Tiina Rytkönen, Sven Seidenberg and Tobias Tiehmann from the Rencore product team walk through what shipped in 2026, from reviews in the Teams app to custom metadata and governance for Claude Enterprise (Preview) and ChatGPT Enterprise (Preview), and what they are building next.

Key takeaways
-
Reviews put decisions with the people who own the content
In the Teams app, owners review owners, members, guests and site and file access step by step, in plain language. Admins choose the scope of each review, the deadline and whether a comment is required, and can export completed reviews for audit.

Nova and Access reviews retire at the end of 2026
Reviews only run in the Rencore Teams app, so moving from Nova is also how you get reviews. You can roll the Teams app out one feature at a time, starting with workspaces, and switch on more as owners get used to it.

Custom metadata brings your business into governance
Departments, cost centres, data classification and projects become part of the inventory. Capture them at provisioning or by CSV import, fill gaps through reviews, and use them to scope policies, cut false positives and report cost by department. Custom metadata is in preview.

One inventory for Microsoft 365 and the AI beyond it
Claude Enterprise (Preview) and ChatGPT Enterprise (Preview) users are matched to the same people in Microsoft 365, so you can see who holds which seats, spend by department and licences nobody uses. Rencore reads metadata only, never chat transcripts or prompts.

AI prepares, you decide
The direction for AI in Rencore: it spots issues and prepares a policy or automation, but an admin approves every action, your permissions apply, and anything AI-generated is marked as such. Next on the roadmap is an MCP connector for the AI tool you already use.

The people building the product
Tiina leads the teams building Rencore's governance platform for Microsoft 365, Copilot and AI agents, and its move into governing AI beyond Microsoft. She has led product and technology teams for more than 20 years.
Sven works on making Microsoft 365 governance usable for people who aren't IT admins. He owned the Rencore Teams app end to end and co-authored "Teach Yourself Visually Microsoft Teams".
Tobias works on Microsoft 365 governance and security at Rencore. He joined in 2026 after more than a decade in IT and information security, most recently responsible for BaFin, DORA and ISO 27001 compliance.
You are still in the driver's seat. You are the one approving, because you have the expert knowledge as admins. The agent enables and amplifies you. It does not replace you.
