AI at Bamboo: Bringing Intelligent Solutions to SharePoint



By Matt DiPasquale, Bamboo Solutions

At Bamboo, innovation has always been at the core of what we do. As we look toward the future, Artificial Intelligence (AI) represents one of the most transformative technologies available — and we’re thrilled to share how we’re incorporating AI into our products to make SharePoint smarter, more intuitive, and even more valuable for your organization.

 


Our Mission Stays the Same

As exciting as AI is, our core mission hasn’t changed:


  • High Value, Low Cost

Our goal is to deliver solutions that make a real impact without breaking your budget. We believe AI should be accessible, practical, and cost-effective.


  • SharePoint as the Gateway

SharePoint is the hub for so much organizational knowledge. We’re committed to leveraging it as the entry point for AI-driven insights, providing users with the best possible experience for interpreting data from multiple sources—without adding complexity.


  • A Curated AI Experience

AI is powerful, but unmanaged AI can lead to unpredictable results. That’s why we’re putting administrators in control, allowing them to configure and guide the AI experience so that users get the right results, every time.


  • Control and Choice for Every Organization

We understand that AI isn’t for everyone right now. That’s why all of our AI features are optional. You can disable them completely, and no AI services will run without your explicit configuration and consent. Your environment, your rules.
