him more time for work he enjoys, including developing video ideas, and points viewers to Microsoft’s ROI of AI guide.
