Microsoft 365 Copilot License for Small Business Question

Hi! I'm the Global Admin for Microsoft 365 for a small company. Recently the CEO wanted to try Microsoft 365 Copilot(not the chat!) and I purchased a license for him. No one else have a license, not even me. So I purchased the license and assign it to him through the admin portal. So far he hasn't been able to use anything else but the chat. What am I missing here? I 've been checking settings and such and everything seems right. Any advice?

    Do you have the same issue if using the M365Copilot desktop app ?

      Hi! Thanks for answering. Yes. Our small company have a Microsoft 365 Business Standard Subscription. I bought one Microsoft 365 Copilot License ($30 user/month) just for my CEO. I've been reading something about a tenant license?? Not sure I fully understand this. Maybe that's what I'm missing.
