Requirements for the Chat Service

The Heedify Chat Service is built natively on Microsoft Teams and the Microsoft Bot Framework, providing a seamless integration for enterprise communication. This model allows organizations to extend Teams capabilities with intelligent chat experiences powered by the Bot Framework, while maintaining the security and compliance of the Microsoft 365 ecosystem.
