When a light turns worse
Connect the measured bill
The people you named get one card in Teams, that day. Aristo watches and warns. Hard limits stay in your Microsoft 365 admin center.
How this is measured
The measured dollars come from your Azure Cost Management export; until it is connected these lights run on a labeled estimate.
Estimates use Aristo-mediated consumption and may under-count. Seats are counted from Microsoft license records and the Copilot usage report.
Consumption source: Illustrative consumption scenario.
🛡️ The traffic light that can't become surveillance
Aristo governs the aggregate — org and team totals only, never a person. A team smaller than 5 people is never shown here at all.
Other teams — 2 teams shown together, so that no group of fewer than five people is shown on its own.
And this is an alert, not a cap. Aristo watches and tells you; the cap itself lives in your Microsoft spending policy, and Aristo never stops Microsoft's billing.
Where the real stop lives, portal by portal
M365 admin · Power Platform · Azure
The per-person bill already lives in your Microsoft 365 admin center's Copilot credits report (Reports → Usage → Microsoft 365 Copilot → Credits); that is the right home for it.
The real stop lives with Microsoft, and it lives in a different place for each path: tenant, group and user spending limits in your Microsoft 365 admin center; capacity-pack allocation and monitoring — plus per-agent Copilot Studio limits — in the Power Platform admin center; and your pre-purchase pool in the Azure portal. Knowing which door to walk through is half the job — this page tells you which one, and why, before you go.
Bands are computed from your own thresholds against 2026-09 consumption. Every figure carries its basis: measured from your Cost Management export, counted from your Microsoft license records, or a labeled estimate that under-counts.
