Microsoft Stream a part of Office 365 Business Premium?
Hi Brian, no it's not included "Microsoft Stream is not included in the Business Premium or Business Essentials plans" but it is available as a standalone offering as well. More details are here - https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/stream/license-overview.
I just heard that too.
MicrosoftWe announced on 7/12 that the AI features (speech to text transcript and face detection) will move down to all the Enterprise, Frontline, Education, and Stream Plan 1 licenses.
AI-powered features available to more customers
As part of our commitment to empower people and organizations with AI, we are expanding the availability of intelligent features in Stream, including:
- Speaker timelines that use facial detection to identify who is talking, so you can easily jump to a particular speaker in the recording.
- Speech-to-text and closed captions that capture the event in a readable form and make the content more accessible for everyone
- Transcript search and timecodes that let you quickly find moments that matter in a video.
Later this quarter, these features will become available in all enterprise, firstline and education plans of Office 365, as well as Stream Plan 1.
But we haven't announced any changes to the Small Business licenses.
We in the product group have been advocating for this business planning change in the past along with the change to push down the AI features to all enterprise/edu licenses. The AI licensing change happened, so it's still possible for the small business license change to happen too, but it hasn't happened yet.
Thank you Marc!
